Lightweight contender Frank Martin proved he belonged among the top boxers in the division. He proved this after a dominant performance over Michel Rivera securing a one-sided decision in a 12-round title eliminator. Moreover, he was not shy to call out the top contenders including WBA regular champion Gervonta Davis and undisputed champion Devin Haney.

Martin revealed this after he was asked who he would want to face next and called out Tank and Haney. “We can get Gervonta Davis, We Can get Devin Haney. We can get any of those top guys” he said.

However, the fans weren’t too keen about Martin’s call-outs and gave him a harsh reality check as they reacted to this.
