Quigley had an extremely promising amateur career, which saw him rise to number one in both the AIBA European and World amateur rankings. His place in the Ireland team had seemed secured for the 2016 Summer Olympics, however he decided to turn professional instead.

In February 2016, Golden Boy V.P. Eric Perez confirmed that Quigley would be returning to the ring in late March on another card at Fantasy Springs. Perez stated "he'll fight there and then after that we'll bring him back, possibly on the Canelo card." Canelo is booked to defend his titles against England's Amir Khan, at the new T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.On 26 March, Quigley took on Freddy Lopez, who stepped in as a late replacement for Dante Moore. The fight was another quick finish for Quigley, with him targeting the body from the bell and scoring a knockdown in the first minute. Lopez stood back to his feet only for Quigley to continue the onslaught to his body. It wasn't long before Lopez was down again, giving Quigley another first-round knockout. The victory brought Quigley's record to 10-0, with 9 knockouts.

On 17 December 2016, Quigley fought on the undercard of Bernard Hopkins last fight against Joe Smith Jr.. Quigley faced hard-punching Puerto Rican Jorge Melendez (30-7, 28 KO's). Melendez came out fast but Quigley was able to counter him and Melendez was dropped 3 times in the first round before his corner threw in the towel.

Quigley's first fight of 2015 came as part of Golden Boy's "LA Fight Club", this time held at the Belasco Theatre in Los Angeles. Quigley's opponent was Lanny Dardar in the final fight of the night, and in yet another completely one sided contest, the American received two standing eight counts before an inevitable stoppage just 93 seconds into the first round.

His next fight was against Mississippi based, Tom Howard. Quigley fought him on 11 July 2015, at the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena. The American had won 8 of his 11 professional fights, and had never been KO'd in his career. Despite this, Quigley picked up where he had left off against Joshua Snyder, outclassing his opponent from the first bell. Howard had to pick himself off the canvas twice during the fight, before the referee eventually stepped in and put an end to it in the second round.

In April 2014, it was announced that Quigley was turning professional and had signed a promotional contract with Golden Boy Promotions in Los Angeles. After signing, Golden Boy founder and president, Oscar De La Hoya said "Jason Quigley is part of the next generation of European boxers who are about to make their mark on the international stage". He went on to say "It also doesn’t hurt that he has the great nation of Ireland behind him, and I know they will support him wherever he goes."

Quigley made his professional debut on 12 July 2014 as a middleweight, against Howard Reece at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The fight featured on the undercard of Canelo vs Lara, and Quigley won the bout via TKO, just 82 seconds into the first round. "I’m absolutely buzzing", Quigley said afterwards. "I’m delighted to be on a show like this and to win is unbelievable".

On 30 October 2014, Quigley continued his unbeaten start to professional boxing. Fighting in Plymouth, Massachusetts, an area rich with Irish support, Quigley fought Greg McCoy. The fight did not make it out of the first round, with a Quigley left hook, right straight combination sending McCoy to the canvas just 2 minutes and 39 seconds into the bout.

In March 2013, Quigley took gold at the Ústí nad Labem Grand Prix in the Czech Republic. He beat Czech native Vit Kral by a score of 20-6 in his first fight, before defeating Chinese fighter Zhou Yunfei 14-7. In the final, he met Serbia's Aleksandar Drenovak for another 14-6 victory.

In May 2012, Quigley competed at the 'Algirdas Socikas' Multi-Nations tournament in Kaunas, Lithuania. He overcame Estonian fighter Artjom Fjodorov, 16-6, and Lithuanian fighter Mantas Balciauskas, 11-3, before taking gold against Denmark's Matouk Belai with another dominant 18-5 win in the final. Quigley won his next gold at the 2012 European U23 Championships, in Kaliningrad, Russia. He met Germany's Dennis Radovan in the final, winning by a 17-11 decision at Kaliningrad’s Sports Palace. Quigley defeated Russian southpaw Maksim Timofeev and Moldova's Victor Carapchevschii in the previous rounds.

Quigley won gold at the 2011 'Gee Bee' Multi-Nations tournament in Helsinki, Finland, defeating English fighter Anthony Ogogo 14-5 with an acclaimed performance in the final.

Quigley boxed in the WSB for the 2011-2012 season. Organised by the AIBA, the competition was designed to offer professional boxing without competitors having to forfeit their amateur status. With twelve teams fighting across the competition, it was the LA Matadors who drafted Quigley. Quigley then lived and trained in Los Angeles where he met Russian fighter Vitali Bandarenka of Moscow Dynamo in his first bout. Quigley won the fight by unanimous decision with the judges scoring them 50-45, 48-47 and 48-47 after five rounds. Quigley's second fight was against Australian, Troy Trevor O'Meley of Bankok Elephants. He won via second-round TKO, having led 10-8, 10-7, 10-8 at the end of the first.

On 7 May, in just his 11th pro fight, Quigley took a major step up in class on the undercard of Saúl Álvarez vs. Amir Khan. Quigley faced the then 23-3 James de la Rosa of Mexico, who came in with two camps worth of preparation, having previously been scheduled to face David Lemieux in March. With Lemieux missing the contracted weight, their fight was scrapped and de la Rosa was instead booked to face Quigley in the Irishman's first 10-round fight. Despite Quigley previously going no further than 4 rounds, he passed his test with flying colors, using quick footwork, precise power punching, and disciplined boxing to hurt and outbox De la Rosa for a dominant and one-sided unanimous decision victory. All three judges scored the fight 100-90.

In 2009, Quigley participated in the European Youth Championships in Szezecin. He fought Joni Polishsuk of Finland, Catalin Paraschiveanu of Romania, Muratcan Buğra Oner of Turkey and Jaba Khocitashvili of Georgia, before defeating Emil Ahmadov of Azerbaijan 6-1 in the 69 kg final, to take home gold.
