Watch Martin vs. Felix live on DAZN
Heading into his 2022 debut on Friday against Jose Felix Jr., how would Sandor Martin perform coming off the biggest win of his career when he notched one of the biggest upsets in 2021, winning a decision over former four-division world champion Mikey Garcia?
Martin put on another stellar performance, using his superior boxing skills to win a lopsided decision (100-90, 100-90, 99-91) over Felix at Palau Olímpic Vall d'Hebron in Martin's hometown of Barcelona, Spain, which was live on DAZN across the world. DAZN News scored the fight 98-92 for Martin.
Throughout the fight, the name of the game was great footwork, quicker hands, and the patented right hook for Martin. He used his speed to get in and out of shots, which caused Felix to miss wildly on several occasions. Anytime Felix came forward, Martin would flick the right hook to keep Felix at bay. He set up the right hook with a crisp jab to the body which made Felix reluctant to come in as those were taking a toll on him as the fight wore.
Martin's (40-2, 13 KOs) now won 11 consecutive fights as he inches closer to a world title opportunity.
