Impressive stuff from Smith.  As an aside, why has every victorious fighter been given a belt of some sort?

Because every big fight now is for a title.

The hype for the fight on Saturday is well under way.  Not seen anything of Martin, but can't imagine Eddie Hearn would be risking his future big pay days at the O2 by putting Joshua in with someone too dangerous.

Given the injury wasn't as serious as first thought and the bleed was cranial is there a chance he'd look to box on?

Been watching a big more of the build up to the fight on Saturday and just picked up a feeling of unease amongst the SKY crew.  Was I right hearing that Martin is a southpaw and Joshua hasn't faced one as a pro yet.  Also, picked up a feeling amongst the pundits that Joshua seems a bit too relaxed.

Bit of a slow burner so far tonight. Thought macklin was a bit jammy to get the win earlier. Enjoyed mcdonnell, ground him down then finished him off. Welsh mayweather up next.

I've had some of that. Glorious, Bruno-like failure for joshua in my eyes.

Hunter is frustratingly lazy at times. Up his work rate and he'd be clear now.
