Martinez who is now 33 will have tremendous home support and knows how big the task is, yet remains positive... “I trust my preparation, I’m ready for whatever Lomachenko brings and I know I have the tools to beat him.”
Lomachenko is currently 5/1 (3 Kos) his only loss was a vacant WBO championship challenge in 2014 against Orlando Salido where he dropped a split decision in a bout where the title was only available to Vasyl following Salido failing weight.. The title remained vacant and Lomachenko picked it up by beating Gary Russell jr in his 3rd pro outing.. Lomachenko is fast becoming a fan favourite with a huge following, his popularity is attributed to his all action style, marvellous footwork and positional skills making him illusive and dangerous.. Lomachenko has shown from day one that he isn't afraid to take risks.. Martinez is 29/2/3 (17 Kos) and is a three time world champion, who's last two defences in 2015 were against the man who beat Lomachenko, Orlando Salido, a victory and a draw, retaining the title he defends tonight..
