If GGG would fight Murata in Japan I think it would be a good promotional fight for GGG.

Total mismatch.

It'd be interesting if they did it in Japan, but yeah I think GGG would take him apart.

If it would be in Japan definitely it would make some noise.

No. GGG vs winner of Jacobs-Derev or Saunders-Andrade is more interesting.

Murata is a less risky good money type of fight.

Total mismatch!?

Wow, you guys obviously either don't watch or are fanboys. Murata is a darkhorse of the division for sure. He completely neutralized N'Dam twice. He's definitely a dangerous fighter.

Dark horse? Was destroyed/schooled by Khytrov in amateurs.

Oh 7 year old amateur results sure do act as reflective guides of the sport today don't they.
And it was hardly a school. A fair win for Khytrov but not a schooling/destroying you thicket

Talk is this will take place in the Tokyo dome next Spring BTW, Mr Honda is very interested in putting the fight together despite GGG's recent set back

I like Murata. Imo he's better than Andrade. I have him as #6 MW. Jacobs fights Derevyanchenko, Saunders fights Andrade/gets suspended, Charlo is WBC Mandatory challenger, Murata is the best available opponent for GGG for a comeback fight. Either him or Sulecki would be the best choice for Zhenya, but Sulecki wants an easier fight after losing to Jacobs (probably Gabriel Rosado) so Murata is by far the best choice.

I think that Murata would be Golovkin's third best opponent in his career.

I think Golovkin still has way too much for Murata.

it would be an okay fight now imo, would be interesting if ggg went to japan

And Ruenroeng lost several times to Shiming in the amateurs. What does that have to do with the professional ranks? By the way, the Khytrov in the amateurs is not the same fighter as in the pros. He's regressed a lot.

when did khytrov destroy murata? that close 24-22 fight?

and lol murartas an olympic gold medalist and world champs runner up, knocking his amateur career is laughable, he accomplished more then the vast majority of even top pros

if theres good money for ggg to go to japan (is there?) it would be an okay fight, interesting to see golo in japan and muratas not bad, better then most golovkins opponents

to me it seems like not a bad fight for ggg to return on

Mismatch and waste of time. What has Murata done to remotely warrant a fight like this? Beat N'Dam? Lemieux beat a younger more prime version of N'Dam and GGG crushed him.

Guys with 0 wins over divisional top 10 fighters should not be fighting P4P elites.

It is a good comeback fight. And not a bad match up. GGG is aging daily and is coming off of 2 very hard fought bouts.
Perfect comeback opponent to gauge where he is at.

ya my thoughts too

Murata's team have been piling a war chest to lure Golovkin over for a while, Murata did the Japanese analyst role for Golovkin Vs Canelo II and looked like he'd been robbed when the decision was rendered, as if he'd literally seen the pay day go down the drain (it was a few days later before Honda stated they were still interested).

There's money there if GGG wants the fight, and there is real interest in the bout over there.

Ggg doesn't need a comeback-fight to gaige where he's at, he beat canelo twice, no matter ... ah forget it. Btw... we all age daily, i would even think you could argue hourly, minutely, by the second, constantly all the effing time. All ggg has to do is take the next damn fight that gives him the biggest payday, fornicating shame, he has to write off a few million from that cheque, just because they fucked him over twice.

You (plural) start aging in your thirties.

No matter who we think won those fights the official result is a draw and a loss.
That alone can take a mental toll on GGG.
Add in his age and a comeback gets a lil more difficult. This fight is perfect to tell if he's 100% or 80% of where he was

I do agree. It’s a good fight and opportunity for both.

If the money is there, why not, but still GGG won't have any problems brookin' up murata in under 8 rounds. As of the aging, i wasn't talking about children & i guess professional boxers/athlets would strongly disagree your statement that we (plural) start aging in our 30's, but okay that's what you (singular) may think.

You (singular) must tell me when the body begins to age as clearly I am not as learned as you (singular) and the whole professional boxers and athletes of this world you (singular) vouch for.

Can we all agree in hindsight how ridiculous this thread was?
