Murray-Mitchell: John Getting Tough Training in Germany

WBO Intercontinental lightweight title challenger John Murray is enjoying a tough training camp in Germany ahead of his clash with Kevin Mitchell.

The pair meet in Frank Warren's big North 'n' South card at London's ExCeL Arena on July 9.

A possible world title shot is on the line for the winner.

In order to be in the best shape of his life, Murray has headed to Germany with trainer Joe Gallagher and world title contender Matt Macklin.

Macklin challenges Felix Sturm for the WBA middleweight title this weekend.

"It's great to have a change of scene," said Murray. "Preparations were great in Manchester, and they've been just as good in Germany.
