WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez is facing one of the toughest fighter’s of his career on April 27 in Argentina, according to manager and advisor Sampson Lewkowicz.

Martinez takes on Briton Martin Murray at Velez Sarsfield FC’s stadium next month and Lewkowicz believes that the formidable title-holder has a real battle on his hands, despite the fact that he is a strong favourite to win.

“I rate Murray as one of the most dangerous challenge’s Martinez has faced as a champion,” Lewkowicz told World Boxing News.

“Not only will this an historical event, this will mark a precedent in the boxing world.”
