  • Martin Murray the people's champ

    Let's at least give him the title: The people's champ.

    He deserved to win at least one major fight. The only clear loss was against Golovkin.

    The people's champ.

    Agreed, I'd say he only has two losses on the record and that's G and AA by a narrow points decision.

    MM lost himself that fight with AA, needed to show that workrate that he did against Sturm to beat someone like AA.

      More like "The Nearly Man" or "The Glorious Failure"

      He beat Martinez but I had him losing to both Sturm and Abraham.

        The word title and Murray should not be used together in a sentence.

        You could call him TBM- The British Matthysse.

          well he beat Martinez in my eyes but he clearly lost to Abraham. Don't get me wrong, the fight was close but Murray lost it. And he culd have won it if he hadn't given Abraham so much respect. He looked good when he was coming forward getting AA on the back foot. He just didn't do it often enough.

              Nah.

              He did get robbed against crippled Sergio, but he lost to both Sturm and AA.

              Can only blame himself for the AA loss, he backed off constantly, allowed a one dimensional fighter do the one thing he can do and held after multiple warnings.

                No way did he lose to Sturm, literally outworked Sturm nearly the whole fight landing more and overall pressing the action If that's a loss I guess Canelo lost at the weekend too.

                  He fought the same super duper slow pace that Abraham sets, literally played into his hands he showed glimpses that he could beat him but not enough following up from then on.

                  Combo up on the punches press AA on the backfoot and he'd have likely won this fight but he only did it here and there, I thought Murray might have been onto KOing him when he landed that right hand.

                    Real top level fighters toyed with Abraham years ago and gave the blueprint to beating him.

                    Murray wasn't good enough to implement it. Him and Abraham are as bang average as each other.
