Marvelous Option…”Beauty” or the “Beast?”

Former World Boxing Council super welterweight and a middleweight champion Sergio “Maravilla” Martinez is doing a superbly meticulous training camp to be in great shape aiming for a beautiful return after six years out of the ring.

Aged 45 and with a record of 51 wins with 28 knockouts, 3 losses and 2 draws, Martinez will face an opponent ten years younger, José Fandino (15 wins and 6 losses).

“What I have is a spectacular ambition. A desire for challenges, to live this as an adventure, I know I have a cartridge left and I want to exploit it to the fullest. 45 years, when practically any athlete in any discipline, or in many disciplines, would have to retiring or retiring a long time ago, I’m coming back. It is a stage of my life that I want to live with intelligence, with the wisdom that the 25 years of boxing left me,”said Martínez.

“I am not coming  back for money, as I am lucky to have things earned and put by for  a good life. There are very solid foundations regarding the business I have. My return may be the beginning of something very beautiful or it may be the end of something very beautiful. On the 22^nd august I will be able to know what it is. It all depends on what I will feel and, as I feel it, we will see what the future is.”

Martínez will participate in an attractive card on August 21, at the El Malecón stadium in Cantabria, Spain,  where the undefeated Sergio García (31-0,  27 KO) and former super bantamweight champion Kiko Martínez (40-9-2, 28 Ko`s) will participate.
