2004 U.S. Olympian Vanes Martirosyan (30-0 19KOs) maintained his
undefeated record with a gritty and exciting win over the tough
Mexican veteran Saul Roman (34-9 29 Kos). Vanes was able to overcome a
first round knock down, a bloodied nosed and a determined Saul Roman
to drop the Mexican in the 7th and later in the round obtain a TKO
victory.
Early in the fight things were not looking good for the Armenian
fighter, as he would be dropped in the very first round of the fight.
The second would look no better for Martirosyan as Roman would
continue to get the best of exchanges and bloody Vanes' nose.
Martirosyan would see some success in the 4th and 5th, but Roman would
come back in the 6th to once again cease control of the fight. Looking
as if the fight was slipping from him, Vanes would muster up some
powerful combinations in the 7th, one of which would send Roman to the
ground. Vanes would cease the moment and continue his attack prompting
the referee to put a halt to the action. The official time of the
stoppage was 2:58 of the 7th round.
It was a gritty and determined performance for the the ex Olimpian who
would not only continue to maintain his unblemished record, but would
also pickup the WBC junior middleweight silver title. With the win
Martirosyan will must likely look to a fight with the regular WBC
junior middleweight Saul `Canelo' Alvarez.
