    I think Murray is more or less finished. He failed the brain scan and then took the big break. I am from Manchester and its well known Murray has been an absolute party beast. Hes abused his body badly with cocaine and drink and other stuff. His family pleaded with him not to return to boxing. Crolla is fresh and on a roll. Hes fighting at a decent level now but i fancy Murray to come out and give Crolla major problems early with his pressure but Crolla will box and move and weather the storm. Murray has a terrible defence and Crolla will break him down and when it gets to the 2nd half of the fight he will start to tee off on Murray. Ref or corner save Murray late.

    Crolla TKO 11

    Did anyone else think Murray looked weird at the weigh in. He looks a bit scrawny and his condition wasn't great. He was on weight though

    I think Murray still has enough in him to UD Crolla, or even stop him late.

    Crolla is well overrated, really depends what Murray still has in the tank

    Just looking at Murray on box rec. I remember Murray as a beast but when I look at his record he hasn't really beaten anyone bar buckland. I fancied him for the job tonight even though I want crolla to win but I'm really on the fence now

    Crolla is a lovely lad, but it would be nice to see the smugness knocked from Joe Gallagher's face tonight. I'll go for Murray to win.

    Opposite I thought he looked very healthy in the face, plenty of colour in those cheeks.

    I think when he beat Buckland,the Welsh lad was at his best,and did very well afterwards with his wins over Gary Sykes and others. But I think I saw what you did in an interview after the weigh in. He just looked a bit different. Rumours of bad living not always true,but I see no reason not to believe the Manchester poster on here. Certainly not the first time its been said. Was the same as you but Im looking at it a bit differently now,again like you.

    I imagine Crolla/Murray ring-walks will be roundabout 22:00.

    I like crolla but the way Gallagher has acted has made me want Murray to win.
    Joe Gallagher is a wanker and looks like someone from shameless the scruffy ball bag.
