By Scott Gilfoid: IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0-1, 21 KOs) doesn’t think too highly of challenger Anthony Joshua’s Olympic credentials from the 2012 London Olympics. In fact, Martin believes that the 6’6” British Joshua was given a gift gold medal in that Olympics due to him being the Londoner fighting in front of what appeared to be a large crowd of British fans.
Having seen the 2012 Olympics, myself, I must agree with Martin. I thought Joshua should have been eliminated from competition straightaway in his first match against Cuba’s Erislandy Savon, who appeared to get the better of Joshua throughout the fight. The scoring was just nonsensical in my view, as I saw Savon landing head-snapping shots with the white portion of his gloves repeatedly and he wasn’t consistently being given points.
By Scott Gilfoid: Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs) doesn’t think he’s facing the toughest opponent in his fight this Saturday night against IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0-1, 21 KOs) at the O2 Arena in London, UK. In other words, it appears that Joshua is overlooking the hard hitting Martin by dismissing him as not the best opponent of his short three-year pro career. 
By Scott Gilfoid: IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0, 21 KOs) doesn’t plan on leaving the outcome of his fight this Saturday night against Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs) into the hands of the judges in their fight at the O2 Arena in London, England. 
By Scott Gilfoid: WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder sees this Saturday’s contest between giant heavyweights Charles Martin and Anthony Joshua as a purely 50-50 toss up fight that is impossible for him to pick a winner in. Deontay, 6’7”, says he would like fellow American talent Martin to win the fight, but he sees it as a tough one for him. 
By Dan Ambrose: Former world title challenger Eric Molina (25-3, 19 KOs) is hoping to capitalize on his 10th round knockout victory from last Saturday night over former two division world champion Tomasz Adamek (25-3, 19 KOs) to try and get a title shot against the winner of this Saturday’s fight between IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0-1, 21 KOs) and Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs). 
By Scott Gilfoid: IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has analyzed this Saturday’s contest between IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0-1, 21 KOs) and Britain’s Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs) and come to the conclusion that all Joshua has is a puncher’s chance to beat the talented 6’5” Martin in their fight on April 9 at the O2 Arena in London, UK. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Unbeaten heavyweight Anthony Joshua believes that former two division world champion David Haye (27-2, 25 KOs) will be fighting former WBO heavyweight champion Shannon “The Cannon” Briggs in the near future. It’s a fight that makes all the sense in the world for Haye to make. He needs publicity, and Briggs would bring him that. However, it would also be a risky fight for Haye because he’s little more than a pumped up cruiserweight, and not a true heavyweight like Briggs. When you get a pseudo heavyweight like Haye taking on real heavyweights like Briggs, bad things can happen to the artificial heavyweight.
By Scott Gilfoid: IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0, 21 KOs) isn’t worried about fighting in the hometown of unbeaten challenger Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs) in their fight on April 9 at the O2 Arena in London, UK. 
By Scott Gilfoid: IBF heavyweight champion Charles Martin (23-0, 21 KOs) will be making his first defense of his title next month against Britain’s Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs) inside the lion’s den on April 9 at the O2 Arena in London, UK. Martin expects this fight to end by a knockout, but not him being the one that’s flattened. Martin feels he’s going to KO Joshua in front of his own fans on April 9 and he could be right.
