John Murray: fighting talk

Ps I think Gallagher is getting too big for his boots. He talks like Crolla is some superstar when in reality he's lost to domestic level opposition and scraped wins over guys that are domestic level fighters and I include the current version of Rees in that

Based on his last fight I think Crolla and Matthews would both beat Murray

I hope Murray gets back to his best, lets be honest 70% of his previous best is good enough to beat Crolla, who is massively over hyped and shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath as World title.
Get him in with Mitchell if he doesn't fancy Murray

Cardle is on the same card as Murray next week right? Be interesting as that might be a fight in the future, I it me or are they taking there time with Cardle?

to use a phrase beloved of a poster in CS, how much would it affect things that Murray has had his 'chin cracked'
his whole game was predicated on being willing to take one, or two or three, to ultimately land a couple.
bot such an easy game to play once you've found yourself staring up at the lights.

I would like Cardle to fight Murray actually.
However Eddie needs the Crolla v Murray fight to generate enough local interest in the show to make it worthwhile. Even then I would only expect it to get half full.

Murray took a lot against Rios after getting stopped by Mitchell. I don't think he changed his style for that fight.

Not sure how much Murray has left in the tank these days. That said Crolla is not getting any better, he has peaked. Gallagher's head is getting very big these days. Always going on about the awards he does or doesn't get on twitter

Crolla seems to be a nice lad, but Gallagher needs putting in his place.

It's usually a body shot that undoes those relentless tough types.
