    That's true, he doesn't have many other scalps to go after. I hope Martinez can return to form, but I suspect he's not going to be the fighter he was a few years ago. If he recovers well and still wants Golovkin that fight would need to get made and fast, would be awesome.

    For me Stevens would be a lot more live in a match with the winner of Barker-DeGale, although I doubt that fight makes sense for anyone involved. And so you should receive backlash, for wanting to see Mora fight anyone

    That was impressive. Is it December yet? Starving for points I took him as a long shot upset. Thought Stevens might fold under pressure. Just wanted to get my feet wet my first Saddo challenge and instead I'm drowning.

    Interesting read here.

    That's a bit crazy that they offered Murray more money than he got for Martinez and he turned down the fight.

    I thought Murray couldn't get a US visa though

    The same Curtis Stevens that was KOd by a journeyman?

    Against Golovkin? ..... Hardly.

    I don't like Golovkin, and I sort of like Stevens but it seems unlikely that Stevens static style would trouble GGG.
    You say tomato,
    ‘n I say …… it correctly.

    I think there was mention of the fight in the UK. If you saw Murray's reaction to GGG's KO of Murray, this is not super surprising.

    Murray has no chance.. Id rather see Stevens get a shot because he brings a puncher's chance.

    GGG's has fought a bunch of JMWs and guys who couldnt check his chin ..

    Definitely want to see him against a young puncher whose not afraid of him.

    GGG stops Curtis early. I have no problem with the fight happening but would much prefer GGG to be fighting bigger names. Hopefully he gets the winner of Barker/Geale but I reckon they are more likely to take on one of the other MWs then him

    I would argue Murray is a tougher challenge than Stevens.

    In boxing years, at 28, Stevens isn't young. Do you remember the "Chin Checkers" group he was in with Jaidon Coddington back in the early 2000's? (Maybe I have him mixed up, but I think that was him).

    Also, as devastating as the KO was, Saul Roman was a career junior middleweight, not a middleweight. Moreover, Brinkley dominated Stevens. That doesn't bode well for Stevens in this match-up.

    If you ask me, I like the idea of Stevens against Quillin for Stevens first, but for GGG, other than the Geale/Barker winner, Stevens is as good as anyone.

    Yes I did see that and I am not surprised either it not happening. But this is only GGGs side of the story, so it would be interesting to hear what Murray has to say.
