Martinez has got shit in his last two fights but the truth is - Macklin and Barker have been underestimated. They're both smart fighters that weren't turning-up to roll over, they tried to win.

Martinez P4P position is fully deserved IMO. Fact.
agreed, even Martinez said that Macklin's more tactical approach took him by surprise so he laid back a bit and took his time with him
