Fernando Martinez Analysis: Looking to clear doubts around the fixture

The two fighters first faced off almost 5 months ago, where Martinez claimed a disputed unanimous decision victory, successfully defending his IBF title while also capturing Ioka’s WBA title. However, the IBF later stripped Martinez of his title for agreeing to this rematch, so he currently holds only the WBA title. At 33 years old, Martinez is a lively fighter with an unbeaten record of 17 wins, including 9 by knockout. He turned pro around 8 years ago and has fought for a total of 115 rounds. His knockout ratio stands at 56.3%, showing he has solid power, but he has gone the full distance in four of his last six bouts.

  • Although he is only 5 feet 2 inches tall with a reach of 64 inches, he brings a lot of energy to the ring.
  • However, he will be at a height disadvantage of 2.5 inches against Ioka.

 

Kazuto Ioka Analysis: Feeling confident at home

Ioka claimed the WBA Title by defeating Joshua Franco through a unanimous decision in their rematch in June 2023. This victory came after their previous match ended in a controversial draw, which allowed Ioka to keep his WBO Belt two years ago. In the rematch, Ioka was the only fighter eligible to win the WBA title since Franco weighed in over the limit, leaving the belt vacant.

  • Standing just over 5 feet 4 inches tall with a reach of 64.5 inches.
  • Ioka is recognized as one of Japan’s top boxers, although he doesn’t have the same level of fame outside Asia as other notable fighters like Naoya Inoue and Junto Nakatani.

 

Ioka has been incredible during rematches, and our boxing predictions suggest this will continue this time around.
