    according to the main site GGG is going to be ringside for the Murray Spade fight, so it looks likely they will fight.

    I actually believe that Murray lost to Sergey Khomitsky or however you spell that guys name. Murray is over rated in my opinion and I think Golovkin stops him.

    Odds: 1/16 Golovkin, 8/1 Murray.

    For sure he be the best GGG faced to date. If he can hang with GGG passed round 7 it be a achievement. How will GGG react with someone who isn't buzzed in a couple of rounds? will he take risks and get tagged?

    but i agree GGG be favourite. MM hasn't got the movement i think you need to beat GGG.

    If Murray manages to go the distance it will be an achievement. I wish him luck.

    Don't get why people keep saying 'how will GGG react when a fighter doesn't go down after a few round'...do you expect him to forget where he is and start Morris dancing? He'll carry on fighting the same way he always does until he either knocks the guy out late or wins a decision.

    This will be over before the 5th if Murray shells up like he usually does, the only way to make golovkin miss is upper body movement and even then he still gets to the guy.

    For me you need to be a BIG inside genuius and be able to have great movement to at least better GGG's. None are MM advantages.

    Ward is only person i can see who can nuetralise and give GGG something he never seen before.

    Murray from a technical standpoint is at about the same level as Carl froch.

    Murray has a better win than froch too, his robbery defeat against the hype job Martinez.

    Froch has only ever fought one elite fighter and got utterly destroyed in a one sided beatdown over 12 rounds.

    Murray is the most uninspiring basic boxer to step in the ring in the last 20 years.

    He is extremely basic and ordinary. He has no killer instinct. He just coasts in the ring.

    Awful boxer.
