    Good point. Give a dumb man millions and seem him turn into the worst lunatic on the block.

    I don't think he's even top 20 to be honest. Hard to say if he could of beaten Glazkov, Glazkov is a slow starter and border line top 20 himself as he's had a few of controversial decisions.

    Martin is a prime example of how money can ruin someone. All that wealth and freedom to do what they like often leads them down a self destructive path.

    If we see him return to the ring I doubt he'll achieve anything, likely end up being used to pad the records of up and coming fighters. Christ he was short of breath just dancing around spouting garbage into his phone, he'll be a foot note in boxing history, likely as the worst heavyweight title holder ever.

    Yep, well said. Although Briggs/Oquendo might knock Martin of that perch too!

    Exactly. The problem is Martin feels he didn't really have to work for the money; much easier to justify spending it then. He probably thinks he can 'do it again any time he chooses to'. Problem is the hefty AJ paycheck he got was a one-time lottery jackpot winner he can't repeat. Ever.

    My god I've tried to wipe that travesty out of my mind. I comfort myself by believing that whoever wins between Briggs and Oquendo will only hold the WBA's mickey mouse regular belt which is as close to being a genuine world title as the WBF belt.

    I hope he gets better, and does not mess himself up.

    Ain't it popular for the yanks to just blame them pesky Russians theses days

    To it was the FBI fault sorry I mean that racist trump nah sorry I meant the Russians
    Blame others be Weak minded and unable to accept defeat only in america and its rubbing off over hear
    All I heard in 2016 was the sound of kids crying all year
