    Any three of them fighting each other would be worthy of a world title fight.

    Rumours going round that Murray has got a big fight on Merseyside,
    in a venue that hasn't hosted boxing before. Haven't got a clue what
    it could be.

    wouldnt the only 2 venues on merseyside be either Goodison or anfield?

    and being honest, i couldnt see Murray filling either. unless he's fighting john Conteh :yep

    Some Murray Quotes...
    "I read the news from Eddie Hearn about the offer to myself to fight Darren Barker. This is a fight I'd love to make.

    "This offer came after weeks and weeks of my fantastic team, Hatton Promotions, chasing Eddie Hearn and Matchroom to make this fight.

    "My team have offered them a lot more money for Darren to box me than they offered me to box him and a date in April. My matchmaker Richard Poxon got a response, more or less saying 'Take it or leave it'.

    "I was in the office with Richard and Ricky Hatton when his reply came. This isn't the response of a team that wants a fight to happen.

    Would be a good fight, I'd actually fancy Murray he looks to be stonger at the weight.

    It will depend on Murray fighting a scouser or scousers being on the bill
    to how many tickets get sold. Aintree seems more realistic than St Helens.
