    I think GGG took his power from him by hurting him early.

    GGG is an amazing fighter and can take the wind out of anyone's sails at his weight, but I'm sure Murray made every one proud who saw his performance, even though some of us might have doubted his sanity a bit.

    GGG has a quirky way of punching. All the power seems to come at the last minute and at a strange angle. He must be incredibly fit to keep on throwing those bombs for the full 11 rounds.

    Murray's face was in shock when he felt the power.

    I was thinking along the same lines, after the first round GGG fights at the same pace the entire fight. He doesn't get faster he makes the other fighter slow down, he is relentless and quirky (like you said) that overhand left of his looks like it is coming straight down at times.
    I know Murray doesn't have a lot of KOs, but GGG was taking some pretty clean shots and walking right through them. The guy is going to he around for a while!

    I hope he does stay around but he is over 30 and like Chavez this type of style is hard to maintain.

    Murray has something left in the tank. He took a beating but it wasn't a career-ending beating, as long as has confidence wasn't hurt. I agree with the posters that say he's probably the second best middleweight out there. He needs to a get an American attorney to help him with traveling the US. If he can't come to the US, there are a couple of big UK fights, especially with Saunders and Macklin if Macklin can get his act together a string together a couple of wins. Not to mention, if Murray's a big, strong middleweight, I bet he can move up to 168 and do well there. How about Groves vs. Murray in the UK if Groves gets a belt? Big fight?
