Unbeaten Irish prospect having fought on Dunne and McCluskey under cards he is 24-0 with 12 knock outs. He fights Gavin Rees a former WBA champion and prizefighter winner. Rees though is quite an ordinary ex champion losing to the limited Andriy Kotelnik on his first defense. Rees has this fight down as a stepping stone but he appears to have seriously underestimated Murray.

Told by people who have followed him for a long time that he is the real deal and has a huge chance, he is not going to turn this into a slug fest and will box clever and the 5/2 generally on offer for him should be snapped up.

Totally agree sqiggs, was gona post the same, cant believe the prices, id price it closer to 4/6, 5/4, already had bet so dont mind posting now. Listening to jimmy magee over the yrs, he must be going in large!

Massive price, the longer the fight goes on the better he will be

Correct if it doesn't turn into a brawl, he wins I think.

Decentish preview here. I know the lad who does them up and he knows his stuff particularly on Irish boxers.

Sorry to be party pooper but reckon Murray will struggle here.No bet for me so obviously hope hes wins but reckon Rees will be too big a step up for Murray and fancy Rees to win easily.

Rees looks knackered, too little too late though

Poor European title. Rees has run out of stamina but Murray doesn't have the skills to stop him.
