I think Murray is quite tough.
I just hope that doesn't lead to bad things for him.

[Mr.Daddy]

Sure, but Berman wouldn't even consider the very real possibility of GGG kayoing Murray, and that tells me that Berman is not only lying to us but to himself as well. I like Murray, but it will amaze and astound me if GGG does not stop Murray. Clean K.O.? Referee stop contest? Murray's corner throws in the towel? Promoter steps inside the ring ending the bout? One of these will be how the fight ends, and it will be Murray and not GGG who leaves the ring defeated.

Can't wait to see this guy vs an A side, when they put usada or had on his a.s..s. I just want to see if his power disappears like Matthyse when he faced Garcia. Just to be fair I do think Maidaina and Wilder have the most natural power in boxing, if that makes any sense.

Kinda wish this Murray would show up. But he wouldn't last 3 rounds fighting like this.

I've seen him noticeably hurt by Sturm, Martinez and Renda.

That doesn't bode well for him.

You could lose your consciousness.

it doesn't because golovkin clearly has the biggest punch p4p. he blew geale out of the park. his power has already been proven. murray will be another feather in his cap

[MDPopescu]

Yes, yes... It will be a tough fight, yes...
... And where are they fighting? In the Salle des Etoiles of Monte Carlo Casino?...
... Do you people even know who is owning Monte Carlo and the French Riviera?... lately?

I think Murray quits after 3-4 rounds if he's still standing. There's just nothing in his arsenal to keep him competitive with Golovkin. He's probably most similar to Adama, who's a big strong MW with a tight guard. But I think Adama hits harder and is more durable than Murray.

I'm still expecting we'll have Golovkin/Hopkins at 170lbs on May 16th.
