Monte Cox, manager for former UFC fighter Terry Martin, confirmed to FiveOuncesOfPain.com today that Martin won his professional boxing debut this past weekend in Villa Park, Illinois against Ricardo Upchurch via TKO at forty seconds into the first round.
Martin decided to try his hand at professional boxing in order to stay active before his May 17 fight with David Loiseau at Combat Fighting Championships in England, according to a report from our friends at Bloody Elbow.
Not 6 months ago people were talking about this guy being a contender and fighting Silva, now he is out of the UFC and fighting for CFC against Loiseau? Talk about a fall from grace, why did the UFC release him?
ps. Adam, I still have not received my Frank Mir contest stuff. I think its safe to say that its not coming, nothing takes 4 months. Who ever f*&^%d that up, thank you.
well.. [if he was released, because i don't know if that's official and what not] it was because he lost two striaght.. Leben and Eastman.. which i personally find ridiculous seeing as right before the 2 fight stint.. he took out GREAT competitors in Salaverry and Rivera in quick fashion.. idk.. if he was released it was a bad move.. but.. GOOOO LOISEAUUUUU!!!
