    After a brutal KO like that, I'd hope he doesn't fight too soon. I really, really didn't like the way he was so out of it. Reminded me of Hatton in '09.

      Let me get this straight... First you get an undeserved shot @ the WBC belt, get brutally knocked out, then think your going to get a shot at the IBF immediately after that? Hmmmm....

        You missed part where he said he has to get into IBF rankings first and would like to fight stiverene to accomplish that

          I hope Martin isn't a bum chaser like BUM squad Wilder.

                The guy was beating Wilder til he made the mistake. So yeah, he is talented, albeit vs paper champion, but still. Shields has done a great job with him. I hope he gets more high profile fights.

                  Yes he did verry well against Wilder especially considering he had just 5 weeks to prepare. I think he has improved but he has a style that is hard for a heavyweight to go 12 rounds with. He fought like a middleweight in the early rounds. Its verry hard to that 12 rounds for a heavyweight. As the fight went on he became less mobile and much easier to hit. But he is talented and still young so im sure we gonna see more good fights with him. Hes fun to watch.

                    You've got some skills but you're forgetting your place. After being brutally stopped time to rest up in Warsaw and set your sights a little lower e.g. Chisora vs Helenius winner. Also the days of the standard size HW is over.
