Frank Martin will fight Barthelema on October 25 at Undercard of Sebastian Fundor vs. Keith Thurman at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Martin revealed on Instagram that he would fight the former world champion in two Barthelemy divisions (30-3-1, 15 KO).

Fans criticize Martin’s return

Social media fans are critical of delicate Martin, who decides to fight 39-year-old Barthelem. This is too much a step in the competition for Martin from the opposition, which he faced.

Martin (18-1, 12 KO) will set off from a 16-month release from his eighth defeat from Gervont Davis on June 15, 2024. He got a gigantic “The Ghost” Martin got a nice $ 1.5 million for this fight. So it is not a shock that he decided to sit inactive with a socket egg.

Martin should have been back to the ring much earlier and fought with a better opponent. It was not such a destructive loss for Frank to sit on the shelf for almost a year and a half.

The fall of Barthelema

Cuban Barthelem has lost two of the last three fights and has not been particularly busy in the last three years, since 2022, she fought only three times. His career was at the congress from the 12-round unanimous decision defeat with the Kiril relic on March 10, 2018.

If it were the main version of Barthelema, Martin would have a real problem on his arms. This is not the case. The ran is approaching 40 and eight years have passed since he defeated a solid warrior, Relics, in the first fight in 2017.

What makes Barthelema’s choice look worse for Martin is that the Funder Fund card vs. Thurman is on the best PPV movie. Although the price has not yet been disclosed, it is expected that in the US it will be $ 59.99 and £ 24.99 in Great Britain for this type of money, Martin should fight a better warrior than Bartheleme.

The combination of martin sitting inactive for 16 months, and then the choice of Barthelema as his opponent makes it look bad. He gives fans the impression that he is not seriously seriously about his career and simply focuses on downloading payments.

Sean Jones has been sanding in the boxing media since 2008 and joined Boxing News 24 In 2011, but reporting around the world in Great Britain, he delves into fights that are meaning-from masters to hungry prospects.

Known for his senseless shots and the presence of the ring, Sean gives fans a severe view, not a polished press release.
