    Frustating not to have this fight set already.

    Should be doing it in Vegas instead of Japan

    Fight should have happend by now and we should know if GGG is done or if he has a bit left in thank. Can't believe it's been dragged out so long.

    A fight like this deserves to take place at the Tokyo Dome.

    Japan is like 2nd or 3rd in the world for new daily Covid cases. I don't think that's going to help things in the near future.

    Why Vegas? No American is part of it

    GGG lives in LA area and Murata is affiliated with Top Rank

    Can't believe people are giving Murara almost no shot. Golovkin is ripe for the picking.

    Because people who have watched Murata know that he is terrible. He is the definition of a paper champion, he won the fake Regular belt and only has the legit WBA Super because he was elevated.

    Even GGG as aged and inactive as he is beats Murata with ease. The only thing Murata has going for him is that he’s tough, and may be able to survive to see the final bell and lose a unanimous decision instead of getting stopped.

    He's not elite, but he's not terrible. He's an above average guy and is tough out for anyone.

    I think it just never stopped being on the backburners as "coming in December" in my head, after the year - and date - changed. :sisi1

    Murata is just as slow as old ggg without the power and technique
