New School Pick of the Week: Vanes Martirosyan
By Jake Donovan 
If there's anything worse than having a nightmare while sleeping, it's living through one while you're awake.
Welcome to the world of anyone standing in the opposite corner of undefeated junior middleweight Vanes "The Nightmare" Martirosyan.
It's been pure hell for each of Martirosyan's 18 opponents (and counting) to date, as the transplanted Armenian has not lost a round, never mind a fight, since turning pro in early 2005. That streak, along with his winning ways (18-0, 12KO), both figure to continue Thursday. On tap is once-beaten Midwestern junior middleweight Michi Munoz, as Martirosyan is slated for his first scheduled ten-round bout, which serves as the co-feature for the next installment of VERSUS FIGHT NIGHT series.
The bad news gets worse for Munoz and all future opponents – Martirosyan continues to improve with every fight. If there was a single criticism to his game, it's that the Armenian all too often sought the knockout without the benefit of a jab to set up his attack. A typical Martirosyan fight went as follows: bell rings, Vanes is in your face, launching power shots from all angles until you either fall or have lost every round.
