You're kidding right? How much is Murray paying you to say that? You really think Golovkin is ducking Martin Murray? He can and will clean out the entire MW division if and when given the opportunity. Murray can talk all he wants, just like Curtis Stevens, Geale and everyone else who thought Golovkin was beatable. Get in the ring and prove it. You are the most logical opponent for Golovkin at this time. Win your next fight and eat your words against GGG just like everyone else.
And to the user who pointed out all of Golovkin's supposed flaws, you must be the only one seeing them because even Murray, a professional boxer and MW contender said he doesn't see any flaws. Golovkin is not a runner, outside boxer or boxer puncher who runs around and waits for counters. This is not his style. He wants to excite the fans, he wants "big drama show". Not a borefest as per the likes of Mayweather, Rigondeaux, Lara and dare I say Ward. He is a power puncher. He does set his feet to throw a punch but because of his excellent range finding, he rarely leaves himself open for a decent counter. Did you even watch his last few fights? Any time he misses a big shot, he is rarely in position to be hit flush because of his range and positioning. On top of that, his opponents up to this point have been mostly afraid to try any big follow through power punches because they know what's coming back. Rubio made attempts to do so and was completely unsuccessful. Geale attempted to do so, got a decent shot in and was knocked out. His defense is not poor. His range is excellent and keeps his opponent on the defensive with clean, accurate punching from his range. Also, he is an expert at cutting off the ring, not allowing his opponent to find their range or use the ring to their advantage.
As far as the comment about Ward being his only competition, that might be true but unless you've been under a rock for the past year, Ward is not currently fighting anybody except his recently deceased ex-promoter! It's not like Golovkin, a fighter in his prime, at 30+ years old, is going to wait around for Ward to get his head out of his ass and get back in the ring.
Cotto, Canelo, Murray: Line up and get knocked down like bowling pins.Comment

Murray has a size advantage that evens this fight up a bit, I could see him going the distance. He fights like Clottey a bit, he covers up well then opens up with some combinations here and there while pressuring. GGG still wins but I could see it lasting at least past 6 rounds and he might make GGG fight off his back foot.Comment

Murray to me is still undefeated. He got a lousy Draw against Sturm in a fight he won and I had him beating Martinez by a very close margin.
I think he has very good stuff as a boxer and I think he is the UK's second best fighter.
Triple G hasn't faced anybody like him and it would be a tough fight for bothComment

I don't think Murray would survive the barrage with his style. He will get busted open with body shots.Comment
