Hard to judge because Martin really could be anything. He could be a Larry Holmes but then again he could be a Larry Donald. He could be an exceptional world beater. There is next to no footage of him. Highlights packages of Martin mean nothing. Careful editing can make even average fighters look like world beaters. But he's unbeaten so we don't know and people need to start saying that, instead of being so definite about their prediction because we know nothing about Martin.Quote:

Completely agree with everything you just said apart from the result.Quote:

Don't get me wrong, I think Joshua will win, but the Southpaw thing makes me think he's gonna take a few rounds to work him out and stop or KO him a bit later.
LOL you seen the Dollar V Sterling race lately? It is not that much difference nowadays!!! ;)Quote:

Agreed AJ will land early and finish him.Quote:

I do admit that Martin looks a bit cumbersome and a bit of a plodder, but being a southpaw and a little bit wily, I just think it may take AJ a bit of time to work him out.
Obviously I could be wrong and he could do what Tyson did to Berbick.
(Btw that is not a knee jerk comparison of AJ to Mike Tyson, just the situation.)
Thing is, people keep talking about this cagey wiley southpaw but which fight did he show that in?
glazkov (what ever his face is) found him a bit tricky in the first but then out landed him in the second, martin also drops his hands when he punches
he doesn't even really move very quick
if he is as hard as nails you never know, but I don't even think that will be the case, he's got chicken legs
We'll see. 😉Quote:

He hasn't chinned a single fighter that would qualify for a British title shot let alone world (ignoring Glazkov's knee).
I hope you're right.😄Quote:
