This wiil be a truly AWFUL spectacle. Apart from the obvious shortcomings of the fighters, Woods in particular, no boxing event in Oz is complete without some or all of the following: Dreadful refereeing. Loose ropes/lousy ring. Commentary that makes Skys worst look genius. etc etc etc.....
Wood to win in extra time, probably by a point. Wood to win the tackle count. Penalties to Murray 8 to nil. Wood on report, suspended for 4 weeks after tallying up carry over points.
what are you on about shortcomings? murray is a prozefighter, british, commonwealth champion. drew to sturm for the wba superworld mw belt and almost beat Martinez for the wbc mw belt after dropping Martinez. you ****ing idiot.
Murray fans sure are a touchy lot. Murray is hardly a fighter without shortcomings. No one is. Specifically Murray is a very straightforward conventional boxer. Much of his success has been due to his size and bulk. He is stiff slow wooden and upright. He is one paced and can't change gears. Strangely for such a huge middle, he is not all that hard a puncher. The danger for him against such a messy mauling brawling spoiler like Wood is that he might not have the speed or subtlety to defuse Wood, avoid fouls, clinches etc This is really a no win scenario for him. Win big any people will go" So what". Should he struggle at all against Wood his stock will fall. Happy now?
