Martin Murray agrees to fight Golovkin Feb 1st

[-Kev-]

Respect for Murray for manning up and not looking for 154 pounders and Rubio-level opponents, I see him as the real ring & WBC champion. Still, he is getting good boy'd earlier than Stevens. Just, he not understand serious box situation.

Well, Rosado was a 154 pounder coming up to 160.

Ishida is below Rubio level.

So...

HBO won't be televising this right? They dont do overseas fights...

Sure, he's a brave man for stepping into the ring, but the people want to see him fight legit opposition. He's ducked Quillin and GGG for 2 years, he's always "injured, needing tune-ups", now he's targeting a career 154 pounder in Cotto to blow up to 160 and if that doesn't happen, he wants Julio Cesar Chavez Jr's leftovers in Rubio... He won a robbery over Murray, who was supposed to be easy work. He called out Chavez Jr because he was a bum with no skills that robbed Sebastian Zbik and almost got KTFO by him. Ever since his best win (over Paul Williams!), he's been hurt badly by euro bum underdogs. "GGG was a no-name doe".. smh..

He ducked Quillin? Quillin was the one who said he wasn't ready for Martinez. People always spewing out bs.

So...

Rubio's best wins are Zertuche and Lemieux while Ishida's are Kirkland, Mamani, and Avendano. Ishida had also faced Pirog and Williams at 160 you can give an edge to Rubio but they're similar levels.

Feather fists is not in the same level as Rubio. No fucking way.

Do you seriously believe the betting odds for Ishida vs Rubio would be anywhere close to 50/50?

Both Cotto and Rubio are better opponents than Rosado and Ishida.

The point is, the poster is insulting Martinez for Cotto and Rubio when Golovkin is fighting similar sized fighters with lesser talent.

Pavlik, Chavez, Ouma, Baysangurov, Jantuah the guy may be a more familiar name but he's lost to every decent fighter he's faced. I'm sure the betting odds would be in Rubio's favor but the main reason is because of Ishida being unknown in North America.

dude, stop being a mic buffer.

I don't think it would be because he's unknown in North America. Having a record of 25-9 isn't exactly impressive. Rubio having 58 wins 50 by KO alone would have anyone from any where in the world favoring him over Ishida.

No matter what country the fight takes place in, Rubio would always be favored.

Like i said i would place him slightly above Ishida too but Rubio is not on another level.
