Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-06-11, speed, excellent technique and an astonishing finish:
Vasyl Lomachenko vs Roman Martinez is one of the
best boxing fights of 2016 and it gets four stars!
The Wbo super-Fw champion Roman Martinez entered this fight with a professional record of 29-2-3 (17 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.9 super featherweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Javier Fortuna). He suffered his last loss when he faced Mikey Garcia in 2013 (=Garcia vs Martinez), after this bout he has won over Herbert Quartey and Orlando Salido (=Salido vs Martinez I) but then he drew with Salido in their rematch (=Martinez vs Salido II).
His opponent, the 2012 and 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist and Wbo Fw champion Vasyl Lomachenko entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 5-1-0 (3 knockouts – but he has an amazing amateur record of 396-1) and he entered as the No.11 featherweight. He lost to Orlando Salido at his second pro bout in 2014 (via split decision, Salido vs Lomachenko), but then he has won four fights beating Gamalier Rodriguez (=Lomachenko vs Rodriguez) and Romulo Koasicha in 2015 (=Lomachenko vs Koasicha). ‘Rocky’ Martinez vs Lomachenko is valid for the WBO World super featherweight title.

Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-09-12, close fight with some good exchanges:

Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-04-11, good pace and some nice exchanges: the fight between
Orlando Salido and Roman Martinez was very close and it gets three stars.
The former Ibf and Wbo featherweight world champion Orlando Salido entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 42-12-2 (29 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.8 super featherweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Takashi Uchiyama) while his opponent, Roman Martinez, has an official record of 28-2-2 (17 knockouts) and he entered as the No.13 in the same weight class. Both boxers suffered their last defeat in 2013 and both against Mikey Garcia: Salido lost in January (=Salido vs Garcia) while ‘Rocky’ Martinez was defeated in November (=Garcia vs Martinez). After losing Salido won the vacant Wbo Fw title against Orlando Cruz (=Salido vs Cruz), defended the belt with Vasyl Lomachenko (=Salido vs Lomachenko) and then he moved up in weight class to the super-Fw division beating Terdsak Kokietgym in one of the best boxing fights of 2014 (valid for the interim Wbo super-Fw title=Salido vs Kokietgym). Martinez instead, after losing to Garcia, has fought just once beating Herbert Quartey. ‘Siri’ Salido vs Martinez is valid for the WBO World super featherweight title.

Review: 2013-11-09, pretty good fight with two knockdowns: Miguel Angel Garcia vs Roman ‘Rocky’ Martinez gets three stars. The undefeated Mikey Garcia (32-0-0, 27 KOs=84%) entered as the No.1 super featherweight in the world while Roman Martinez (27-1-2, 16 KOs) entered as the No.12. Garcia vs Martinez is valid for the WBO super featherweight title (Martinez’s third defense). Watch the video!
Review: 2013-04-06, close fight with some good exchanges but it is not enough to get three stars. Roman Martinez (26-1-2) entered as the No.13 super featherweight in the world while the undefeated Diego Magdaleno (23-0-0) entered as the No.15. Martinez vs Magdaleno is valid for the WBO super featherweight title; undercard of Brian Viloria vs Juan Francisco Estrada . Watch the video!
Review: 2010-09-04, Ricky Burns vs Roman Martinez was one of the best boxing fights of 2010. The undefeated Martinez (24-0-1) had won the WBO super featherweight title in United Kingdom (2009 against Nicky Cook), had already defended his belt twice and probably he was not even worried to come back to UK for his third defense against Ricky Burns (28-2-0), Scottish boxer at his first attempt for a world title. In fact in the first round Martinez knocked down Burns but the fight did not end, “Rickster” Burns recovered and managed to win the match! First defeat for Roman Martinez after twelve exciting rounds of boxing. Watch the video!
