Jan 20, 2021, 05:00 PM
Martin Murray has retired after a long career that saw him challenge for an incredible five world titles. Here, he talks about the nights against huge names such as Gennady Golovkin, George Groves, Sergio Martinez, Arthur Abraham and Billy Joe Saunders.
He talks about his mentor, Oliver Harrison, working with his friend Jamie Moore and his future in the sport.
However, Murray's story is incredible away from the sport. boxing gave him a second shot at life. After several prison sentences, including a spell in a Cyprus jail, he made the decision to turn his life around and he became a fighting family man, leaving his troubled youth in the distant past.
