Professional Career
Sandor Martín began his professional boxing journey on October 8, 2011. In his very first match, he won with a third-round technical knockout (TKO) against Armen Hovsepyan in his hometown of Barcelona, Spain. A TKO happens when the referee stops the fight because one boxer is unable to continue safely.
After building an impressive record of 34 wins and only 2 losses, Martín got a chance to fight for the European super-lightweight title. The match was against Andrea Scarpa on July 27, 2019. Martín won the title when Scarpa's corner stopped the fight in the ninth round. At that point, Martín was winning on all the judges' scorecards.
Martín successfully defended his European title twice. Then, he faced a huge challenge on October 16, 2021. He fought Mikey Garcia, a famous boxer who had been a world champion in four different weight classes. Even though many people thought Martín would lose, he pulled off a major upset. He won the fight by a majority decision, where two of the three judges scored the fight in his favor.
