Both fighters landed some heavy shots and tested each other during the first round, but Martin started to get the upper hand in the latter part of the round, landing heavy roundhouse kicks to his opponent’s body.
On advice from his corner, Martin targeted his opponent’s body in the second round, landing his trademark body shots and clearly putting his opponent in trouble.
With his opponent unable to defend himself, the referee stepped in to call a halt to the bout, crowning Martin the new champion.
