Earlier today, Frank Martin (17-0, 12 KOs) and Artem Harutyunyan (12-0, 7 KOs) made weight for their upcoming WBC title eliminator live on Showtime. Just as boxing centered around the Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis fight last weekend, Martin will have the light right on him, and he will have to deliver if he wants to get those bigger names and/or title shot as early as next year. The odds have shifted in favor of Martin, who oddsmakers have stopping Harutyunyan before the sound of the final bell.
