    I'm pretty sure that the color of someone's skin by itself doesn't increase or lower someone's chance of winning.

    I've never seen Martin, but if he is any good, he should win against Glazkov. Also I assume that Martin will be the favorite in this one.

    The only legit top 10 fighter on the whole card is Wilder. IBF has really screwed up with their rankings. Hopefully they are not back on their old ways.

    Where's all the whining about these two not having 10-14 weeks to prepare.

    When Glazkov was offered Wilder on 8 weeks notice this place nearly shut down the Internet. Now he takes this fighter on a few weeks and crickets.

    By working his way up the rankings fighting talented and powerful opposition.
    The Boxrec rankings of his last 5 fights are;
    188, 249, 93, 494, 330

    That's how you get a title shot:bbb

    Glazkov must think he can beat him with only 3 weeks notice...

    Hypocrites. We know what's up. I don't think Glazkov has fans though. When he was rumored to fight Wilder, he became relevant only because he's a foil for Wilder. Since he's not anymore, they don't care anymore.

    This is an excellent fight. A big leap forward in credibility awaits the winner, along with no modest prize in the vacant IBF title.

    IBF are an utter joke again at heavyweight.
    As are the WBC.

    This fight's happening on the same card as Wilder v. another set-up.

    Really shows how corrupt boxing is. With the Klitschkos fading from the pictue, an American promoter has started to attempt to monopolize the belts in the HW division by putting them into the hands of mediocre fighters. Don't be surprised if Martin gets some sort of favourable treatment in the IBF fight too.

    Everyone knows Fury is the world champion. He's completely right to say the IBF should give him back the sanctioning fees they took for the Wlad fight.

    Another American heavyweight, Dominic Breazelle, will appear on the card too.
    Last time I saw him fight he was soundly outboxed by Fred Kassi but won a wide decision on the judges' cards.

    Neither of them pretend to be THE hw champion of the world, making 3 consecutive voluntaries against no-hopers and still not allowing those no-hopers a full camp to prepare.

    Can have the ibf belt, neither will be classed as a proper world champion.

    I don't know about Kassi winning - I had it a draw, and I watched that fight carefully. But how one judge could not even give Kassi a SINGLE ROUND was completely corrupt. No judge is that inept by the time they reach that level. Kassi was also ripped off against Arreola.

    I hope something happens in boxing, similar to what we are seeing with FIFA at the moment. We can only hope these power-hungry corrupt ABC's will be held to account. Fury's team are saying as much right now.

    1: Random VADA testing for all title fights, paid for by the ABC's out of their obscene cut
    2: ABC organizations enforce their rules to the letter of the law regarding mandatories etc.
    3: All ABC organizations open their financial details for public inspection :deal

    It's in the public interest :deal
