TIJUANA, MEXICO — Juan Carlos Burgos is ready for his mandated challenge against newly crowned WBO Jr. Lightweight champion Roman “Rocky” Martinez.

Burgos of Tijuana, Mexico is promoted by Thompson Boxing and Banner Promotions.

Burgos, 30-1 with twenty knockouts is now ranked number-one by the WBO and has been informed that Martinez must defend against him next.

The Cristobal Cruz fight left a bad taste in my mouth about Burgos. I think Martinez will KO him. Something tells me Burgos doesn't have the heart necessary to beat someone like Martinez.

I agree!! Even Luis Cruz with his passive style everytime he step the gas Burgos looked uncoftrable.

Rocky chops him down!!

Burgos showed a ton of heart against Hasegawa. He was getting beat to the punch all night and was hurt a several times in the fight and he just kept coming forward trying to press the fight. Should be another Mexico vs Puerto Rico classic.

Burgos lost to Hasegawa in Japan, but Martinez lost to Burns in England and he barely got past Beltran in Los Vegas. I got Burgos anywhere except Puerto Rico. I don't think either of them travel well, but Burgos has been in with tougher competition, so far.

Rocky's going to get KTFO, Burgos is going to finish what Beltran couldn't!

Rocky simply gets hit too much. This should be a very fan friendly fight and a good match up. Burgos might edge him cause his defense is a lil better

Finish what? Beltran couldnt even get started, he connected Martinez with his best punches and Martinez kept coming, didnt even get dropped once. Same is gonna happen to Burgos.
