    Anyone excited for BJS vs Murray?

    BJS has always seemed like a level headed champ to me who does not get into rash fights and instead takes it one step at a time, improving himself in the meantime. He realizes his own limitations and challenges himself up to the level he thinks he can compete with which is very smart imho, even though I want to see a unified MW champ as a GGG fan.

    Murray on the other hand can always give a competitive fight and is a great opposition. I have a massive amount of respect for fighters who can take the L and still keep on fighting at the top level.

    Although BJS fights are often boring, I think this has the potential to be a great fight, no matter who wins. I know I'll be cheering for both to have a great fight. Thoughts?

    BJS-Murray should give us good indication where BJS is at.

    Also looking forward, big time, to TC and Horn.

    Horn is like a better version of Shawn "MMA" Porter

        It seems like BJS vs Murray will just play out with Billy boxing circles around him and Murray being too tough to go down or quit. Billy will be up like 8 rounds to 0 going into the 9th round and there won't be an ounce of competitiveness to it at that point.

        I am excited to see BJ's boxing skills on display again, though!

          That would probably be a really good scrap! It may even look a bit like Gatti-Ward with a bunch more wrastlin' involved!

                Porter is horrible. He got outclassed by Kell Brook and then edged Broner and wrestled Paulie and Granados. Nothing impressive.

                As I've been saying for a LONG time. Just because the "top guys" of a division are C+ in a division with all D, C-, and C fighters doesn't mean you elevate the "top guys" to B or A status. C and C+ fighters are C and C+.

                Porter, Thurman, and Danny are C and C+. Terrence Crawford is the best WW in the world and hasn't fought a single fight at 147 yet.

                Verdict isn't out yet on Spence or Horn since they haven't fought enough competition to grade them

                  Think Saunders could win by late KO, it's Murray's last ever fight pretty much, he'll want to come forward a bit once he's down on the cards. But having said that, it'll probably be a stinker. Saunders with $$$ in his eyes, and Martin thinking about his pride or whatever

                    Each to their own but I don't agree with any of that. Ridiculous post in fact from start to finish.
