    Comments Thread For: Murray: Abraham Slowed Down, Not as Good as Golovkin

    MARTIN MURRAY insists he has no fear of a dodgy decision in his fourth world title attempt on Saturday.

    In the first of his three failed bids, he was the victim of a controversial points draw against local hero Felix Sturm in Mannheim in 2011.

    Murray, 33, stepped up a division after lasting 11 rounds with world middleweight No.1 Gennady Golovkin earlier this year and takes on German Arthur Abraham for the WBO supermiddleweight crown.

      I see Murray rolling over Abraham. Arthur looks so sloppy these days and it takes little effort to gas him. Murray showed he's got a hell of good chin and he might even be stronger than Abraham and be able to push him back.

          Abraham is still heavy handed, not as heavy as he was as a middle but it sounds a little like Murray might be underestimating him.

              Murray's a very good fighter. Should've gotten the decision over Martinez and be the lineal champ at 160.

                  How does a fighter get dominated in a title fight and then proceed to beat three opponents that aren't even ranked within the top 100 and then somehow get another title fight?

                      He went 12rounds with Paul Smith loooool remember that.

                                      Yes, and I think that was a case of Abraham underestimating Smith.
