    Can't blame him lol still can't believe people thought he could lose to the C level fighter. This guy beat Eubank. He can go with the best out there when motivated.

      Groves did it and won a title at his fourth try.

      If Murray actually loses again, does he hold the record for unsuccessful title challenges?

        Can't blame him really.

        If he feels he can get Canelo or GGG in September, then he isn't going to jump into a top quality fight next. Murray is a solid opponent at 160, albeit a bit faded now. Given the circumstances, it's a decent enough defence to tick over and see if he can land a big one in September.

        The only guy i've seen dominate Murray is GGG. He's been competitive with everyone else and robbed a few times. He isn't a soft touch at 160.

              Big fight

              BJS looking to do what Parker just did with the WBO belt but I don't think Canelo gives to ****s about it . GGG is the only one that cares to unify so he better hope GGG wins . I give BJS a good shot of beating both guys which I know Canelo will run from . Big dude !!

                What a terrible opponent. Murray looked like **** against groves and hasn't really done anything In years. Think he had struggles making 160 too, so not only was he never that great in the first place, he's also past his prime and likely to be weight drained. Doesn't look like any of these other middleweight contenders actually want to fight each other.

                  Murray is always finding himself in big fights, dude refuses to go away. With that being said, I hope he beats this asswipe, but it will depend on which BJS shows up. The one that fought Lemieux beats Murray handily, the one that fought Akavov loses a decision to Murray

                    This version of Murray, that barely beat Gabe Rosado, should get thoroughly outboxed by Saunders. He got his ass kicked by Golovkin, played with weight where he got his ass kicked by Groves, and is now over 35 and has talked about retiring. Not a horrid fight, but unless Murray puts together the last performance of his career, he's gonna lose in a snoozefest.

                      Saunders running through all of Golovkin's 2015 leftovers.... After Canelo-GGG II we should be back in business I hope.
