Haymon, Spence, Kenny Bayless, & the judges all in his corner, Martin decided to go out dominant Rivera who will now be considered a “bum” by 95% of Boxingscene.
Respect for stepping up to fight a undefeated contender to make a name for yourself.
cong**** ghost, a true player @ 135
Props to Rivera as well, just got outclassed by a better fighter tonight. He’s young & will improve, I’ll be rooting for him.
He started the year fighting on the Jan. 1 heavyweight card (headlined by Luis Ortiz-Charles Martin) as the only non-heavyweight to compete on the televised show. And he closed the year in the the main event of the last Showtime card of the year.
He became a top lightweight contender this year.
Can't wait to see him in the ring with guys like Shakur Stevenson, Gervonta Davis, etc., in the years to come.
