Monte Carlo is a nice place to be. :yep Hope this fight gets made. Murray is NO joke and I would favor him to beat Quillin.
Good on Murray for going away from home again to take on a champion. Whatever they say about Murray he is a hard, tough man if GGG manages to stop him in the first half of the fight it will only enhance his credentials.
LOL @ all the uneducated Yanktards saying Murray is a poor opponent. He's one of the top Middleweights in the world. Who else is there? Martinez? Murray has beaten him. Quillin? ****, Murray would clean his clock Sturm? Murray drew with him and, given how Sturm is fading now, Id fancy Murray to win a rematch. Barker? Very good boxer but I'd put Murray ahead of him Geale? Lost to Barker Murray is the BEST opponent for GGG. FACT.
Martin Murray posted on twitter about an hour ago that he isn't fighting GGG on Feb 1st, but they're fighting on the same bill.
Macklin Murray will be a fine addition to his list of to 10 MW's. Murray propelled to top 5 after what I scored as a 1 point victory over Sergio. I worry about Murray's 9 month inactivity slightly but mostly his lack of depth in resume to draw from to feel any sort of confidence in his chances against Golovkin. Sturm fight was good but he wasn't the first or last to have that success on him and as I said the Sergio fight was insanely impressive win or lose.
Murray says it's not happening in Feb. But he's fighting on the Froch undercard and then on Feb that will set him in good stead for a showdown with GGG in the summer.
It's smart for him... but disappointing for me. I must admit I didn't realize he was fighting on the Froch undercard. That's in 2 weeks.
:think I still hope is 3G vs Murray on 1st February. :yep if not, who else ? Mora, Rubio or Geale would be decent opponents for 3G IMO. I don't want to see 3G taking another C level bloated out jr MW ala Ishida, Rosado or Stevens. nono
Here's the text copied from the tweet: Martin Murray ‏@MartinMurrayBox 3h Just to let people know that I'm not fighting Golovkin on Feb 1st but we're fighting on the same bill. Looking forward to it when it happens
