Ryota Murata (14-1, 11KOs) should yell “bonzi” before the start of every fight as he is on a “seek and destroy” mission. He trugges in, hands held high, willing take one to give two. He has very little foot movement and always moves forward. He hits hard with both hands and looks to work the body. He has a bad habit of fighting with his mouth open, breathing through his mouth which could lead to a broken jaw. In May 2017, Murata lost a 12-round split decision against Hassan N’Dam for the vacant WBA middleweight title. The decision was very controversial and the WBA ordered an immediate rematch. Five months later, Murata stopped N’Dam in the seventh round.
Brant (23-1, 16 KOs) has more experience than the champion. He as quick hands and constantly moves to his left. He is willing to engage but has a strange habit of throwing his jab and leaving his left hand hanging out which makes him vulnerable to counterpunching and shots to the chin. Likes to get-in and get out by throwing only one or two punches at a time. Brants only loss was to Juergen Braehmer in a wide decision loss. His level of competition has been mediocre at best. Won a close (middle) decision to Louis Rose in 2015.
Prediction:
Murata is vulnerable to losing to an opponent that can control a fight with a jab and movement, piling up points round after round. Or a fighter that can simply stand toe to toe and out hit him. Murata reminds me of Alfredo Angulo as “Perro” would stand and bang a style that makes for a short career. I think that Brant’s game plan will be to hit and move and he will have early success. But as the fight progresses, Brant will stand and fight and meet his demise. Murata to win.
