Sturm did Murray a favor by granting him a title shot and and the bout's outcome was not questionable. Murray had a shot but fell short.

Sturm doesn't owe Murray anything and Zbik is an experienced and credible challenger; there is nothing wrong with this fight or the lack of a rematch between Sturm and Murray.

This. Murray was slightly fortunate to get a draw imo and the stick Sturm has been getting for not granting an immediate rematch is harsh.

In truth, I think that Martin and the team always knew the rematch wasn't going to happen.
I think Martin will be out again before the end of April, and it will be interesting to see the opponent his teams gets him.
Really warmed to Martin and looking forward to the next fight.
As for Sturm I don't think you can criticise the guy.
Under no obligation to give Martin another chance and Zbik is a decent match up.
