With Charles Martin as the champion, the opportunity is golden. I was thinking Kovalev, Ward, Stevenson and Beterbiev can all challenge Charles Martin. What other possibilities?

I don't think Ward wants to do that. Kovalev isn't that big. If Beterbiev is the truth, he's ****ing massive for a LHW and I could see him beating up some terrible HW beltholder.

PBP it would be nice to see a smaller man pick up the belt but in this day and age I'm not sure if it's possible. Does Charles Martin really suck that much? I need to see more against elite opposition before i pass judgement.

Originally posted by PBP. View PostI wonder that too. Roy Jones had sick reflexes and timing and fought exclusively on the outside. Andre Ward relies on physical strength and does most of his work inside which I can't see being effective against a heavyweight. With Kovalev and Beterbiev it's a matter of how well they can put on the weight and carry their power up but even then I question whether they can take a punch from a 6'5 heavyweight like Martin.

Was gonna vote and then I caught myself...
Say what you want but "Prince" Charles Martin is a 6'5, 240lb, 80" reach, southpaw heavyweight with pop. good luck.
None of the guys mentioned, sans the weight cut, even get to being the size of "Czar" Glazkov, and he was simply overwhelmed by the size, for comparison's sake.
