Glad you saw that... I was telling my kid while we were watching how Ortiz kept trying to loop that hook as a counter. And lo and behold, he did that punch from pure positioning, did not even have to maintain eye contact... he kept coming up short, so he just extended it and walla!Comment

Lol... Its amusing to me that Martin was getting so many props here, and suddenly now he is a bum? He was never much, but he can crack and he improved, and fought well considering what he has shown to be capable of in the past.
And that second shot that dropped Ortiz... People need to look at that punch slowly. That was not a flickering jab, it was a pole ax shot placed very well, showing that Martin is indeed a decent puncher, when he catches his mark.
Not saying that Ortiz' legs weren't sht. I mean he looked very Povatkin like with the socialist gait... you know like a fifth of Vodka had been polished off?
But lets not forget that many here thought Martin was legit as a real threat and that Ortiz was going to get bombed out...Comment

No sir! Martin actually improved considerably since that fight with AJ. Not that it makes him excellent, it doesn't, but he matured since then as a puncher. Ortiz was on shaky legs, but the two shots that dropped him were legit. The first one was heavy concussive and thrown from above coming down hard, the second was actually a great pole axe shot. Martin deserves a lot of credit for that shot, it was short, explosive and on target.Comment
