Nobody hands you anything at lightweight. Victor Martinez — "The Brick" to fight fans — has built a 13-6 record the hard way, one fight at a time since leaving the United States's regional scene.
On the feet he's a problem: 7.53 significant strikes a minute at 52% accuracy, and 62% of his wins end in a knockout. The math is bad for anyone standing across from him.
He's coming off a loss to Tom Nolan. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
