Golovkin-Murray likely next Feb 1st at Monte Carlo

This would be a sort of unofficial unification fight then, as Murray is arguably the lineal middleweight champ. Great fight if it happens. GGG takes him down with body shots ... Murray's guard is very high, doesn't hit hard enough to discourage GGG and doesn't move well enough to get away.Last edited by Daddy T; 11-03-2013, 08:51 AM.Comment

I'll be honest, I don't understand how he's so much better than Macklin in some people's eyes. Murray's recent middleweight run is much the same as Macklin's. Both had close, tough fights they arguably won against Sturm, and both gave Sergio tough fights. Murray did better, but he also fought an injured, older Martinez.
How exactly is that so much better than Macklin? All these fighters- Murray, Macklin, Barker, Geale- they're all the same class of fighter and I think Golovkin is a class above that. Maybe I'm wrong, but I need to see it.Comment

Brilliant fight. Murray will be by far the toughest opponent to date, very good defense and very good technically.Comment

good step up, and if GGG performs better against a common opponent in Murray, I'll feel comfortable with leap-frogging him above Sergio.Comment
