    Agreed. Just a bunch of cheap shots.

    He and his team were completely in over there heads dealing with A.J., Slick Eddie, et al.
    Martin's entire team **** the bed for that fight. Martin has been in some good scrapes since then.

    I think Martin would beat Bent, Hide, Liahovich, Stiverne.

    Oleg Maskaev was a very weak chin too

    If Charles was my son then he would be the undefeated and undisputed heavyweight champion right now.

    Maybe I misunderstand the phrase "worst since" but I didn't mean to suggest he is worse or better than Martin but rather about the level.
