Sergio “Maravilla” Martínez Returns to Action Tomorrow in España
By Carlos Costa PhilBoxing.com Thu, 20 Aug 2020

After 6 years in retirement, Argentina’s former 2-division 🌎 world champion Sergio “Maravilla” Martínez (51-3-2, 28 KO’s) returns to action when he faces Spain’s José Miguel Fandiño (15-6, 8 KO’s), a younger Middleweight fighter who hails from Gijón, Principado de Asturias in Northern Spain. 🥊
Maravilla’s 10-round non-title middleweight return unfolds tomorrow, August 21, at El Malecón in Torrelavega, Cantabria, España, supervised by the Federación Española de Boxeo. 💥💥
The action will be televised live throughout Latin America where “Maravilla” Martínez is still very popular. ⭐️
The last time the now 45-year-old “Maravilla” Martínez climbed the squared ring was for his star 160-pound world title battle against now retired Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto.
The clash ended up being a tough rumble that warrior-heart “Maravilla” lost in 10 chapters at the famed New York’s Madison Square Garden. The year was 2014. 😬
Fast-forward 6 years from that tough and hot New York evening and boxing fans find out that Maravilla Martínez’s love and desire for fighting is still intact — and he wants to keep going. 🥊
