yes
murata was supposed to fight olympic medalist falcao, but arum wants him in vegas asap
expect murata to be lined up for a big name in his next 1-2 fights

Falcao is now fighting Andrade on HBO. Very tough fight for the both of them.

As for Murata, he SHOULD be next in line for GGG if he wins this (because Jacobs is fighting for IBF)

that's where all the big fight money is pointing to

Isn't Murata a giant by Japanese standards?

have you seen the WBA's cruiserweight division? they have a super champ (gassiev), a regular champ (shumenov), an interim champ (goularian) and a champ in recess (lebedev). It's absurd.

Confirmed
