Comments Thread For: Ryota Murata Aims To Work Hard To Build Himself Up at 160

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Ryota Murata (13-1, 10 knockouts) is scheduled to make his first title defense next spring in Japan. But the opponent has not yet been decided and his chief aim is to stay in shape and improve his level of physical fitness at the Teiken Gym. Murata captured the WBA middleweight title in a rematch against Hassan N'Dam in late October in Tokyo.

Looked good against N'dam. But people are really hyping him up b/c he has a fake belt more than anything lol. Golovkin is the real WBA champ.

[Clegg]

A lot of good opponents at MW, but is his Arum deal going to stop him facing any of the HBO or Haymon guys? Because that rules out almost everyone.

Now if we can get everybody to fight each other that would be great, but with boxing we know promoters, tv channels and A side and b side will prevent most fights happening in their prime. Smdh

Murata needs a big name on his CV.
He should fight Jacobs or Andrade

It's a respectable one at least. More so than N'Dam.

murata does
not have the WBA mw title. golovkin does.

he holds the regular belt.

the wba "regular" belt means you are DEFINITELY NOT the world champ but can get in line to fight him, and WBA can mandate it.
