This guy challenges Esham Pickering for the European super-bantam title on May 12 at Reading. He's unbeaten in a short career to date and none of the names on his record ring any bells.
Does anyone know ANYTHING about him please?

Only thats he's unbeaten in a short career who has fought a bunch of no-names.

I know. One of his opponents, Yannick Bad, sums up his opponents to date. However, I've since discovered (thanks to a PM from one of our posters; the knowledge on here is scary) that Martin was a long-serving Spanish amateur who boxed in the 1997 world championships.

How the hell did this guy get nominated?! He's knocked over a bunch of bartenders by the looks of it.
Pickering will probably take him apart in short order.
