    Oh, God. I'm genuinely not sure, the McCallum/Jackson fights are not good stylistic comparisons when gauging Grahams chances against Martinez. And they're all I can remember well. I'm useless here :lol: :good

    How do you see it going Gaz? Or Martinez Vs McCallum for that matter?

    If you put this in general it would be a landslide for Martinez

    I think Graham has a very good chance in reality

    I would have Graham pushing him very close but Martinez nicking it on points, his style is so adaptable in my opinion

    Hmmm I'd say Martinez, simply because the guy seems to get better each fight, whilst we know Bomber always seemed to fall short in his big one's.

    And I can see Martinez timing a left hand to explode on Bomber, as tricky as Grahams defense was, i dont think he'd avoid a shot from an opponent as awkward as Martinez.

    Graham is certainly stronger, much dirtier and better on the inside. A bit faster as well. Martinez seems to be fighting with great confidence at the moment so it would be competitive but I can't see anything other than a messy but clear ud for Graham. Especially in the UK.

    This would be like the ending of Graham's fight with Jackson.

    Graham would win this easily remember graham's the same cat who got robbed against mike maccalum when maccalum was still a prime being, if he can beat some 1 as technically astute as maccalum, martinez would be easy meat.

    I think herol would be outboxing Martinez for a good bit of the fight,winning by a few rounds before getting caught with a big left hand around the tenth round..

    I love Graham and all, but he wasn't robbed against McCullum!

    IMO Graham wins a very, very close decision over Martinez.
