    I don't blame Murray for this sort of start, Groves is a very fast starter normally.

    He can't let Groves slip in to a comfortable lead so I expect him to start engaging maybe after 2-3.

    Golovkin played with Murray and carried him to get the rounds in when he wanted him out he forced the stoppage muray also was trying to survive

    here i think groves will want something to prove and just knock him out as soon as possible

    Can you imagine the buzz if prime Naseem Hamed was around today?
    Especially with Islamophobia being at it's highest, he'd be such a big figure.
