    its not like tyson-douglas... everyone was aware of mike tyson

    triple g isnt even known yet if he were to lose alot of people would have no idea

    but with true boxing fans we would know it comparable to tyson/douglas but not quite

    You could get odds of 42/1 on Douglas to beat Tyson. Murray is like 7/1

    As big as Tyson v Holyfield 1.
    I think Golovkin will start as a 1/10 on favourite at least.

    Khan knocking Floyd out in the first round. That's Douglas vs Tyson-esque shocker. There's nothing that can happen in this fight that would remotely resemble Doug-Tyson.

    I think it would be of Curry/honeyghan proportions.just cant see it happening, he can't out box nor out fight him...ggg isn't tight at the weight or shown any sign of a weak jaw. Short of Murray opening him up with a cut, he doesn't stand a chance. Not to say Murray isn't a world class middleweight it's just GGG has been that dominant.

    Not a chance Rubio and Geale are better than Murray and had better chances against GGG, Murray is over hyped he'll be destroyed in 5.

    it looks like you learned your lesson and stopped picking against ggg.I want ggg to batter murray for 12 rounds then ko him at the last second.

    In ESB that GGG is touted as a God, It would be a huge upset, then sad for Murray He could gain a lot of haters.

    Golovkin paws his jab and drops his hands when his opponent is down on the canvas. All it takes is one crooked ref to sucker punch him instead of giving his opponent a count, and he's out.

    for me personally, be the biggest upset in boxing history, obviously not by the vagas odds but personally to me a far greater upset than the douglas v Tyson upset

    for me this would be a much greater upset than the douglas Tyson.

    my reasoning is just how much greater Trip G is compared to Tyson.

    if Tyson is a 5 (going 0-10) Trip G is a 50
