    Murphy TKO3
     
  3. Better than nothing I guess, but the lad he beat in his last fight was terrible.

    I'd hate to have been one of the dozen guys that lost to him.

    Theophane will beat him easily I think

    A 5'3 Light welterweight?

    Don't know much about Ben Murphy but his record doesn't look too bad to be fair. 2 close losses in prizefighter, a 39-38 points defeat and a closeish defeat to John Watson and he was the first man to beat Gary Buckland.

    Looks too small though and Theophane is pretty decent.

    He's a light weight with losses to journeymen. I think he might get TKOd in this. All credit for taking the fight though.

    My choice of replacement would have been Carl Johanneson

    Murphy will beat theophane i reckon! upset of the year and look at his record its decieving he hasnt had the luxury of racking up wins over Daniel Thorpe and Paval Senkovs hes been robbed in a few of them defeats aswell should be a classic.
