Martin Murray to some is a British boxing hopeful, but that hasn't hurt his confidence. The top fighter believes he will be the man to stop knockout king Gennady Golovkin. The pair enjoyed their pre-fight opening press conference, but Murray is sure he will enjoy not only the fight, but victory too. Brave words from a man stepping in to the ring with a fellow fighter that many deem a "monster in the ring". There had been talk of a Golovkin vs Carl Froch bout, despite the complications their difference in weight could bring. If Golovkin can topple one Brit, then maybe, just maybe he will get one of the most exciting fights of his life in 2015. Read More »

Nathan Cleverly, Anthony Joshua, Tony Bellew, George Groves and James DeGale will all step into the Liverpool Echo Arena's boxing ring this Saturday night, Nov. 22, and they're all hoping to have world title fights in 2015, and if they have success in their bouts they might just get their wishes. But the British crowd will be split between Nathan and Tony, as the pair will face one another for the second time. Cleverly, though, despite Bellew's home advantage, is confident of winning and then becoming world champion. Cleverly explained: "I've got a dream of becoming a two-weight champion. Win this fight and that dream is alive. Both careers are on the line. We've put ourselves on a pedestal. We've talked the talk. Who can deliver now? Maybe for the loser it's time to walk away, but losing is not an option for me. I strongly dislike him. I wouldn't say I hate the guy — I don't want to waste that emotion on him. The way he talks is very disrespectful. He's got a big mouth. He's a bully boy. He's a big guy, he's got a big mouth and he tries to intimidate people. My ambition is to go to his backyard and bully the bully boy." Read More »
