Yes, he is clearly for real. He walked through Macklin, but you could see the intelligence in doing so. He was busting Macklin up with EVERY punch. Both eyes were screwed and then that peach of a body shot that doubled Macklin over. I sat there and thought to myself 'That was something special'. He should be a lot of fun over the next few years.

I think Martinez is old now and has been getting older, but they have to fight. You have to fight him and pass the torch on. I don't see what Martinez could do with his fading legs and hands down style. I can see him getting stopped in 6. Prime Martinez would do much better, but he isn't in his prime with all these injuries and age creeping up.
