Self explanatory why is Murata being viewed as a cherrypick when hes the exact opposite especially if its in Japan & rids haters of the built in judges excuse. I put forth that he would be by far the most entertaining fight for cinco de mayo & create a new rivalry between two proud peoples.
Why was he those things when ggg was gonna fight him, but isn’t now?
As I stated,Murata blasted out Brant in impressive fashion his last fight & looked far from a bum,thats a great win equal to anything Andrade/BJS has done.
For the record I don’t think Murata gets local judges for a Canelo fight..Oscar and Mauricio wouldn’t let that happen. Expect two Americans and one international judge at the very least.
Heres the thing EVERY Canelo fight would consist of the same judges as MSG the same arena Canelo supposedly"avoids because he wants fixed judges in vegas,he won't fight ggg in msg" is the usual line. Yet both ggg fights had the exact same judges as many ggg msg fights & they even let ggg keep judge who said he won 1st match. Vegas uses the most reputable criteria of any commission to select judges(which is why they are the same ones picked in NY also because their record is reputable at time of the fight) Murata would have everything at his advantage which maybe influences a bit early stoppages one can argue.(Vs Brant other judges might've let him continue,not that it'd matter. )

Not a bad fight. Should be held in Japan.
Sorta confused why GGG never took that fight. I guess the bums he fought were better alternatives.
Murata lost for the second time while the fight was being negotiated.

Is Murata even a top10 MW? a top 20?

He is not a bum. He is a decent fighter who comes to fight and can punch and take a punch. He is nothing outstanding though, with two losses to guys that were nothing special. He avenged both losses and he is a hard attacking game fighter with mostly KO wins and makes for good fights. He is rated slightly below Dervy, Andrade and Jermall and well below GGG and Canelo. It would be a reasonable fight for Canelo but he would be about a 12 to 1 underdog.
Murata is weird. On one hand Murata didn't live up to his hype, losing to NDam and Brant, two not so elite 160 guys. On the other hand he did live up to his hype when he knocked both those guys out in immediate rematches. Having seen Murata both lose and win those rematches may have given Team Canelo enough information to dissect him.
Ok I get you then,I would only prefer Canelo fights those other contenders but I know the game: Andrade has too much invested by Dazn/Hearn to let Canelo beat him(if),Smith likely the same applies because he sells,BJS would be a complete snoozfest of epic Lara proportions imho,but it can be made,but just recently ppl were screaming how hes a cherrypick when Canelo was linked to fighting him next,now that he isn't hes again ducking him.
Dazn doesn't want to cannabalize itself & that's surely why Muratas next(if) because they're a different business model from ppv
Going to Japan to fight Murata is fine. I just think for many they prefer someone better.
Out of all 4 guys who would be fighting the tougher opponents???
GGg - Sesmeta
Carlo - ???
Andrade - Keebler
Canelo - Murata
we can't answer until we know who Charlo is fighting next. If I am correct, Deverychenko was just mad eWBC mando so if Charlo fights him next it will be Charlo.
Also, asking this question equates everyone and leaves out the fact Canelo is choosing not to fight the guys ranked ahead of Murata.
He’s not a bum, but Canelo fans all called him a bum when there was a rumor of GGG fighting Murata for the WBA to force a Canelo rematch.
Funny how that works.
I would love to see these posts because I've seen canelo fans calling him a bum who also did before. But bottom line is hes imho the fight that would make canelo a global superstar,asians love boxers that defeated asian idols in places such as Japan,China etc especially & Muratas a superstar in Japan. Murata has a monster style like Inoue,he reminds me of a character from a show called ippo,hes a stylistic nightmare for many fighters because he kinda uses the peek-a-boo style created by Cus d Amato & uses relentless pressure as he did on Brant,he has the potential to make a absolute barnburner vs Canelo like if Kirkland was better & could withstand more would've been.

I was just trying to answer your question. Murata is ranked behind Charlo, Deverychenko, Andrade and GGG at MW so if Canelo choose him over one of the others some people will be upset and call that a cherrypick because the other guys are seen as tougher opponents.
I am not posting or suggesting it would be a bad fight or I agree with the opinion it is a cherrypick.

What makes Brant anything less than a far more impressive win than what the other candidates for the lottery have accomplished? Remember cinco de mayo is supposed to be entertaining fights,Murata is just as entertaining & skillful than Inoue despite no hype like Inoue. Explain to me why Andrade/BJS/ would make for an entertaining fight when nobody has ever said that about either one in their careers & instead say how horribly boring/annoying their style is to watch(Ppl cried about Jacobs v Nelo being boring ffs,& Jacobs way more entertaining than both). & Smith would go by body shot like Liam,easy work(as I've always said)
Muratas style matches better with Canelo & he has hella power & reach, it'll be a barnburner

He hasn't defeated anyone of substance other than N'dam and Brant that is most likely why he is seen as a cherrypick.
Also, he isn't ranked as high as GGG, Charlo or Andrade, other potential Canelo opponets at MW.
