Charles Martin Biography

Charles Martin is one of the most popular and richest Boxer who was born on April 24, 1986 in St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Former IBF heavyweight champion who suffered his first defeat to Anthony Joshua after going 23-0-1 in his previous 24 fights. He won 21 of those fights by knockout.

Only Tony Tucker held the IBF heavyweight champion title for a shorter time than Charles.

Joshua set the pace in the first round and kept the southpaw Martin at bay before sending him to the canvas with a straight right hand in the second round. Martin got to his feet only to be knocked down for a second time by a similar punch just moments later. This time Martin failed to beat the count after taking too long to get up, and the referee waved the fight off, with Joshua winning his first world title. Martin was heavily criticized for his performance, and apparent lack of ambition to win the fight. Observers accused him of quitting early, feeling that he could have got up quicker and fought on. Martin later placed the blame on the pre-fight distractions, claiming that he was ‘mentally not there’. At just 85 days, Martin’s reign as IBF heavyweight champion was the second-shortest in professional boxing history, with only Tony Tucker’s 1987 reign being shorter.

Martin turned professional on October 27, 2012. He made his TV debut on ESPN July 19, 2013, when he beat Aaron Kinch by a fourth-round TKO. On September 21, he beat then-undefeated Vincent Thompson (13–0). The fight was in Thompson’s home state Washington and Martin got a unanimous decision. He dropped Thompson in the first round, for the first time in his career. On October 25, Martin defeated Haitian Dieuly Aristilde, by TKO in round one. On November 14, Martin became the first man to ever stop Joey Dawejko. Martin dropped Dawejko in the 4th round. Dawejko’s corner asked to get the fight stopped between the 4th and 5th rounds. Charles Martin fought 11 times in 2013. On December 21 he won against undefeated Cuban heavyweight Glendy Hernandez (10–0).

He has four children.
