Thanks Tony. Couldn't see it on their mobile website. Any idea what time? That's a big day of so sport for me. West Ham Arsenal in the morning, Joshua Martin then Pacman Bradley.

And Thai New Year celebrations the following day :yay:

Just checked the Showtime website on my laptop & there's no mention of the fight.

Anyone have any links to where & when it's on TV?

Is Martin chinny or what makes everyone think he's such an easy knockout for AJ?

I think it is just a matter of Martin being such an unknown fighter, that most are going with Joshua. If not on paper, Joshua definitely looks like he should win if you look at pictures. I see Martin as a guy in his prime that is almost as big as Joshua, and a crafty southpaw with good combinations and power. I see Joshua as a young pro being pushed perhaps a little too much in his career. Martin may or may not be the perfect opportunity for him. I'm going on a limb and picking Martin in a a big upset. Its not Joshua's chin I question, even though Whyte rocked him early, but his stamina if it goes late.

I am with you on the upset. Martin is getting dismissed and AJ clearly still has a lot to learn.

Thanks Tony. Appreciate it.

Personally I have this a 50/50 fight. But that's more based on a lack of knowledge rather than what they can do. Both still relatively untested.

I like both fighters too. Best of luck to them both.

It's hard to know just how good Martin is. Glazkov should be fighting at cruiser. The impact Martin's shots seemed to have on him wont be as apparent vs Joshua. And Joshua hits MUCH harder than Glazkov. It's no lock for Joshua but I don't see him losing here. I think he's too good but of course he can get caught.

Joshua will be in serious trouble if the fight goes past 8 rounds , poor stamina

Is Martin strong late on then? He's only stopped one opponent after the 4th (Raphael Love in the 10th) and that was against a man that Joshua stopped in 2 rounds.

I'm American, but yup Joshua is the heavy favorite. I didn't disable anything, that's the way I found it. I don't really consider Joshua-Martin a title fight, but it's a very good fight to have.
