" I wanted to go the distance."

Absolute bullschit !It was obvious that Anderson tried but couldn't stop Martin.

If Anderson is the future of American Heavyweight boxing, then the future better best be delayed!

Don't know why so many are so hard with Anderson. Martin is experienced with the higher level, is big and hits hard. As of late he has shown resilience and is active to the end of the fight.

Anderson has things to learn but has a lot of good attributes, also it would be more of adjustments in what he does than really changing his style. He is no Berlanga.

If Martin was a bit more aggrressive especially in the 6th round we might have witnessed a major hype train derailment. Instead Martin went passive again after badly hurting Anderson in the 5th, Martin hardly threw any punches in the 6th and then he caps it off with another big clean shot that lands on Anderson right before the end of the fight. Martin fought a bizarre fight, did he get paid a bonus to last the distance?

Martin came in at a weeks notice. No one is going to have their usual energy under those circumstances. Although, to be fair, it isn't far from what Martin does usually anyway.
