Martinez should get a KO around round 9-11 ... Macklin is a pressure fighter but he's going to get countered all night long, and when he realizes that he's way behind on the scorecards and tries to go for the KO he's actually going to get stopped.
Yes, when you can't beat a way past prime Sturm in convincing fashion you have no chance against Sergio.
I'm confused.. Sturm is past prime? LMAO.. he never fought anyone to begin with.
And Macklin DOMINATED that fight.
Macklin is a very well-rounded boxer but he is too slow. Martinez should be able to beat him with reach and speed from a distance. I see a close fight up until the 7th or 8th round until the speed factor breaks Macklin down. Rounds 9-12 will be a one-sided beatdown during which, Macklin will probably get stopped. Sturm hardly threw any punches while Martinez will strive for the KO
