    Burgos out in 4th all over him. Ripping some nice uppercuts and Martinez trying to get off in between them. Like what Xavier does inside. Little piston puncher getting both hands off finishes round strong.

    Nice work off ropes for Burgos behind the jabs. Not a ton on them but cleaner for him. Xavier is slippery with the upper body movement. Smothering himself a bit late 5th and Burgos rips off nice 4 piece combo.

    Nasty sharp left hook snaps Burgos and just pisses him off . Nice response backs Martinez a bit but Martinez so much shorter and sharper puts shots together really well. Tough round 6th

    Xavier Martinez definitely a step above for 16 bouts. Just enjoyable to watch 'work'. 4,5,6 punch combo jolts Burgos badly end of 7th but stays upright. Good shat

    Great tempo scrap. Martinez comfortable ring center or riding ropes with inside work. Burgos tough as always stepped himself up well tonight but in a major hole points wise. Martinez closes round countering same short right down the middle, on a loop!

    Holy hell brutal work with Burgos stuck on ropes taking everything coming and literally saying "whut". Awesome battle this one and balls to the wall exchange as the bell ends it. Give em a bonus

    Scores 99-91 x3 Martinez. Def clear winner. One of those 'competitive' one sided battles though. And crowd booing some . Must be 2 for 1 draft night.

    Burgos has some of the worst footwork I've ever seen. Maybe if he could get in the vicinity of the other fighter occasionally he wouldn't be throwing half his punches off balance.

    Ricardo Espinoza v Daniel Roman should be guaranteed shoot out.

    Daniel Roman sounds familiar is he the git who beat Ricky burns?

    Aha no he isn't, I could have just googled that to start with :S

    I predict the crowd boos again . Roman looked to be in real control and picked his spots all day. Espinoza bleeding from a few different spot tough nut all out though.

    Pat Benatar ring intro..welp it beats shitty mumble rap I guess . Nery talking about going 'back' and looking for the big power.

    Talk about a size difference. Hope Brandon packed his lunch. Nery caught him crisp dropped him but half slip?! Ref rules nothing. He felt that

    The ratio of punches thrown to anything clean landing is amazing. It's almost a shock when one of them lands something.
