GGG is back!!!
Golovkin (42-1-1, 37 KOs) IBF and WBA vs Murata (16-3, 13 KOs).
The bottom line is this: GGG had a great fight, the only thing that can beat him is time, he really had a great run against the Japanese guy, who is a great guy, ( if the corner hadn’t thrown in the towel he would have gotten himself killed, but he wouldn’t have given up)
Having said that GGG is of another planet, he hurts much more and really his shots are lethal, he is a hall of fame, which we doubt will be Murata that we repeat is a great boxer, but a lower level than GGG. What we do not like is that he has cashed many blows, something that did not happen before or rather the number of blows cashed before was lower, much lower and the combinations that he brought were lethal (they are also now, but while before the effect was soporific, now is delayed).
There is talk of a third challenge with Canelo, but we hope that it will not happen…first Canelo will hardly go down in the middle weights, that is nutrimao doubts that he can do it, strong doubts but could … second GGG would meet what we call the clash of time, peak ascending for Canelo and definitely descending for GGG, without looking at this victory that would not even be mentioned if it were not for the almost forty years of age of the winner, that was the only crux of the matter: he will have an athletic hold he will get tired, he has denied or perhaps confirmed that he is a great fighter, but something has definitely changed and if he were to face an opponent which can be and is Canelo, well there is to make important considerations.
Anyway great match, reversals and an avalanche of energy really great night of boxing. Beginning of the third round, since the second the Japanese had brought home, was incredible: GGG has put a series of almost twenty seconds, that is, for twenty seconds he brought shots, then put the Japanese, and so was the match one of those matches that makes the audience go crazy, great honor to GGG that is really a champion, and his record is (in our opinion from that defeat with Canelo that was not at all). .is great respect for Murata who will have to do some reflection, but we are sure that he will come back considering who is his sponsor and he will be able to have a challenge for another title, after all he is a very good element and Japan loves its fighters.
