    Because there a bunch of cowards!!
    Chisora
    Joyce
    DDD
    All these guys have said no to fighting Martin.
    Would AJ have the balls to fight him December? I very much doubt it.

    Unfortunately Billy, Martin is in the who needs him club. High risk, low reward. Martin’s best bet is to climb the rankings imo. Hunter is looking for a fight as Hughie has pulled out again, any chance of Martin getting that rematch?

    Suprising that Joyce said no as he was sort of being left in the wilderness himself pre Parker. DDD might also be forced into fighting someone like him as he's in a bit of no man's land himself despite having that silly WBA belt.

    Maybe you guys could go after guys like Makhmudov, Hrgovic, Kossobutskiy etc.

    If people are avoiding him then best way is to be alot more active climb rankings force fights to happen unfortunately boxing politics at times

    This is the thing surely would have made sense to stay with Matchroom and be active. 2/3 fights against active fighters and try to move to a high Ranking. Let’s face it as it stands a fight for most top guys against Martin is currently high risk low reward.

    maybe create a social media campaign for Martin getting him to call out each of the fighters individually get people talking about him. No harm in tryin GB I get the Dubois fight now Browne isn’t cleared although have a feeling Charr will get that Once Del fights Fury

    I'd much rather Joshua fights Bakole than granpa Areola. But high unlikely he'd take the risk.

    Viewed too high risk and little reward.

    Hopefully Nakole can get a fight with some who is known by casuals like a Chisora to boost his knownbility.

    Not sure who Martins promoter is now as last I knew it was MR but by the sounds of Traffords post above he's left them now.
    I dont know the reason why he left but maybe he would of been better staying there, unless of course he felt he was getting 'frozen out'
    It's hard to see how his career goes from here Billy, you could do with a bit of luck. Or maybe get some backing and get an eliminater for the ibf, Martins placed well with all the governing bodys and the ibf, think there's only 3 above him, including AJ who will probably look for a 'comeback fight'.

    Unfortunately it's like most have pointed out and a fact of which I'm sure your well aware Martins stock is not high enough for the gamble.

    We’re on a boxing forum and a pro trainer is posting here why do you have to be like that about the points you are making?
