Yeah Murray was brave but that was an awesome performance.

Speed, power, strength... Really impressive. I thought Murray landed some decent shots but GGG just took them! First time I've seen him live and Golovkin didn't disappoint.
 
They say GGG needs to go up to '68 for a challenge. I think he needs to go up to HW for a challenge.

Yep same here. Good effort from Murray but Golovkinlooks a very good all-rounder. Tough chin, variety of punches, knockout power and a calmness too.
 
World level Boxing is back on regular TV tonight for the first time in years. Carl Frampton on ITV. Good to see.
 
For those interested, below is some scheduled listings for tonight's fights:

Walsh vs Murray - 8pm
Eubank Jnr vs Chudinov - 9pm
Fury vs Hammer - 10pm
Frampton vs Avalos - 11pm
 
:lol: Chudinov throwing Eubank Jr across the ring Ivan Drago style. Eubank absolutely battering him though.
 
How did Chudinov stay up there? What a beast. The referee needs to stop this.
 
Great fight from Eubank Jr, very impressive. Ref waited far too long to stop it though.
 
Eubank fight is one of the best I've seen in a long while, proper action. That Russian is hard as nails though, wouldn't be surprised if he had Smirnoff in his corner water bottles. Eubank is quality.,
 
Eubank Jr looks like he's going to go far. What a performance.
 
The Eubank fight was excellent. Enjoyed it.
 
The bottom of Tyson's shorts are almost as high as the bottom of Hammer's belt line.
 
Why does Fury have Venezuela on the back of his shorts?
 
This is a bit of a a boring fight. Hammer is hanging in there but is offering nothing. Now that Fury has the knockdown, I get the impression he's happy to safely play this one out.
 
Wish Fury had more pop.

Hammer's corner's stopped it. Fury needs a challenge. If he can't get Wlad or Wilder next, hopefully he gets a top 10 HW.
 
What the Hell!

Hammer's corner throws in the towel. Didn't see that coming.
 
It´s shame Fury will get paid millions to be fecked up by Wlad in two rounds. He´s a straight up bum. Wilder would have killed Hammer in two rounds max.

That´s never going to happen. They won´t jeopardize his big payday, although I´m not even sure what constitutes a top 10 heavyweight these days.

First of all, Fury isn't a bum. Wlad might finish him in 2 rounds, but Fury ain't no bum.

And I know it's not going to happen. But I want to see him fight someone decent. Think there's a possibility he'll get Wlad next tbh. Haymon's not going to feed Wilder to Wlad yet, wants to make some money out of him first. So Fury could get Wlad after the Jennings fight fight.
 
I'd prefer to see Fury fight Wilder. Wilder would force Fury to fight, whereas I could see a Klichko-Fury fight being a 12 round bore-fest.

Fury will do his little cute southpaw backhand slap dance on the ropes. Wlad will throw a double jab and bring the right hammer down. Or he´ll just hook off the jab. Fury has no chin. There is no way that fight goes 12 rounds.
 
Now that is a real proper world class talent and champion: Carl Frampton.
 
Great performance from Frampton. Took the biggest shots of his career en route too. Perfect stoppage from a referee in boxing for once as well. Avalos was given opportunity to backup his bravado fire with fire action but the moment it was disproved the ref stepped in.

Fury and Eubank Jr all brought it home too.

Not a chance in hell Scott Quigg survives a fight with Frampton, let alone wins a contest. Eddie Hearn should run from that fight as far as possible.
 
Just watched the fight on itv, not bad, got confused who was fighting for a minute at the end, Frampton or McGuigan, he seems to hog more limelight that Eubanks dad.
