Awarded contract despite decision
Martinez defeated Xavier Franklin via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, he was one of five fighters to be awarded an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
While he didn't get the finish as roughly a (-170) betting favorite, Martinez swept the scorecards of all three judges after coming out ahead in the striking department in all three rounds. Martinez was also the more diverse striker, incorporating heavy leg kicks and firing off multiple combinations. A Round 3 superman punch put a stamp on this victory, even if it didn't earn him the finish. The 26-year-old from Mexico will now enter the UFC's bantamweight division with a 11-1-0 professional record, having previously competed under the banner of Combate Global. His only career loss is of the split-decision variety.
