Jamie is the most under-rated British champion - must unify to get more recognition, or step up to 122 - think he would struggle against Quigg (power) and Frampton (equal speed, more power).
Best bet is to unify at 118 and keep defending well, then cash out with good fights at 122.
Soft defense. Can't see McDonnell beating Yamanaka, Tete or Moreno, let alone moving up to beat the top Brits at the next weight class. Safer to fight somebody like Haskins who he can beat and make good money doing it
