Martinez will be stepping up in weight to face his idol. He will also be doing it on short notice, as it was supposed to be Gonzalez taking on WBA/The Ring super flyweight champion but Estrada pulled out due to COVID. “It was big news to have this big fight against an idol in Chocolatito Gonzalez,” Martinez said to the media, “And I’m happy because I know that we are made for these kinds of challenges. So we are more than ready.”
Martinez said he is highly motivated to win this fight. “Yes, (I’m motivated) more than anything. I’m excited and happy to be fighting a great idol and boxer. It’s not easy, you know?
