Agree with this. I was very impressed with his fights leading into that and got to see him from up close on the Crawford-Postol card. I had him pegged on the fast track for pound for pound stardom but the last two fights as you say he's putting too much into every shot and trying too hard to force a KO. Soon as this fight got made it appealed to me because Quigg studies his opponent and throws nice, straight punches and has good technique.I LOVE Valdez, but I am worried about this fight. Marriaga and Servania both gave him hell, but it doesn't seem like he's improved much or made any adjustments. He has awesome power, but throws everything at 100%, so opponents are starting to adjust to it once they make it through a few rounds. I think if Quigg survives the first 4 or 5 rounds he might get a late stoppage victory
Quigg is tough too. Fought with a broken jaw against Frampton and won the late rounds but started too slow. Frampton may not be as strong as Valdez but he's a better, more experienced boxer. That was also a huge grudge match and super fight in England whereas this one he's just the opponent so less pressure.
Valdez may be too strong but if Quigg weathers it and is in the fight he will close the gap and make it a hard one. I'm picking Valdez but it's about 60/40 for me. It's messed up to say this but I think Roach is the reason I'm giving the extra 10% to Valdez at this point lol.Last edited by chrisJS; 03-07-2018, 07:40 PM.Comment
