    If the fight was in England? obviously some rounds were scored because they were in Germany was a close fight. 1 or 2 rounds either way can't complain

    The idea of German being corrupted place towards hometown fighters is bs or at least over exxagerated. It is more like Nowadays most of the Big Events are placed at Germany and it is somewhat mecca of Boxing. There is no more robberies other bs than anywhere else it is just German and boxing there is now in spotlights.

    England is actualyl one of the worst places to Fight as a Foreign fighter. You literally have to kill ´there to win a match.

    Murray is being interviewed. He isn't at all bitter, just glad to have proven he belongs at this level.

    He says he warmed into it and went the 12 rounds after some shaky early going.

    The interviewer credits trainer Oliver Harrison with Murray's success, and calls him a genius at game-planning. Harrison says that had Murray done a bit more of what he was supposed to in the first three rounds he'd have had the win.

    Murray's promoter (one Mr. Ricky Hatton) now balances his fat turkey jowls on the microphone and says that Murray did good but "we are in Germany after all :yep".

    haha funny scorecards! think Sturm is getting back all those perceived dubious decision (most of them went okay imo) working against him. no way Murray wins this, although he did a good job double covering and frustrating Sturm, who I thought was rather poor. Murray appeared to have to snap on the punches, only haymakers were dangerous. for sturm to struggle with this guy probably means he is in decline.
