And currently, according to BoxRec, Martinez is in third place among all the Ecuadorian boxers. He’s also fought in multiple weight divisions, like lightweight, Super featherweight, and featherweight. But this bout against ‘Zizo’ will be his first ‘Super lightweight’ bout.

Some additional information about Martinez and Almaayouf

Now, out of the two boxers, even though Ronnald Martinez is the fighter with more experience, there is not much information on the boxer. He made his debut in the world of boxing on 27th March 2021, when Martinez won by decision. But his last two fights did not go for him, as one was a draw and the other was a loss.

But Martinez still seems to be hopeful. He is all ready to explore the unknown territory, as this will be the first time for him to step into the squared circle for a Super lightweight contest.

Almaayouf hasn’t had much professional experience yet, but he’s lucky to get trained by his dream professional boxing coach, Buddy McGirt. McGirt is a former World Champion in two different weight classes, and now has taken Ziyad Almaayouf under his wing, to help him walk the same path of success that he did in his time.

In his debut match, ‘Zizo’ definitely showed potential, but would he be able to repeat the same against an Ecuadorian boxer? The results will be out on February 26. Who are you placing your money on for this match?
