|
|
By Rick Reeno BoxingScene.com has confirmed that Raul 'The Cobra' Martinez (28-1, 16 KO's) was forced to withdraw from his scheduled shot at IBF super flyweight champion Cristian Mijares (41-6, 18KOs). The fight was set for May 14 in Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. Martinez suffered a bad cut on his nose during a recent training session. The handlers for Mijares are looking for a late replacement. Martinez, the IBF's mandatory challenger, will wait for a new date.

[QUOTE=BIGPOPPAPUMP]Raul is the mandatory so the shot is in the bag, whether it's Mijares or whoever holds the belt by the time Martinez recovers from the cut.:smileysex[/QUOTE]
That's good to hear. I wish him luck. |

That cut looks pretty bad, I agree that it was probably from a headbutt.
I wonder who they're gonna find to replace him on such a short notice. The next challenger in the IBF rankings, Rodrigo Guerrero, just fought last weekend. Ricardo Nunez also had his fight only a month ago and Alberto Rosas ... |

[QUOTE=Carlos Alberto]Phucken guys. Have they ever heard of a cross-bar headhear? Who knows when he'll get another title shot! Raul is 29 years old already and has failed to acquire a title yet. He really was a standout amateur and is a very solid pro; the train is passing him by!!![/QUOTE]
