A bit of both actually, imho Joshua has only size and raw strenghth going for him, I don't see anything special technic or talent wise, Martin on the other hand is quite underrated, I see some subtlety in his game, he's patient, doesn't rush in, can counterpunch quite nicely and his defence while not stellar is solid enough, he also can crack as we have seen, I think people are sleeping on him, probably due to lack of experience but the same can be said of Joshua.

Put it this way I would rather face fury than joshua .....fury talks about muscles because he has a physique like a sack of potatoes lol.....say that to foreman , holyfield , hagler and even mayweqther thay was all well defined and muscly......fury still need to prove himself whether the klitchcko fight was a fluke........all I know is when the time comes for facing off with fury my money will be on joshua...we will see

Lol Fury is a funny guy but it is 50/50 but that is in every fight really. Boxing can be very unpredictable and i was one of few that gave fury a chance but i thought he would of stopped klitschko so i did not win my bet .
Anyway Joshua indeed has a body builders physique but and this is a big but! the guy can ****! and has knocked out some solid chins. ( i was very impressed with what Dillian whyte took in that fight).
Put that with a decorated amateur career and he is a soldier professional. Technique wise i think it is just experience with him and he has all the tools.
Joshua is a slight favourite and i have to admit this is almost like two prospects fighting for a title which i like.
Both are unproven that is the only reason i would call this close but i give it 60/40 Joshua because he has proven more than Charles Martin to me.

I see this as 60-40 fight for Joshua.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

I don't think there's any way Joshua would have gone for this if everyone around him wasn't 100% sure he'd win it. I'll bow to their wisdom and business sense.

Have anyone of you actually seen Martin fight outside of Glazkov? He's very basic and not conditioned well. Joshua should demolish him easily.

Both are good fighter's but if I had to bet on one. My money is on Joshua
