Kiko Martinez. The man who refuses to go away.

We need more alpha sleep deprived schizo brawlers in this sport.

Also, a ****ing rematch clause. He was brutally KTFO. Come on!

 

This is the one that'll make 'ReMatchroom' a meme for years to come. A rematch for a fight no one wanted anyway, one that ended with conclusive brutality. Maybe Eddie is the one that's turning schizo.

 

E-Hearn: robotic rematch dispenser.

 

You mean he was on a drugs ban.

 

Looking at that photo of his record there, other than a razor tight decision to Warrington and a loss to Gary Russell Jr he doesn't have any proper losses the last 4 years. Most felt he beat Barrett even if he didn't get it it was in reality very close, and a technical draw. Galahad probably just assumed he was in for an easy nights work.

Yes he was schooling Martinez early but he was emptying the gas tank, he also looked like he wasn't fit for 12. Round 4 Martinez was starting to get back into the fight.

 

Was watching this fight till the middle of the 5th round. Galahad looked like he was dominating so I went out grocery shopping. Wow did I miss an amazing ending. Props to Martinez, he was on his way to a loss when he dropped the hammer.

 

Great win for Kiko. Just great to see the heavy underdog take it.

These rematch clauses are so gay. Seems only the Brits are in love with them, to give their golden boys an immediate shot at redemption.

 

I meant what I said. There were lengthy periods bookending his ban. Wale and Dickens had balls back in the day, but nobody of particular note was willing to take a chance on Kid for six years until Warrington had to meet him in order to keep his belt.

Now that would be an all-time moment.

 

And people say Inoue couldn't win a featherweight title

 

Did Wilder not have a rematch clause when he fought Fury? So its NOT only the Brits
