Voted for Munroe but given the right learning fights both Quigg and Frampton will be able to beat him next year

Certainly not a forgone conclusion any way of the three. Munroe is certainly a harder puncher than Jamie Arthur and equally massive for the weight (which was giving Quigg some problems). At his best (and we don't really know if that is behind him given the quality of opponent post Nikiosha) he can do the 12 rounds better than Arthur also.

In many ways Munroe is quite similar to Arthur, but that little bit better in most departments.

At this stage i would have to say Munroe is far and away our best British fighter at the weight.

Quigg by a mile, he's made his last two opponents quit in ways that's not pretty to watch. I really think Munroe and Frampton should stay away from him (They probably will)

I think Frampton, but lets find out eh, promoters? How about we match the top boys - who are in form - up for once. Lets see if its fun. Stick Quigg Vs Munroe, and Frampton Vs John Simpson on a card- then match the winners , and the losers.

My reckoning is this.

Quigg steers clear of Frampton and respectably fights a european champ or similar.

Munroe doesn't want to mix with quigg or frampton and wants to 'stay' at world class.

Frampton is forced down an alternative route and eventually, in 18 months or so picks up a perinial world tidle. (not title).

Sounds about right. But Munroe better watch he doesnt turn into the next Alex Arthur. Fighting journeyman avoiding title fights and still thinking he's at World level.

Barry would put Frampton in with Quigg tomorrow if he had the chance, im not convinced Quiggs team would be as keen. Frampton looks like he could be the business.

Munroe has fought well at world level in the champions backyard but needs start getting a head of steam going again in a chase for another world title tilt.

Frampton and Quigg are still 18 months or so behind Munroe at the moment. I'd like to see Quigg fight Simpson next and Frampton in against Arthur.

I've gone for Quigg, he impressed me the way he came back from a sticky patch in round 4. Jamie Arthur was a good opponent for him and when the end came he was giving him a good old fashioned pasting.

Munroe seems to have stalled since his world title challenge and he certainly didn't prove anything against a poor opponent on Saturday.

Frampton does look good though but he's still a bit behind the other two for the simple reason that he hasn't got as much experience yet. If this question is asked in a couple of years time I dare say Frampton will be the outright favourite.

I enjoyed Framptons performance the most out of all 3. He showed very good patience, picked his shots well and showed good defence. I like the fact he didnt go steaming in against Hughes who has feather fists. It's a good attitude because defensive mindset will be more firmly in place when he fights people who can deliver bombs. Quigg looked very decent as well and came back from adversity which is always good to see

In saying that, I dont see how either beat Munroe. I think he is a little bit too big and experienced for both of them and would back him to finish both of them off before judges got involved via bodyshot accumulation

At this point in time Munroe beats them both pretty easily. It's unfair to compare them though as they are at totally different stages of their career

Munroe but the gap is closing. If he had stayed with Maloney im pretty sure he would have had another world title shot by now by challenging for the IBF title.
