I'll never forget the Graham Earl fight, absolutely awsome. I'm not convinced Murray could handle the big punches in such a quantity that katsidis throws them.
Amen Grannyman... That fight was completely crazy with knockdowns all over the place, Mickey Vann throwing the towel out of the ring from Earl's corner (I think) it was one of the most exciting fights I have ever seen, and there were times you watched it you thought Earl was going get stopped or vice versa and then they would suddenly rally.
Graham did really well but that bout did him in; he were never the same after.

There has got to be a time when the hard fights catch up with Katsidis - I think it was evident last weekend.
no way he is still up there with the best in the world he was in with a tough southpaw,had a legit knockdown ruled out and was still in there at the end of the 12 rounds. Now put murray in there with gurrero and see how he would fair i predict a mid fight stoppage of murray,with katsidis i predict a 6th round stoppage of murray im not hating murray i like him he is a gent outside the ring and i love his style inside the ring but these two fighters ive mentioned are well above murrays level at present

Hatton was in lots of wars like Murray before he made the step up and look what he went on to achieve.
Also, I dont believe Katsidis is world level, the 3 fights he has lost have been steps up in class and on each occasion he has been outclassed. In all 3 fights he has proved he has the punchers chance, but he has never once looked like competing.
totally disagree with you on this comment,katsidis is world level just not world champion level

I think you are right, Murray has found his level. If he could stay with Katsidis, which I doubt, he could maybe get a points decision. Guerrero and JMM no chance.
