Joe Murray looks set to turn his vest in following what he thinks was dispicable scoring in his European championship opener against Irishman Joyce:

Anyone see the fight - was it as a bad a decision as Murray is saying?..

His sig will be a welcome addition to the pros and a big loss to the 2012 amatuer hopes I would have thought.

Will be interesting to see how Joyce gets on against human threshing machine Lomachenko - now there is a poisoned chalice if ever there was one!

I read that the right man won, but the scoring should have been closer than it was. Can't see the problem, if it's agreed he lost the fight anyway.

Same guy moaned at the olympics, not that he lost the fight, but the margin.

poison chalice is right - I wouldnt fancy it!

Murray is bitchin all over the MEN today as well.

Sometimes some people just cant accept a before gracefully - you'd swear Murray was a scouse the amount of self pity he has!
