    Sandor Martín Clemente born 08/22/1993 is a 5′7½ Light Welterweight with a 36-2 13 KO's record. Born in and fighting out of Barcelona, Cataluña, Spain. I've long been a low level fanboy of this crafty southpaw Spaniard, I've always enjoyed watching his matches, for boxing purists, he's kind of a joy to behold. His somewhat humorous nickname, which is a combination for the Spanish word for devastating & his first name, is about as apropos as One Time was for Keith Thurman though, but what the hell, it's got a nice ring to it. Regardless, he's no KO artist, but what he does do, is everything well. He rarely makes a mistake, and rarely loses a round. The youngest Spanish Light Welterweight Champion in Spain's history, Sandor who was also briefly a kickboxer, was a solid amateur & turned pro at the very young age of 18 trained by his father Rafa Martín Carbajosa owner of the famous KO Verdún Gymnasium, his first loss came at only 20 against the fairly decent Frenchman Alexander Lepelley who also handed the slippery Eggington conqueror Mohamed Mimoune his first loss, so no big deal there. His other loss came at the hands of the equally underrated Anthony "Can You Digit" Yigit, the man who went toe to toe in a slug fest against Ivan "The Beast" Baranchyk in the WBSS, and was holding his own, until he had to be pulled out due to his eye being the size of a tennis ball, in other words, he's tough as nails. Sandor before Baranchyk gave the Swedish southpaw one of his sternest tests to date in a damn close tit for tat match, that could have easily been scored a draw, that happened when he was merely 24. He's recovered and rebuilt and has gotten better & better with every passing fight. Recently he dominated Italian Andrea Scarpa and was the first man to stop him, a feat heavy handed Ohara Davies was incapable of pulling off. He followed that up with a dominating performance over the teak tough very skilled Brit Joe Hughes, who gave Robbie Davies all he could handle. Will he ever be world level? Who knows, but one thing is for sure, he's the top of the heap when it comes to European level & will be a damn stern test for almost any opponent at 140. He might very well pull up upset over one of the top guys. He's slick with good footwork, nice punch selection, jab, all around very damn good fighter. Wouldn't you like to be aware of him before he does it? So Check The Light Hitting Devastating Craftsman putting on a masterclass.:ggg:ggg:ggg:ggg

    Although I rate Sandor highly. I don't believe the Hughes fight was a fair bench mark. Hughes was Ill for 3 weeks prior to the contest and still carrying a back injury. Far from his best and yet, (despite the commentary) Boxstats show that even though Sandor threw 120 odd more punches, he only landed 14 more than Hughes in the WHOLE fight.
    I'd say that Ritson in Newcastle, Davies in Liverpool or indeed Hughes at full strength would be too much.

    I'm not so sure about that, Hughes is usually a handful for most of his opponents, but he really had nothing for Martin, and I don't buy those punchstats. It was pretty much a domination. Sure, maybe he was carrying an injury, but he looked like the same old Hughes to me,he didn't look badly hobbled or compromised and I say that as someone who really likes Hughes.

    The key factor there is, in Newcastle and Liverpool. I think he could beat Davies and Ritson, although they'd be close contests, and I doubt he'd get the benefit of the doubt from the judges.

    He impressed me against Hughes. European championship level for me. Win some, lose some type. Worthy to fight for major titles.

    Sandor Martin has impressed and improved a lot after his defeat to Anthony Yigit in Sweden.

    His upcoming mandatory for the EBU title is a difficult task though. Purse offer is next month.

    Enock Mwandila Poulsen (11-0) has faster hands and just as good timing and footwork. Here are a few highlights (video from a Danish newspaper website) from his win over another Spaniard Kelvin Dotel, a welterweight. Poulsen picked Dotel apart in every round and impressed a lot with his fast hands and perfectly timed punches.

    Poulsen also had a clear points victory win last year over Michal Syrowatka, who gave Robbie Davies Jr. all sorts of problems, but the Dane was then out for the rest of 2019 due to a knee injury. Now he is back in the gym and ready for the EBU title fight.

    I'm really looking forward for the showdown between Sandor Martin and Enock Poulsen, which will happen in a few months, unless Martin goes for another fight.

    If Sandor comes through against Poulson and I think he will, then I would bet on Hearn and Cherchi offering him a fortune to fight Ritson in Newcastle. I agree that EBU judges are unlikely to dole out home town favour (like the bbbc did for Davies in Liverpool) but i think Ritson could cause an upset.
    Just saying that an injured Hughes is not a good benchmark!
    Disagree about the stats though. The camera doesn't lie. Especially in slow Mo.

    Sandor Martin and his promoter just lost the purse offer for the next mandatory EBU title defense. They were outbid by Danish Fight Night. So now Martin has to travel to Denmark to defend his title against Enock Poulsen. I don't think he can beat Poulsen in Denmark. I see Poulsen as a bigger talent than Anthony Yigit was a few years ago. The Dane will be able to use his slickness and fast hands for 12 rounds to outpoint Martin.
