Thread: Martin Murray losing his shot to Chavez jnr...

What did he actually do to not be allowed to fight him? Thought that would have been a great fight personally. Who are they both going to fight now??

It's something to do with murray not being allowed a visa because ov his criminal record.must ov been in trouble before he got into boxing. Any1 what he's done?

Martin Murray's criminal record comes back to haunt him | BoxRecNews

A bit more info here.

What a shame. Pointless to punish someone again for something in his past, when he has clearly turned his life around and is now a great example of how boxing can positively change people. It is not like he killed someone or is going to pose any kind of threat to the well being of American Citizens. Hopefully there is some kind of appeal process that will allow common sense to prevail.

It is the law that if you have a criminal record you are not allowed into the USA.
That goes for anyone applying for a visa.
It does not matter what the offence was , those are the rules.

Strange over here we let Tyson in a convicted criminal, so it's ok to export but not to import.
