    Default The worst HW title fight in 30 years!

    The Martin/Joshua IBF HW Title fight is THEE WORST title fight I EVER saw, and was EVER mistreated to. This fight was God awful, and I mean God awful. I honestly can't think of a HW title fight that sucked and was much of a let down as this one was?! And I have seen a lot of fights.

    Maybe it's because Martin didn't want to get back up after the second knockdown, and we knew he didn't want to get back up. Let's put that next to Tyson/Spinks, which was a full round shorter, but at least we knew Spinks could NOT have gotten back up to fight. So we gatta give Spinks a pass.

    The only other stinky fights I can think of in the last 30 years was Seldon/Tyson and Wlad/Povetkin. I don't think anything can be worse than those three right there, with Johsua/Martin being the worst title fight!

    Name me a HW title fight that sucked as much as Martin/Joshua did. Name one!!

    Hasim Rahman vs John Ruiz, and a couple other fights from each of those guys, were worse. If you mean Martin was the worst person in a title fight in that time I can't argue, but AJ dealt with him accordingly so I don't know what you are griping about.

    The fight stunk. It did not deliver anything. This was a waste of a fight and a title. This fight stunk! At least at the time Ruiz and Rahman were legit guys and fought to the end.... but this fight was pointless aside from the belt being on the line.

    Martin vs Glazkov was worse. It was a trinket lender match in the first place with no belief either would go far at all. Joshua just cleaned up the mess in short order, reset some of the division. Obvious set ups by defending 'champs' like Bowe v Dokes, Valuev v Beck or Povetkin v Rahman are bad.

    Valuev Haye was insulting to watch.

    Been awhile....but I think Seldon vs Hipp was about a jab...even though Hipp looked like he was beaten... I don't remember a single power shot.

    Suspect to say Briggs vs Liakhovich. Except round one and the last minute of the last round.
    For 10 rounds Briggs posed while sucking air...like a 10round asthma attack.

    Kevin Johnson vs Vitali Klitschko. I looked up the stats. Johnson landed 65 punches. 5 power punches.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    So now Joshua beat him easily, you change your tune.

    And maybe Martin is a good champ, but Joshua is something outstanding. I thought it was a good fight. You trying to say Fury was more impressive in beating Wlad ? Or Wilder beating Stiverne ? You trying to tell everyone they were better fights than Martin - Joshua ?

    Come on

    Briggs Vs Liakhovich is the worst fight I have ever seen by a wide margin.

    I'll happily admit I thought it was going to be closer although I always thought AJ would win. I didn't factor in the fact that Martin was just selling his belt and has little or no pride.
    as far as worst HW title fight, it's about taste I suppose. I would rather watch this than 12 rounds of Zero action like Wlad v Povetkin or Fury.
    And if you think it was a shit fight, there's only 1 person to blame. AJ came out and did what he's supposed to do.

    It was crap and a disappointment, but what were you expecting? Hell, Martin is a fighter most of us had never heard of until a few months ago! Happenstance or whimsy....of a drunken boxing God?

    It was a blow out, not the worst fight. Examples provided of Briggs title fight and Ruiz were worse.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
