    How far can Murata go?

    I havent followed any of the boxing this weekend so I dont know how good murata actually looked BUT he beat Ndam by stoppage, felt he won the first fight too.

    Now he has a world strap but lets be honest ,he aint a champion. However, he is now a top contender so how does he do in the division?

    He's 31 so he has to hurry, but I don't see a problem with fights being made with the other top fighters in the division.

      I haven't watched the rematch, but I wasn't impressed with his activity in the first fight. For all the robbery talk with the first fight I think the fight got judged like it did cuz while Murata was highly effective when he did punch the problem is he didn't punch enough to my (& it would seem the judges) liking.

      I think his potential is going to be limited cuz the top guys got better skills + punch as hard or harder & I think some guys you could suggest are under him will be able to outwork & upset him too I tend to feel. If he gets in with a GGG, Canelo, Charlo or Jacobs I don't think Murata will have a good night.

        A great fight for him in April/May would be the winner of BJS vs Lemi fight in December and then the winner of that would fight the winner of Canelo-GGG in September.

        Would be great if we could get the BJS/Lemi winner vs Murata on the undercard of Canelo-GGG in May as would give both guys great exposure and more likely they would face Canelo-GGG winner in September.

          I think murata v charlo makes a lot of sense while ggg/canelo/lem/bjs sort things out.

          Winner takes on any of the others.

            that would be good, would charlo take on a little known jap with 12 fights though? doubt it.

            to answer your question, i think he can go pretty far, his handlers need to steer him well away from 'the technician' (not spelling that name) though, he would get smashed

            I like Murata to beat lemule though after he takes ******* saunders belt. So maybe they can get that belt and cash out with a unification fight in japan?

              Charlo just fought a disabled guy with no notable wins. Murata just beat Ndam. Buut Charlo is gonna milk that mando spot as much as possible.

              Who is the technician?

                Well yea exactly, team charlo are hoping for the canelo payday, there is no reason to fight murata and theres no money in it.

                technician is sergey devenchenko (sp)

                  murata, charlo, jacobs, and dervychenko need to fight each other in some way. this is boxing and we will be lucky if we get 1 of those
