From Martin jumping into this fight because it was his biggest possible payday I'm going to go with Joshua. But Martin will be fighting like he's got nothing to lose so anything could happen.
I think that plays huge in this and is being overlooked. Martin has this another day at the office/rastafarian/tranquil/lets just do it thing going on. Maybe its as simple as you say in that he's just glad to be getting what I assume is 7 figures. Perhaps its good enough for him to help out his family members and get himself free and clear but I dont know his situation. Maybe he's solid and flush. I think thats who he is and its a breath of fresh air. Like Fury but a from a different angle. I'd wager both men are like they are in real life. No act. The trash talk Martin has recently started is an act.

Joshua still plods around, cant jab a lick and imo still has a chin question. Martin has a heavy jab and seems to know which way to move to take advantage of being a southpaw to get that straight left in.
Sounds a bit like Audley Harrison LOL but its whats above the shoulders. I doubt Martin was sleeping in silk sheets at 20.
