That punch gave him a perferated eardrum I heard. That was probably why he reacted the way he did from the partially blocked punch. I think he put up a good fight. Some people said Martinez could have got around his guard any time and finished the fight but I think he was one dimensional. When the drawing barker in move did not work he should have changed his tacktics. However he did not. I have not seen many of his fights, does he always fight like this or does he have other tactics.
