    I think David Haye, Tyson Fury easily smoke him. I'd also back Whyte, Chisora and Hughie Fury.

    Haye vs Martin 50/50? Andrew, never, ever attempt to move into bookmaking.

    I think bias has impacted your brain, idiot. Whether Haye is what he was 4 years ago is much LESS than 50/50. His style as a small hw is dependent on speed, sneaky power. Shoulder surgeries, 15 pounds and being 35 may very well leave him a sub top 30 hw, we won't know until he fights one. And he struggles with SHW's. 50/50 against Martin is very fair.

    McDermott would splatter the version of Martin that showed up against AJ, I think Prince Charles did the best thing for his career and bank account by semi-quitting and maybe getting a rematch over time...?

    I'm sure a few of us are wondering if any of us couldn't have "beat" Martin last night. Seemed to me he avoided AJ with ease when he wanted to in the first, kept AJ at distance, shrugged off the punches that landed and it was all looking interesting. Then he walked into two rights with his hands down and did the old "mistime the count". And the unbeaten young fighter from the hood took the loss very well old chap!

    I heard the real Prince Charles is considering a fight to decide who will become King Charles.
    Although I fancy a Spaniel then to beat the **** out of Martin for thinking he could become one of them.

    I think we're being a bit harsh on Martin. We'll see how he goes on after this loss but I just don't think he's ever been in with a puncher and didn't know how to react to getting splattered. That's what happens when you've had a poor route to the top and the reason why the Whyte fight was so important for AJ to go through. I guess his future will confirm if he really is that shocking or not

    Really?

    He came over here on a jolly. Looked permanently in an altered state of consciousness. Left his hotel to go to a fancy dress party and ended up in a boxing ring. Claimed a few million and went home. Fair play to him, nice work if you can get it son. :lol:
