    Yes, you're stating a fact. He didn't get dropped. He was beaten from pillar to post but stayed upright.

    And?

    The bottom line is, when Martinez' knee was in shreds and the moment of truth; the call to greatness appeared for Murray, he shelled up threw no punches and let Martinez be the one who gutted out the victory. Murray, had his moment, deferred and is in possession of not a damn thing.

    Lets see if, he has learned something and if that window or moment appears again, will he have that something extra to take advantage? Surviving rounds and making it close gets you what? no one cares, or will remember years from now.

    Rosado is in many ways bigger than GGG and can't cut to 154. He has said that many times. Its also how the opponent approach the fight-gabe was fighting to survive.

    Still there was some indications that with active footwork you can cause some problems to GGG. Unfortunately Murray does not posses those qualities. U need a good and active footwork added with strong face and stamina plus some power to give GGG something to think about.

    Did you actually watch that fight?
    Did you see how gabe "survived" by running for his life, using athleticism that the stiff wooden Murray does not have?

    Did you see the state of Pinkys face?
    GGG beat the tattoos off him, and he'll do the same to Murray, assuming Murray has Gabes heart and courage, and doesn't fold quick.:hi:

    Murray is no pushover. He's got heart, a decent defence, and a good jab and right hand. But styles make fight, and I'm afraid he'll be on the defensive the whole fight, which will weaken his offense. Like everyone else, I imagine he'll be broken down and stopped.

    Murray is a tough fighter, a good fighter, but Golovkin will knock him out!!!

    Len,

    i really think you should refrain from posting on any topic that concerns Irish fighters or Middleweights, as you clearly can't remain impartial.

    I don't comment on fights unless i've seen them, and i see them for what they are and i don't let Nationality or Favouritism cloud my view.

    Rosado lost due to cuts, his corner pulled him as his face was getting minced. At no point do i remember Rosado " running for his life " nor taking a one sided hammering, if anything Rosado landed more leather on Golovkin than most, and was trying to let big shots go in every round.

    Go check some of the comments on the Murray threads in the British, you're being laughed off the forum mate.

    Heres some facts for you AGAIN Len

    Macklin is English

    Lee is English

    Murray would beat the breaches off both of them.

    And the only person who rates Sturm, is you.

    Notice how i didn't finish with a Dismissive/condescending smiley.

    It wasn't a one sided hammering throughout the fight, Rosado did have some early "success" but it did get progressively worse and worse for him, he got broken down and was getting really beat up by the end, in the last round he was running for his life almost literally.
