How do you rank Charles Martin in your list of former HW beltholders?

Not ranked.

 

Martin is probably better than Stiverne to be honest and thats it.

 

Negative.
Stiverne got an impassive stoppage win over world title challenger Arroela.

 

Above Stiverne for sure.

 

:deal

I'm convinced the fight was rigged.

 

Martin was clueless, like he didnt watch any videos of Joshua

Its hard to believe that was the same guy who came out very active against Glazkov; this was his first title defence too.

Ha came for the paycheck only, and thats pretty obvious

 

Hes just not good. I ll never understand why anyone comes out to fight joshua.

Anyone with any sense will make him throw and diffuse him for as long as they can.

These morons are trying to fight him. Too big and too strong for that.

Joshua needs to be investigated tho. Martins a big man 6 foot 4. Full training camp. New s and c coach. Just got blew away by a guy that was laughing.

 

I agree. The worst heavyweight titleholder in history.

 

Martin fought EXACTLY the same way against Glazkov. And he lost the opening rounds in that fight, too. The only difference is this time, the guy he was fighting didn't twist his knee and injure himself.

The whole episode is just ugly. Fury never should've been stripped. Martin did nothing to qualify for a title shot. He did nothing in being handed a vacant belt. And he did nothing in defense of it.

Take any journeyman heavyweight on the planet who could stand up for two rounds against Glazkov, and he could've been award the belt when Glazkov twisted his leg and he could've got wiped out by Joshua, too.

I expect Martin will be the division's KO puppet for the next couple years before he calls it quits. He's an easy win for anyone who can actually fight.

 

I will give Charles Martin credit for something: in his first title defense, which he arranged very quickly after his title victory, was against a tough opponent, unlike Deontay Wilder who has had his belt for quite awhile now and still hasn't fought anyone good.

 

Martin would've lost to everyone Wilder defended against. In fact, he probably will lose to all of them in the coming months.

 

I disagree, he moved more, moved better, and threw more

 

martin cacked his pants when he walked out into the 20,000 cauldren all over his face.
