I think the Arthur win was a little flattering who in all honesty hadn't beat much to win the title, my opinion on Cook is he's European level at best and has his work cut out against a fighter who isn't a superstar in the making but after watching a couple of his fights is just that level above Cook.

But home advantage may well be a factor in a close one.

Martinez a slight favourite? Well fornicate me! I woukld have thought Cook would be the clear favourite.

Martinez has a decent record, but nothing very special, but then than same could be said of Cook.

Martinez can pull this one off, he's not too bad at all.

Martinez is a good operator. Bang a few bob on him for a stoppage win.

Cook will do very well to get through this one. Martinez is the madatory challenger, unbeaten and hungry for the title.

I've never seen him, but people whose judgement I trust tell me is no superstar, but will have enough to beat Cook

Setanta showed him against Santos Benavides on the Calderon-Cazares undercard, he looked pretty useful.
