Undefeated challenger Martin Murray is finishing his preparations for his upcoming fight against Sergio Martinez in Argentina, televised stateside on HBO. Before he hopped on a long plane ride, he was conducting a final workout in the gym. Right here, you’ll get a glimpse inside his training camp, as both he and Ricky Hatton give their thoughts on the training camp, the match, and more. Take a look.
Most people aren’t giving Murray much of a chance against the middleweight kingpin, Maravilla. He’ll also be up against a throng of fans in favor of countryman Martinez.
Nevertheless, he seems pretty cool and collected heading into the fight, and it seems as if he has put the work in to prepare himself. As for Hatton, he seems excited about the fight from the promoter’s perspective, and he talked about the scope of the event and the magnitude of it all, why they took the fight, and more. He compares this fight to his match against Kostya Tszyu, how he stepped up and not everyone believed in him, how he didn’t have to take the fight, but he went out there and got it done. He also says that if Murray wins, it would be one of the biggest wins by a British fighter in history.
