Andy Murray may be a die-hard boxing fan, but the Scot is not ready to adapt any of the drills utilized in the noble art into his tennis training regime. “I’ve watched a lot of boxing training,” Murray said after beating Spanish battler David Ferrer in a dramatic three-set final at the Miami Masters.

“I’ve never implemented any of it into my training, because you have to be very careful with the wrists and stuff.”

Murray called his struggle with fighting Ferrer “a brutal, brutal match.”

“Both of us were kind of on our last legs. Good it wasn’t a best of five set match, because I don’t know how the last few sets would have ended up. It was one of the toughest matches, I’ve had to play in a Masters Series, for sure.”

The win marked the ninth at that elite level for Murray, who frequently trains with Ferrer and who has a special place in his heart for Spaniard after polishing his tennis in Barcelona.

“I don’t think he gets the respect that he deserves within the game. He’s been in the top 5 for at least three years. He’s on course to possibly do that again. It’s a very difficult thing to do, especially with his age (31 this week).

“He’s improved his game every single year. That takes a great attitude. He’s always getting better. Providing his body holds up, he’ll be around the top of the game for as long as he wants or he can, because he’s a very, very, very good tennis player and has a great attitude.”
