    VERY unlikely, he likes Tokyo too much (Japanese friends have said he'll never leave Japan for a fight). Yamanaka would be the better bet. Murata will make his US debut next year (that's all but signed and sealed)

    Murata is a badass I'm very impressed with what I've seen of him.

    Hate to say this but in my view Lomachenko fights like the biggest ***** I have ever seen out of a professional prizefighter. The way he backs off without throwing anything, and his unwillingness to engage, stand his ground, or trade punches is dreadful for me to look at.

    Arum is probably salivatng over the idea of a Murata Ramirez fight in the future.

    That fight would be savage but i doubt Ramirez stays at MW much longer. Murata/Khytrov rematch in the future hopefully.

    I'd love to see a rematch between Loma and Russell. That's what boxing is about.
