Murray lost the fight before it even started

Golovkin is a walking punch bag, face first brawler who bullsrush when opening bell rings and always gets piza face.

 

hes bringing a knife to a gun fight
terrible match up

 

That's funny because GGGto me has one of the least intimidating faces in boxing to me, plus he's always smiling and happy. You'd think people would be able to stare him down and win at least the staredown, as if it means anything in the ring.

 

I like Murray but he's not the fighter he was but the fighter he was doesn't come close to ggg either.its not coincidence barker and macklin did well against Sergio aswell,Sergio was shot but still better than barker macklin and murray

 

I think Murray's OK as a guy and is a decent if not elite boxer, but I don't think he beat Sturm - he was kinda lucky to get the D in that one if I recall. A draw mighta been a reasonable result against Maravilla but it's now quite apparent that we were watching a diminished version of Sergio.

Thing is Martin was also lucky not to get a draw against Khomitsky a year ago - perhaps he wasn't at 100%, as was suggested, but it wasn't a good look, whatever the reason.

Maybe I'm being a little harsh , but I simply don't see a means by which Martin can win outside some kinda freak accident. I don't subscribe to the idea that he's somehow nervous or that the presser staredown means anything, simply that he doesn't have the tools for the job.

 

the only way I can see murray winning is if GGG gasses out in the later rounds, however GGG though isn't a slugger who closes his eyes and whirls his arms around, he's careful with his punch selection and doesn't waste many punches and much energy. My gut feeling is murray will lose late on, but come out of the fight with credit.
