Can Martin improve/be better than he looks? Yes. Can he cause the upset? Yes. Is it an excellent matchup? Yes. Should AJ be a strong favourite on paper? Yes.

Fury is not a big puncher, naturally you'd give Martin more chance of beating him considering the sparkage is less likely.
Cant believe you are seriously using that comparison.

How long did it take Ali to get rid of Patterson compared to Liston who Ali knocked out in a round?

How long did it take Mike Tyson to get rid of James Tillis?

You know how it works, there would be hundreds of examples like this. Martin is a more cautious boxer. He can punch and is a southpaw so there is risk.

He does have a better win with Glazkov than anyone Joshua has faced regarldess of how the fight ended Martin was in control.
