“Wonderful” Martínez, annoyed by the KO of Tehran: “I want to kill him”

The former world champion Sergio “Maravilla” Martinez declared himself outraged by the “swimming pool” what his rival would have done last Tuesday, the Colombian John Tehranwho surprisingly fell to the canvas before 2 minutes into the fight that took place at the luna park.

Still in Buenos Aireswhere he will remain until the first days of April, the triple former world champion described as “swimming pool” the fall of his rival when 1 minute, 27 seconds of the first round elapsed. “He jumped on his head”he assured.

“It distressed me that this boy, bah, this grown man of 38 years, has done what he did. I prepared myself to fight with a battalion of Spartans, very prepared for a tough fight, for a strong fight. I would never have expected this guy to come along and do that. No one expected it. Well, maybe he did ”, he recounted in dialogue with telam.

“To kill him… How he dove in with a hand that hadn’t even come clear. As soon as the fight had started, one of mine had entered, clearly, and he had groaned in pain, but that wasn’t for him to fall either. I’m very hot,” added the former junior and middleweight world champion.

“Wonder” Martinez He narrated that there had been a handful of possible rivals in the pipeline and that at the end the organizers of the evening had favored the Colombian Tehran, “but this had not been imagined by anyone. What sense did she have? I had thought: well, this madman didn’t fight anyone, he must have a more or less dumb hand, a heavy hand, surely he’s going to throw some hands, at least try. But he didn’t try anything. Nothing”.

The veteran ranked third in the median ranking of the World Boxing Association (WBA) He said: “I entered with quite strong aggressiveness, quite strong. I entered with enough intensity and I entered to combine feints with blows, but it’s not like I was still working 100 percent. Not crazy. I put in a good hand, but it didn’t stop to fall. None of the hands I put out was for Tehran to fall. On top of that, it made me look bad! On top of that, I want to kill him, “joked the left-handed man from Quilmeño.

After the fight in the luna parka video of the Colombian went viral in which he assured that he had received a proposal of 5,000 dollars to lose, although hours later he regretted what he said, denied what he said and apologized.

“Some whore me. And what’s my fault that the guy doesn’t have dignity? They tell me ‘he was a fool, a fool’. If I had known that this guy was going to throw himself, would I have trained as I trained “Months and months of work. This is very sacrificed. I would not have given myself the tremendous beating that I took. I would have trained just to lose weight. And nothing more. I worked hard to refine the speed, to refine the strength, to refine the power, the reaction, everything. I had boxing in focus, the instinct”, lamented the former Argentine champion.

With the expeditious knockout at the expense of Tehran, Martínez was left with a record of 57-3-2 and 32 definitions before the limit.
