Ive told you guys Ive been really authentic about wanting to own a team one day and being a part of something really special and doing that.

And I want to be able to help people and give back and help change this community, continue to change this community for the better.Wilson was asked if hes willing to lobby city hall and Seattles mayor on behalf of the ownership group.Of course, Wilson said.

Its a financially prospering city, a place where we can change peoples lives and give new jobs and help people around the city. Its a great area, the SODO area. Its really, really special.

However, Abraham suffered an elbow injury and withdrew.After Abraham dropped out, Murray was matched Russias Dmitrii Chudinov, a former interim middleweight titleholder from Russia. However, Chudinov was ruled out this week because of a virus.So now its down to the 34-year-old Lawal (23-0, 13 KOs), a native of Nigeria fighting out of Germany who is coming off a sixth-round knockout of Istvan Szili on July 2 in a regional title bout.Murray, 34, a four-time world title challenger, is looking to rebound from a decision loss to countryman George Groves on June 25.Four weeks before I boxed George, I was flying in the gym, Murray said. If Id fought him then, the outcome would have been completely different. I peaked, and then I got ill. I took a couple of courses of antibiotics leading into the fight, so when I fought there was nothing in me.Id been training for the whole year basically, so that with the illness took a lot out of me. I didnt do anything in the first half of the fight, but I still nearly pulled it out of the bag at the end. I wasnt expecting to lose, so when I did, it took a lot out of me. Ive had a few good holidays since then and took some time out of the gym as I knew that this date was coming. The loss to George did take a lot out of me, though. When II lost to George, the goal of becoming world champion slipped away a bit, but the desire and hunger is still there and I know I am only one win away from getting another shot.ddddddddddddMurray believes a win Saturday will put him back on course for yet another title shot. He is 0-1 in super middleweight world title fights and 0-2-1 in middleweight title fights, having lost to Gennady Golovkin and Sergio Martinez and fighting to a draw with Felix Sturm.I need a win that puts me right back into the mix to fight for a word title, and hopefully this fight will be that win, Murray said. I would move down to middleweight if I could get the right fights, but I just cant seem to get them and there are fights coming at super middleweight. I am far from done as a fighter. Its just not worked out right for me.When we do nail it, we know that the wins against the big names will be there. Im not making any excuses or crying over spilled milk but it just didnt work out for me at middleweight, and I thought I beat Arthur at super middle, but thats just the way it is. Thats boxing.In the main event, Miami-based Cuban defector Ortiz (25-0, 22 KOs) will be in his first fight since signing with Hearn when he faces Philadelphias Scott (38-2-1, 13 KOs).
