Murray vs Khan

Your critisisms are aimless.

 

Yeah i do believe Khan has better accuracy timing power than Murray, his early stoppages would attest to this. Murray takes 5 rounds to get going.

 

Amir Khan, will make Murray retire and look like Al Murray after they meet.

There is always a punches a chance, but that's a very slim chance and a boxer should never relie on that. Amir Khan is just to fast and just too slick..........

 

I dont see why murray is so talked about here. Hes not special and he is slow and predictable. Mcalister and 5 ko wins, he would have beaten him if he had some power. Against khan he would have a substantial size disadvantage and speed disadvantage. Khan wins on accumalation in a gomez manner.

 

'In a Gomez manner' . Gomez dropped Khan and had him hurt from a bodyshot. Murray proved last night he can punch to the body with some venom and has enough power overall to stop Khan.

 

To look at if from another perspective, what limits Khan from being world class? his chin, what limits Murray from being world class? everything.

 

He's a lot faster and slicker then Prescott too... result L KO 1.

 

Yeah it must be that one. I recall Thaxton sagging from body shots in one of his defeats.

 

That you can't see what is effective about Murrays style is testimony to your lack of knowledge about the sport. It just makes you look a bit foolish.

 

Plain to see really, pressure fighter, who lacks power, speed or any other world class attribute, basically a poor mans Ricky Hatton.

 

There is no stylistic comparison between Gomez and Murray. They're completely different fighters.

 

Gomez could ko Murray i think.

 

.... Are you intentionally been a bit... you know.... thick?

 

Khan has speed, but does that define skill set?

For skills, maybe you should look at Murray creating openings vs McAllister. Timing his right hand over McA's jab, landing his own heavy jabs, cornering the slippery Scotsman, getting a bit better each round. Applying pressure is also a part of skill, so is using good timing to deal with a faster opponent.

Surely you don't think Murray just walked forward, and landed shots when Lee "let him"?

Winning a long hard fight like that shows concentration, skill, stamina. Skill doesn't just mean winning every exchange in every second in every round. It means using a plan to carve out the W.

Murray also showed skill winning the inside battle v Meager, picking his shots well and breaking Meager down with a varied attack.

McAllister is a former light welter, actually looked bigger than Murray, fresh and fast and determined. Why doesn't Khan have fights v ppl like that? Khan has fought mainly super feathers.

 

Obviously not as 'thick' as Murray nuthuggers, time will reveal all.
