Size advantage was all the difference. Murray.

You remember in grade school when they had track and field day? And kids who didn't finish in the top 3 got a "Participation" ribbon? That's what Burrish should get for every one of his fights. I give the win to Murray for Burrish taking a cheap shot at him while he was going to take his visor off.

I don't know what video you were watching predglen, but Douglas does back away to take his visor off (like he always does) but Burish jumps him with one hand on the chinstrap.

Murray tried to drop the visor, but burish jumped him and wound up eating 2 big uppercuts. from there all he could do was hold on and wait for the refs to break it up. gotta give the win to murray, burish's only punches were thrown while murray was trying to remove his helmet.

Does anyone have the video of Murray in the penalty box yapping at Burish to let him take off his hat next time? Classic.

being a blackhawks fan, i'm embarassed by burishes display. hes a mediocre fighter at best, let alone he sucker punched a man with a shield. shame on you adam. go pull that sissy **** in the minors.

This is why im not sad to see Burish go he was suppose to be one of the tough guys on the team but this is how most of his fights went he would show up but lose most fights...Im more sad to see Ben Eager go but welcome John Scott.

What are the commentators on about?? Burish is tiny compared to Murray...total miss match in size, and they are saying how strong Murray is??!! This is a poor show from Murray, altho i do think he is a decent HW. Nice couple of early punches from Burish. Draw

As seen at the end of the video, this is total busch league from Burish. Murray fights, but wears a visor, and he makes a point before every fight to take his helmet off... as he's taking his helmet off (the honorable thing to do), Burish pounces (the dishonorable thing to do). As Murray recovers and takes control of the fight, Burish hugs and hangs on for dear life. Murray gets the nod and Burish should be ashamed of himself. to the 6.7% of you who voted for burish because "lol murray didn't take his visor off f@g" ... you are beyond hope. Have a nice life.

Murray gets sucker punched by Burrish while attempting to remove his lid. Murray continues to out muscle his opponent. Who says Swedes don't fight?
Posted by sj408 on Nov 17, 2008 at 8:13 PM agree disagree
easy win for Murray. could see why Burish didn't want to wait for Murray to get his lid off. If Murray got squared and ready it would've been a one hitter quitter.

How many times does Burish have to get his butt kicked? Let Eager fight for the Hawks.
Posted by jodan111 on Nov 17, 2008 at 3:29 AM agree disagree
All Murray. But this kid fights too much to use a visor! Or at least he did last year. Is he in a different role this year? Burish is a joke
Posted by BAAAAANNERMAAAN on Nov 18, 2008 at 10:26 AM agree disagree
i like the spirit Burish has but he cant hang with the big guys......so what is the point going after them? Leave it to Walker or someone.....
Posted by ecnerwalj on Nov 16, 2008 at 10:40 PM agree disagree
I have no issue with Murray's visor, not like he's hiding behind it. It's the little pansys running around pounding guys from behind and yipping at them, then run and hide when it's time to pay the piper. Murray doesnt hide from his job...
