Argentina former world champion Sergio “Maravilla” Martínez (52-3-2, 29 KO’s) will return in his second fight since coming out from retirement for another rumble on December 5 in España.

Martínez, currently ranked #6 by the WBA, will be fighting a 10-rounder middleweight battle against a yet to be announced opponent.

The former 2-division world champion born in Quilmes, Buenos Aires, might be wanting to challenge WBA “regular” middleweight world champion Ryota Murata in Japan in 2021.

Last August 21, Martínez dropped and knocked out Español super middleweight fighter José Miguel Fandiño in 7 rounds in a televised clash at El Malecón de Torrelavega in Cantabria, 🇪🇸 España.

How far will the 45-year-old Sergio “Maravilla” Martínez go in his return to boxing? Wishing him the best of luck.
