    Murray is going to make Golovkin look a bit human in a few weeks, he won't win, but I think he goes the distance and maybe wins a few rounds.

    Because GGG is so hyped, any struggle will look like failure and the naysayers will be howling. Macklin, Stevens, rosado, geale, where all expected to give GGG some trouble, but they didn't. Now, Murray is expected to be a cakewalk, but he won't be. There are certain guys that are very beatable - but they are not easy, Murray is one of them.

    You better get your expectations in order unless you like to be let down.

    Golovkin is the best middleweight in the world today. Murray is a good fighter and Golovkin said that he hopes Murray will give him a tough fight. Murray is much bigger than Golovkin, but Golovkin will knock him out.............Geale was a former world champion and won his last fight impressively.............

    Some guys are just made to take a beating and never go down, Murray is one of those guys. The KO streak is going to stop here.

    This is going to be "surprisingly" short. Like 3 or 4 rounds.

    Expecting 8-12rd fight. Very good preparation fight for GGG style wise. Those smw are more or less the same size as Murray. Most of them (dirrell, degale, ward) fight cautiously like Murray.

    I somewhat agree... i think this fight will shock those expecting an early demolition job.

    Golovkin will walk right through Murray maybe quicker than he did Geale and Rubio.
    Why?......because Murray Really Sucks.:deal

    Murray is a solid, careful fighter with a good defense, jab and right hand. GGG has said he will prepared to go the distance against Murray, and that is wise. I'm not saying he wins the fight, but people are underrating Murray on this board.

    Unless Murray really goes for it in the first round, GGG will stalk and make his reads like he usually does.
    I'm interested to see how Murray reacts when GGG turns up the heat in the 2nd round.
    I don't see this fight going past 6 rounds

    If Murray decides his priority is to survive, it will not surprise me if he is ale to do it. Right now I have it about 50-50 between GGG by TKO, and GGG by 9-3 decision.

    Should Murray ribs hold up, I could see this being similar to Ward-Bika. Though I think Golovkin wins the rounds more clearly than Ward did.

    Murray has no power.
    Murray has no head movement.
    Murray lays on the ropes a lot.
    Murray has poor body shot defense.
    Murray's chin has never really been tested.

    GGG will rip him to pieces.

    Sturm Murray was a draw at best or a close loss for Murray.
    Martinez beat Murray on points, the only reason Martinez couldn't hurt him was because his lead leg was injured and he couldn't sit down on his punches properly, yet Martinez still hurt him late according to Murray.

    Murray is not as elusive as Geale and yes even Rubio he'll be GGG's punching bag.
