Brandon Rios-John Murray... Borderline Mismatch? Fact.

Can anyone possibly see John "no defense" Murray lasting more than six rounds?

Murray is away from home, isn't a puncher, is coming off a KO loss and Rios, who is the best fighter he's faced, has 10 stoppages on the bounce. Murray will plod forward, as usual, with no head movement and get battered.

Rios must be a good bet here.

Rios rounds - 1-6 (13/8 - £100 returns £262)
Rios rounds - 1-4 (10/3 - £100 returns £433)
Rios rounds - 1-3 (11/2 - £100 returns £650)

Take your pick, it can't possibly go wrong. Fact (see you in the poorhouse).

You're 100% correct. Those are good odds on a stoppage between rounds 1-4.

He's going to be a walking punchbag for rios, won't go past 4. Odds looking good on rounds 1-4.

I really dont like matches for so called world titles , when the challenger qualifies by being Koed in his last fight which wasnt at world level, its just madness.
Murray will go by the 5th

Murray will give a good account of himself, hope he wins this.

He will try his best as he always does but i think he will be punished badly.

I hope he pulls the upset as no one is giving him a chance, he is a tough solid fighter, rios will suit him. :)

I think so too.

Murray does nothing better than Rios in the ring, he's getting stopped early.

I was thinking about this fight last night. Murray was well handled by Mitchell who looked pretty good but was not a world level fight.

I'd be interested to know how people would see this fight going had Muray been victorious last time out and and was still unbeaten. From the sounds of it Murray has no chance.

There has been minimal hype and build up for this scrap so not too many distractions for john Murray, has being left alone to train enabled him to get in fantastic condition mentally and physically and pull off the upset. Doesn't look like it.

Murray said he looked past mitchell which is obvious, all he said in interviews before that fight was how he was ready to take on Rios and the rest.

reckon it's going to be a mini war.

I am really am looking forward to this fight, although Murray lost to Mitchell theres no doubt he is still a top rated 135 fighter IMO. Hope he is highly motivated because Rios is a bull, I think it will be an entertaining fight whilst it lasts but I can see Rios being too strong for Murray. Will be a good win for Rios though if Murray gives a good account of himself.

Nothing borderline about it!

This will be painful

Murray fight's with his face, good luck to him he
need's it? I am afraid he is going to take a beating?:beatup:

Murray will lose , but in no way can it be called a mismatch :o

One fighter has 10 straight KO's, the other just suffered a KO loss at domestic level

I also think Rios slaughters him
