    Thing is, I don't think by the time Murray fought Strum and Martinez they was really 'elite' h2h. Golovkin probably is.

    This goes without saying.

    Obviously he will need to keep fighting to go rounds.

    As to whether he will? I give him about 40% chance. Key will be keeping his composure when he does take a hard shot, moving, picking and countering enough to get Golovkin to reset.

    I think Murray will try and get inside and smother though, and make it ugly by imposing his physicality as he is a big MW. If he does that and keeps it up, I think he get smashed though.

    I think Murrays best.....and only....hope is to clinch GGG to death.
    Maul him with size and bulk.
    This will make for a very very ugly fight to look at. But it is his only chance.

    Problem is GGG's jab, how's he going to get past it with no head movement or a jab that's as good? With GGG's power he won't dare.

    Couldn't drop Welterweight Rosado, but he's going bully, smash, obliterate etc etc a strong, defensive fighter who will probably outweigh him by 6 or 7 lbs come fight time ?

    Only on ESB

    Golovkin was allegedly sick for this bout. Either way, Rosado can't half take a beating

    Martin Murray will be to Golovkin what Chris Byrd was to Klitschko.

    Lets get things straight......

    I deal in facts, you deal in uneducated opinion.

    Rosado was a 154lb fighter, his first fight at 160 was against Golovkin.

    Rosado has lost every fight at 160.

    Rosado has been on the canvas in 2 of his 5 fights at 160, and has also tasted the canvas at 154.

    So why was monster puncher Golovkin unable to drop him ?

    He's lost two of those fights at 160 due to the re-opening of cuts from the Golovkin fight.

    And besides, I don't see the point. It's like asking why Tyson couldn't put away Tillis.

    Rosado has paper skin, he was cut around the eyes numerous times before fighting Golovkin.

    The point is simple, Golovkin was unable to drop Rosado, the same Rosado who had been decked by Angulo at 154 and Quillin and Lemieux at 160.

    WTF has Tillis got to do with this ?

    Tillis never moved up in weight to fight Tyson, and Tillis was/has never been considered glass jawed.
