    5 days from now, in Monaco Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin defends his IBO/WBA Super and WBC interim belts against 2 time challenger and 'should be' linear champ Martin Murray.
    The odds are very wide in Golovkin's favor, and not many people expect Martin to have much of a chance against him. But what you think will happen?
    Will he be the first to make it into the championship rounds, or even the entire distance? Or even upset the odds in a major way and end up victorious.
    A stoppage in his favor seems out of the question, or is it?

    damn... screwed up the poll :wall

    last option should be,

    5. Gennady Golovkin by KO/TKO/DQ
    So lets take option 3 off, and make that the Golovkin by KO/TKO/DQ one.

    I think the GGG hype will die down abit after this fight. I expect Murray to land clean alot.

    I think this may actually go to points, murray will defend and try and spoil the fight, and probably lose 12-0 on the scorecards.

    I have never really seen what the fuss about Martin Murray has been! He has ok technique but gets himself into top shape and isn't scared to have a go but imo Gennady Golovkin is in a different league when it comes to boxing ability and I see nothing else than a GGG win.

    Will Martin take him deep? Possibly but it wouldn't surprise me if he gets finished before 6.

    They all have a plan that's going to work against Golovkin. Like the others, I think Murray will be totally thrown when he realises how good Golovkin's feet are. He'll end up places he doesn't want be and usually against other fighters, wouldn't be. When this starts to happen, only a matter of when then .

    Unfortunately I think he may get a bit of a sustained beating due to his heart and toughness, would love to be wrong just don't see it

    I may throw some money down on Golovkin points decent odds on that could see him dominating every round and Murray taking it although that is unlikely. What we can be sure of though is that Murray will not be winning barring some kind of super natural event.

    Murray should have lost to Khomitsky not all that long ago.
