time at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona,

Martinez (18-2 14 KOs) was was set to face long-running
rival McWilliams Arroyo in a rematch, but neck and back
issues ruled the Puerto Rican out, opening the door for

Spaniard, who represented his country in the 2016
Olympic Games, has cruised to 8-0 in the paid ranks
since turning pro in September 2019 and landed the WBA
International title at 112lbs in just his fourth pro

Kelly: "Josh Kelly Being
The British Welterweight Champion Has A Nice Ring To It" |
|
The British Super
Welterweight title bout will be decided this Friday
December 2 on ‘Judgement Night’ in Newcastle when
Sunderland’s Josh Kelly (12-1-1) looks to dethrone
current champion Troy Williamson (19-0-1) at the Utilita
Arena, live on Channel 5.
Kelly holds the WBO International Super Welterweight
title following his unanimous decision win over Lucas

this bout igniting when he squared off with Williamson
in the ring post-fight and showed his desire to take the
Darlington man’s Lonsdale belt.
