HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Ryan Martin did not let inactivity due to an injury in last fight affect him. Instead, he sent a message to the other lightweights. Martin batteries and broke down Luis Florez, scoring two knockdowns before the fight was stoped in the fourth round before a sold-out crowd at The Avalon Theatre.
Ryan Martin admits that he was a little stir crazy as a seemingly endless four-month training camp in Big Bear, California finally came to a close. “It’s been quite a journey,” he laughs. “It’s very beautiful up there. But it’s very hard work.” Martin finally made his way down the mountain, making weight for his Tuesday main event against Luis Eduardo Florez at The Avalon in Hollywood, and now he can finally get back to the fun part of this whole thing. He’s happy for that end of things, but as the kids say these days, he’s trusting the process, and the process to get to Tuesday night was four months with coach Abel Sanchez and his gang of killers.
