Sergio starts the 7th looking far more composed and settled down, he stakes out the middle of the ring again and is circling, landing jabs, and straight lefts to the body, then inexplicably, he winds up and throws a massive haymaker, missing by a mile, throwing himself off balance and across the ring, Rose follows looking to capitalize, but Sergio avoids it with head movement, Rose pressures hima cross the ring, Sergio makes him pay lands a lopping left up top, knocking his head back, then lands a heavy one two, ose looked rocked for a second or two, Rose goes for several rights and one twos in the last minute, misses most of them.

Round 8 Martínez 10-9

Both men not doing much, Sergio circling and throwing out the jab at least, Rose eats a jab, then another a few seconds later, he stumbles backward and goes down, was that a loss of balance? Yes, but he also went down on a punch, debatably, that should have been a KD. Sergio then throws a wild left, misses badly, Rose and Sergio tie up, Rose works the body, Sergio lands a looping right hook up top, then showboats, then lands another looping power jab, Rose goes for one two, Sergio headlocks him, Rose overshoots with a right, eats heavy jab and straight left, really good rond for Sergio, he's grinning from ear to ear feeling it now.

Round 9 Martínez 10-9

Martinez once again circling the middle of the ring, Rose throwing one twos, Sergio slipping almost everyone with his superior head movement, then firing back with heavy jabs, there's another weird foot issue in an exchange and Rose goes down again, but it was probably a slip, Sergio jabs him a few more times, a relatively quiet round, Sergio far more accurate.

Round 10 Martínez 10-9, close

Both men while tired, still fairly game, but also sloppy, Rose trying to catch him with counters, Sergio's head movement still sharp enough to evade most of them, Sergio and Rose both landing their fare share of jabs, Sergio managing to land the heavier ones, Rose goes for some one twos, Sergio fires back landing his, but overall a fairly ugly round, Sergio outworked him by a hair or two.

UD for Martínez

 

I was too, and after seeing that, I have zero desire to see him in against someone with a pulse. Granted, I also felt that way before seeing it. Sergio looked decent, his reflexes were still there at least against a Rose level guy, and that was good to see, and while he and Rose were both tired in the 10th, neither were badly gassed. So his stamina is still decent. But his balance is still off and he easily loses his footing when sitting down on a shot. As long as he stays at this level, I have less of an issue with him hanging around for a few more fights, he seems to be enjoying himself, but someone needs to have an intervention with him if he even contemplates stepping in with someone with even a faint pulse.

For a 46 year old with bad knees and less than stellar balance, pretty excellent. But as an actual contender, not even close.

 

No, none at all.
