bout. The injuries sound pretty serious. Read on....
According to Martinez's Boxing Promoter, Lou Dibella, Martinez went to the hospital and has suffered a broken left hand and a tear in his right knee. All I can say is ouch, especially after watching the magnificent fight that both he and Chavez put on.
Talk about heart. I really enjoyed the fight, and knowing now that Martinez fought through a broken hand and torn knee... well talk about a warrior! Those are serious injuries! I am not a doctor, but I will say the torn knee alone could be a retirement kind of injury... and a broken hand is a serious injury for any boxer. Most boxers would probably have quit on their stool...but not Martinez! Injuries and all, he fought like a true Superstar Champion.
Both Martinez and Chavez really put on a great show. Although Martinez did dominate, Chavez never stopped coming and was always in the game. Chavez played his role in ensuring it was a fun scrap to watch. It was the kind of fight that reminds me why the hell I love boxing so much.
We will stay on top of Martinez having to go to the hospital and give our readers updates as soon as available. Stay tuned to Doghouse Boxing for all your fix on tonight's fights.
