Result: Anthony Joshua def. Charles Martin (TKO, round 2)
マッチアップ:★★
スリル:★★★★
スキル:★★
印象度:★★★
実力者ではないが一応無敗の米国人のタイトルホルダーを、わかりやすく吹っ飛ばしてくれたジョシュアは英国人の観客の自尊心を大いに満足させたことでしょう。
大男が大男をぶっ飛ばすという漫画的で単純な絵図ら。
ヘビーウェイトはこれが大事。
毎回こうはいかないでしょうが、この試合のようなイージーファイトはヘビーウェイトのタレントには必要で、セルフプロモーションも兼ねていると言って良い。
難敵ばかり相手に接戦を勝ち抜き続ければ、識者やコアなボクシングファンには評価を得られるがマーケットを引っ張っていくような存在になるかというと疑問。
ライトなファン、普段はボクシングに興味がないような人にもアピールするには、解りやすさが重要。
ヘビーウェイトのタレントにはそれが求められる。
ジョシュアは解りやすさがあり、ブライド・オブ・ブリテンへの道のど真ん中を歩いています。
今後マーケットを引っ張っていって欲しいし、多分そうなるでしょうね。
地味目に方向転換しつつあるワイルダーより一般受けしそう。
決してワイルダーがダメだと言っているわけではなくスーパースターにはならないだろうなという意なんだけど。
本日の獲物。
