    Indeed. Seriously, he has no chance of winning this fight, which makes it even more incredible if he fights 300% and somehow KO's Martinez.
    That's not having a dig at Murray, Martinez is exceptional and is fighting in Argentina. He's also a credit to the sport.

    odds on a martinez unanimous decision are 3/1 which i fully expect to be the outcome , id like to think murray will last the distance and give a good account of himself but come up short.. good luck to the guy..takes man balls to go face a brilliant argentinian in argentina

    Martinez probably thinks he is another ideal opponent for him. He is probably right and he wants to put a show on. He may find he can't have it all his own way though and to me has looked to be in decline for a bit. The pressure is all on the champion,you never know this might be the night he grows old in the ring. I hope so.

    Martinez will school murray all night long. He wil be soaking up punches on his arms and gloves.. Mid rounds his arms will drop and martinez will hit him when he likes murray is too slow and just not skilled enough. Murray will plod towards him taking all kinds of punishment I want murray to win but it iust wont happen. Barker is better than murray and even tho he done well sometime your best isnt good enough..

    Martinez tko 7

    Murray's lack of power will be is downfall, Sexy will hurt him with almost every punch landed and puts a horrible and probably long beating on him until he gets stopped.

    Unless Martinez has got old overnight, I expect it to be a one-sided stoppage win in 3-4 rounds.

    Think this will be a one sided massacre unless Martinez gets old over night.(Pre set excuse there!) Murray just looks so unexceptional by comparison, slower, less powerfull. It should be target practice for Martinez. Love to be proved completely wrong though.

    Martinez when presured isnt as good as we think he is. The mans declining every fight, imo murray just needs to use his stamina and conditioning and he has a chance

    Not a chance it is going to be totally one sided I would be surprised if Murray even wins a round

    That's how I feel Murray doesn't have the power to keep Martinez at bay I just see a bit of a drubbing here.

    Got to say im going with Sergio for this one, probably by late stoppage, but no money is changing hands with the bookies... got a sneaking felling for Murray (home thats not just British blinkers on!)

    Murray will win by late stoppage, Murray is a better fighter than JCC, Barker, Macklin for me. Martinez is on the decline, he has him at the right time. I do think Murray has enough power to wear him down later on, Martinez's punch resistance is fading.
