How to watch Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Jesus Martinez

Fighter history
Rigondeaux ( 20-3) is a 42-year-old veteran that is coming off two straight losses. He lost to Vincent Astrolabio in February 2022. The most recent loss came via unanimous decision and was his second loss via submission. Rigondeaux had won his first 17 career fights before having a no-contest and then suffered his first loss to Vasiliy Lomachenko. Another loss here could signal the end for him, as not many people can continue to fight into their 40s and be successful at a high level.
Martinez (33-17-1) is an experienced fighter as well at 42 years old. The Colombian-born fighter will be looking to win his third fight in a row. He was in the ring twice in December 2022, when he defeated Javier Martinez and Marcelino Morales. He hasn’t taken much time off between his fights, so there won’t be much rust to knock off. However, he may not be the healthiest of fighters heading into this one.
