I have posted earlier I think that GGG is the clear favourite, however big credit has to be given to Murray who has been willing to take on the top lads rather than go down an easier IBO/WBY or whatever route.

Not so much about the elite fighters he's beaten, because that's not happened yet, but more about the way he's so easily dismissed the top guys he has met, the effortless manner he has about him. Its an aura he has about him I guess, not something you see too often...that plus his awesome amateur rep
- I guess crunch time will come and we'll know for sure, maybe Canelo to start with ...

Looking forward to tonight though, as MM looks very confident - so be interesting to see how long that lasts once the bell rings.

Av seen GGG his last 5 fights and he has been matched awesome all fighters on the way out with Murray he's got a hungry tough underestimated kid. GGG has not took a punch for 10 fights am goin for a MM win inside the distance @25/1 we bet 365

Presumably Murray has never been knocked down ? stunned ?

Dropped in the first Khomitsky fight and in my opinion slightly stunned in the last rounds of the Sturm and Martinez fights.

Any idea on the best way for those of us outside the UK to watch it?

I hope you're right, but I doubt it.

I hope you're wrong and I suspect you are.

Think he was knocked down by Khomitsky in their first fight

Martin does deserve a lot of respect; he has a very healthy attitude to the sport and I hope he gets well paid for his bravery. I think Murray is on a similar level as Macklin was, less explosive but stronger and sturdier. I can't see how Martin can force the issue and I imagine after a feeling out process Golovkin will unpick the Murray defence and land some very hard punches and the ref will jump in after a knockdown

Thanks couldn't see a knockdown listed, will check the vid

Just watched the weigh in, murray is obviously as cool as a cucumber, no nerves at all, he's had the perfect build up to a fight like this, with those two away fights against the rival champs.

GG must have been a bit bemused by all the singing at the weigh in, very un Monte Carlo like.

10.30pm ring walk apparently.

Anyone know when Smith Abraham walk is ?

is it just GGG vs. Murray on channel5 or are there plans to show Fury/Haskins aswell?

Eddie has tweeted ringwalks will be about 9.45pm

anyone got a good fishing spot for GGG undercard?

Hate saying this, but don't expect Murray to win as much as a round. He may be durable but this is one traffic all the way. Given how his style should play right into Golovkins hands I'll give Murray a lot of credit if he can get through six rounds, but I can't imagine he will survive much longer than that. As soon as he covers up Golovkin will start punishing him to the body and that'll be the end of it.

Fury won on points

Is this still on channel 5?

im off fishing tonight instead of watching tv, if you fancy dropping your line in then message me mate.

Good luck Murray

Really would love it if Murray pulls this off. If GGG wins this like he's dealt with others I'll be impressed, I think Murray beats all the other title holders in the division.

The ring card girls have the cold, vacant eyes of trafficked whores.
