Ryota Murata???? This is just a joke right?

[Metho_4u]

you make a thread ridiculing ggg for not facing enough champions in his career...then you criticize talks of him facing a champion. not that I care to see that fight either, but get your **** straight.

Don't you think there's a difference between facing a champion that's legit, and a bum paper champion that's beaten no one?

Is ignorance a trend nowadays? Apparently geography is not your strongest point and you think the world is only made up of U.K and U.S. Charlo is a little fish compared to Murata's credentials, achievement and fanbase.

Great post and totally right. These ignorant american people where boxing as a sport is total niche.. 500k people watched Charlo's last fight. Barely 800k watched Jacobs.

Murata is watched by 15-30 Million in Japan.

Facts: peaked at 30M viewers.
Was the 3rd most watched program on 2 that day.
Was the most watched all year on Fuji TV.

30 Million??????

WTF

[_Rexy_]

When did Murata become a bad fight? I'm hoping he does fight Murata if he can't get Saunders next.

Plus, I'm hoping more big talent Japanese boxers start getting televised up here. Looking forward to Inoue vs McDonnell which I'll have to stream illegally from Japan lol

lil g saw Charlo as his mandatory and jump on a plane to Japan LOL!

Murata would beat Charlo.

30 Million??????

WTF

Yup, he shattered previous rating records on "FujiTV", highest ratings in over 16 years



Most of the news about it is obviously in japanese.

He also had over 15M viewers vs Blandamura.

Ryota Murata v Emanuele Blandamura averaged 15 MILLION viewers in Japan last weekend and peaked at 17 MILLION! Winning Olympic Gold has turned Murata in to a superstar! 🇯🇵

ask the wba...just another example of why most of these belts don't mean a thing. but guess what...murata is a CHAMPION...so add him to your list if ggg fights him.

lol..........

[Larry the boss]

What was Danny Jacobs when GGG faced him? He was in the same position Murata is now. They held the same secondary WBA Belt.

Jacobs was not a champ nor was GGG when Sturm was the champ

Not according to *****s like yourself and Larry. That only applies to other fighters.
