    Loading up to much and not THAT big a puncher by the looks of it.. He's going to be ****ed when he steps up.

    Martinez looked good in the opening minute of the fourth, but then Douglin seemed to take over. Martinez just looks too predictable.

    39-37.

    Can't say I'm particularly impressed with either of these guys.

    Martinez straight isn't there at all for him. When he does land it it looks his best punch but he has fallen short way to many times.

    Douglin seems to be trying to steal rounds, last 30 seconds of the last 2 or 3 he really turns it on

    This Martinez is rubbish. Teach me to bet on someone just on their record. Not over yet but my ko bet looks sunk already

    Douglin needs to make Martinez fall short, counter him and pivot to his right. It will work everytime. Martinez' shots are easy to get under on and his feet are ponderous.

    Douglins wheels look to be a bout to come off. Martinez is really looking bad here if he is supposed to be a prospect.

    He walking forwards on rail tracks as well. Far too straight on.

    Douglin draws it level for me there. His punches looked the better of the two and some of Martinez work in that round was just throwing for the sake of throwing.

    Douglin is looking really tired now, and Martinez knows it.

    I have it have it level after 6. very even fight.

    Martinez is starting to lose form. Squaring up and looks even worse when backed up.

    Martinez is not going anywhere. Sorry, but this guy is trash

    Got it 68-65 to Douglin after 7. By my card he wins as long as he doesn't get KO'd in the last round.

    Douglin one up, really good round for him. Helped by Martinez looking to land the right hand failing badly.
