Lets be honest, Martin was a bum!!!

Martin's no bum

 

That's right. He is worse. There are some bums that at least have heart

 

Martin's no bum.

Joshua is devastating. He showed that you can't stand in front of him.

Well timed shots with insane force behind them.

Martin would still smack a lot of good looking upcomers...

 

Neither Joshua is amazing, nor Martin a bum.

I was going to have a sneakey gamble on Martin, but he looked out of shape/half fit at weigh in so I left it alone. He just came for the cheque. Shameful, but he's better than he showed today.

 

Pure definition of a bum. Did he even throw anything during the fight?

Look at his footwork, Jesus he's stiff as a headboard. My god, this the future of American boxing?? Surely it can't be?

Look at his jab, pathetic, no force behind it, my gran can jab better than that. Leaving himself wide open everytime.

He knew how rubbish he was and he took the payday fight quickly before he lost

 

Just like AJ said, he becomes a bum right after he got beat. Before that he was a dangerous, southpaw SHW. Yeah, he didn't deserve the title shot. But he still won the title against a fringe top 10. No it wasn't a great win, but it was a much better win than Byrd had against Vitali. At least Martin was winning the right. Combined with his demonstrated power, it put made him a legit fringe top 10 hw. He had every reason to be considered a live underdog. What AJ did to him was a big statement. I agree it can be taken too far, I definitely think Fury would still beat him. But he's marked his arrival as a legit belt holder and threat to be an ATG.
