Thoughts on this fight?
Link?
Catchweight?
I would love to see Murray win but after the Sergio debacle I think Chavez is ready to change his attitude
About training and get serious. I will be looking forward to it.
Is Murray jumping up to lt hvy ???
Chavez has challenged Murray to come to Mexico City for a career high payday. Up to Murray if he wants the fight. He'll be a fool to pass it up. He won't win. But no other fight would pay him more
Isn't Chavez Jr. fighting Brian Vera first on HBO?
Murray is a better fight than Vera, especially if Junior makes him go to 165. Vera is not even a legit middleweight. This is a good fight for Murray because due to his criminal record he can't fight in the U.S.
I'm still very curious how long Junior remains at 160. I wonder if he ever makes 160 again.
What kinda dirt has Murray done.. Was he a gangster?Quote:

I think you have to have a criminal record to travel to Mexico so Murray will be fine.Quote:

Chavez--and maybe Suliaman--could be giving the USA the finger by inviting Murray to fight in Mexico. Believe it or not there are a lot of people out there that just don't care for the USA. Unbelievable, right? LOL
Excellent match-up. On form Murray should start favourite. Yeah he'll probably get robbed in Mexico but it's a good fight, so who cares. Robberies happen every week in boxing.

That's from when he was originally meant to have fought Chavez JR
It will be interesting to see what Junior has left and what weight he will campaign at. The fact he is trying to take on very good contenders means he is serious about his boxing.
I'm pretty sure he hasn't been living a monastic lifestyle while he's been suspended. They already moved his return date back once so he may struggle to make 165.Quote:

He's already apparently agreed to get robbed in Mexico. If on top of that he caves to a higher catchweight, then he's either an idiot or he's more desperate than I thought.Quote:

He's one of hattons lads, so I think he'll have to get on any1s promotion who have a tv deal even on a catch-weight or just get completely forgotten about as Barker gets hyped to fuck on sky
