Never forget that Charles Martin walks this Earth like a GOD.

One cannot speak the name Charles Martin without also saying “former heavyweight champion.”

"With this win i expect to be Nr.1 in the Heavyweight division"

Oh boy we are talking about a win against Charles Martin. This win should not even earn someone a top 15 spot. A healthy Sanchez is a problem and would definetly have beat him again and he knows it and thats the reason he walked away from the fight. Smart business move and weak mentality.

If Zuffa crowns a heavyweight "champion" without Usyk, Wardley/Dubois winner, or Kabayel involved in the fight that belt is going to matter even less than that silly trinket Pulev is carrying around.

Pulev would have been the best win of Ajagbas career but not sure if he could beat Pulev, maybe now after he got KOed again.

Martin vs Luis Ortiz was one of the most hilarious fights I've ever seen. I expect more of the same here. It's for a Zuffa Belt? Lol. "Our champion is 10th best in the division!"

[KING S.O.G]

With Usyk's imminent retirement, three major belts will soon become vacant. Many opportunities will be within reach for guys like Ajagba.

I'm kinda happy to see Martin get a semi big fight because he seems like a good dude, and a boxing lifer, even if I don't think much of his skill set. I'll make sure to watch it when I finish working today. I just really hope they're both getting compensated because I doubt Dana treats his fighters fairly.

I've only seen a few of Charles Martin fights. He does possess some power, but he's aging, so that power will be diminishing. He is a pretty decent counter puncher though, and a lot of experience. He's fought some big names such as AJ, Luis Ortiz, Kownacki, and Jared Anderson. But he doesn't really move his head that much, doesn't slip punches that well, and he doesn't throw as many punches as he should. Efe has some power, so I wouldn't be surprised if Efe catches him and wins by KO. Efe Ajagba has to win this because a loss or draw would really set his career back.
