    That’s because Murata completely abandoned the body work. He could have won the fight if he didn’t completely forget about that. I don’t understand why the commentators pointed out that Golovkin was hurt from body shots, then said nothing as Murata didn’t throw a single body shot for four rounds in a row. Why didn’t Murata’s corner tell him to target the body? Very strange, reminded me of the fight where Oscar was jabbing Floyd to bits and then just stopped throwing it.

    It was a different era with no Super Middleweight division. That division formed when Marvelous Marvin retired after the robbery decision “They gave to Sugar Ray Leonard of ALL THE PEOPLE “ in Marvin’s words.

    So essentially you’re saying every fighter has to move up in weight because of the modern era? That’s ridiculous.

    I had no idea he was making that sort of money, good for him. Why do you think a fan would care in the slightest about how much money he is making? Haha is this a rap video or something?

    When you look at the clear discomfort Murata caused him with those bodyshots, it becomes a tangible possibility.

    My reasoning has been stated elsewhere, but fight III is pointless in a sporting sense by my reckoning. It makes money, though, so I guess it's inevitable.

    He wouldnt write GGG off because he beat Canelo twice and is still a beast.

    Well Lil G was obviously not confident was he otherwise the fight would have been made. I notice you did not mention Ward as you know Ward would have physically abused Lil G.

    the antipodes, I would love to visit this country tbh. It looks like a wonderful place. But I dont think I will be able to do it (at least soon), it's a pitty. It looks like a lovely place to live in too.

    Golovlin still has those heavy hands. Hopefully he can land a nasty counter on canelo and take him out. But the ginger is fast and will land body shots.

    The longer the fight lasts the worst it gets for canelo

    Setting aside the very ridiculous notion that you can "avoid" fighters who are in a higher weight class than yourself...

    The Ward "fight" was offered when he was already signed to fight Lemuix and had a unification bout on the horizon with the winner of Canelo/Cotto. It was never a serious offer from Ward who was using GGG's hype to draw attention to his comeback to LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT (yeah Ward was totally going to meet him at a catchweight below 168; totally a feasible thing that could happen) and even if it was GGG would be a fool to consider it.

    Also, GGG wanted the fight with Froch, Froch said no and retired. There was no ducking or avoiding from either end you absolute bellend.

    Okay, settle darling. Defense against GGG is done by attacking since he can’t fight going backwards, so Murata should have still thrown
