Both gunning for the WBA belt.... Hassan said he wants Gabe Rosado, but Martin Murray seems to be the better option since he isn't on a large losing streak and he actually held a title at one point.
Murray is still up there for talks while N'Dam fell off for a while, but he's been back twice this year and seems to be staying active.
Who do you guys have? I didn't get a chance to watch the Murray fight.... N'Dam looked decent in his last fight (from the clips I saw though against crap opposition.... but opposition better than Tetteh).
We'll get another chance to see how he is in a month and a half. I'm counting N'Dam out as an option because he looked to have injured himself in his last fight.
Call up Bursak/Fletcher
I was thinking highly because of the Sturm/Martinez fights.... but opinion of him is dropping.
I haven't seen the tetteh fight, but hearing nothing good. Gave a pass for Khomitsky because he gave him trouble last time out.
N'Dam/Quillin is a rematch I wouldn't mind seeing....but doubt it happens
I don't think its him fighting down to his oppositions level its more he caught two guys at the right time and it flattered him really.
I see a guy with a very mediocre, average skillset. I don't think hes that good at all.
Hes not a bad fighter, solid enough but hes not world level and his output at times is almost non existent.
N'Dam is a bit chinny but I doubt Murray has the pop to bother him, he *might* drop him but N'Dam has great recuperative abilities and will get up and continue to outbox him.
I just can't see Murray giving him any real problems & its not as if hes a concussive puncher, again I think the Sergio fight really flattered him there too, he is most certainly not a puncher. Quillin for all his faults, is.
Hassan N'dam wins a clear decision. I think he outboxes Murray for most of the fight. He is a pretty good boxer, and we shouldn't forget that he won more rounds than Quillin when they fought. I don't think Murray has the power to hurt him. He's not as explosive as Quillin. N'dam would use his footwork, handspeed and would take advantage of Murray's low workrate to win rounds.
N'Dam comfortably outboxes and outworks him. Murray is overrated to the max based on Sergio falling to bits. It wasn't because Murray was good it was Sergio was that bad.
Why is it in everyones head Murray is under performing? That is his true level!
Martin Murray is Euro level, at best.
Is he really any better than a Barker, Saunders, Ryder or Macklin? I don't think so. I think he is the weakest of the lot.

I think Murray would edge it,he's a decent fighter,nothing spectacular but strong and solid all round I think he's better than Macklin and Barker ever were/are

Hard to tell, would be a good match up between two of the strongest middleweight contenders. Neither are particularly powerful so i'd imagine it would go the distance. I slightly favour N'Dam as he moves better, is maybe quicker, and would more than likely bring more volume and variety to the table. However their respective abilities seem fairly equal to me so it would likely be a close fight.
I actually think N'dam could beat Quillin in a rematch, although maybe not if it is in the States.
Would be a good fight, Murray has looked bad lately (I didn't see the fight today someone show me it if possible lol)
I would slightly favor N'Dam though, he seems more motivated to win
Probably a fight down the stretch. Takes a while for Murray to get into his groove and N'Dam might look to bank a few rounds to battle it out for the latter half.
Only thing I can find on his last fight is this.
