Comments Thread For: Martin Murray's Monte Carlo Bout To Land on BoxNation

We he has to face Rubio or face being stripped, so that'll happen in Argentina. He'll still hope for a big fight though while holding onto his belt. Won't be forced inot that zbik position since he can go to Argentina

What i'm saying is if he plans on retiring why waste his time with a low paying title defense when he could drop the belt and face Golovkin for good money defending the RING belt and not have to lose some of his purse paying sanctioning fees to the WBC.

I like Murray, good solid pro and so unlucky to have been stiffed against Sturm and Martinez. Hopefully he can build a bit of momentum here, he'll provide a stern test for any MW, GGG included.

He still makes bank though in Argentina. With the recent events of GBP, it'd be in his best interests to hold onto the belt. Golovkin fight could be PPV next year or Canelo could be available on HBO. He's not attached to Haymon and I don't think he has a contract with Sho

This goes 12 with Murray in a close-ish decision. He'll most likely go after Sturm or Fletcher/Jacobs winner

Murray is likely my favourite Brit along with Frampton,Burns and Brook,I can't and won't buy into any of the other hype jobs,plying their trade there.

Can't see Murray going after Sturm,too high risk low reward now.Soliman v Murray I should imagine will b at the forefront of Murray's plans should he come through this Bursak test,which lets be fair he should.

If Sergio wins he has one more fight on his HBO contract and you know they won't approve Rubio. If the improbable does happen and he fights Golovkin perhaps he does it without the WBC belt with Murray and Rubio fighting for the vacant strap.

I'd like to hope that they'd allow a unification,Sergio don't need the WBC strap if they try force his hand,I can't imagine they would should the GGG fit materialise though,the fees to be earnt from the biggest fight possible at MW should keep them happy.

Hell they could even let Rubio fight for the WBC title against Bursak/Murray winner and allow a GGG Sergio fight to be for the 'diamond' doesn't Sergio already own the WBC Diamond ? Or isn't he already recognised as the WBC diamond belt holder ??

GGG wont have to defend the WBA title for 18 months after Fletcher or Jacobs pick up the regular,should the WBA follow their own rules,which they've obviously made up as they've gone along pushing Fletcher aside,not that I wanted to see Fletcher GGG over the Geale fight haha.
