WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez held a press conference in Argentina to discuss the status of his career and several topics of interest. Martinez disclosed that negotiations are still ongoing for a March fight with unbeaten WBO junior middleweight champion Sergei Dzinziruk. The two sides have not reached an ageement but Martinez believes the contest will end up happening on March 12 at Madison Square Garden.
He says Dzinziruk is a very good fighter, with a tailor made style. Martinez thinks that he can stop the unbeaten champion inside the distance.
"There was talk of Sebastian Zbik, Irish boxer Andy Lee and several other rivals, but a Dzinziruk deal is close. Dzinziruk is the classic German fighter. He is left handed and a bit taller than me, a good jab, and good counters. I think he's made for me. Based on my fighting style, defense and timing and keeping a good distance, I can calmly say that I will win, and even inside the distance," Martinez said.
