Sandor Martin lived his dream night and became the World Boxing Association (WBA) super lightweight international champion with a victory over Mexican Jose Felix in his native Barcelona, Spain. 

The Spaniard won a unanimous decision on cards of 100-90, 100-90 and 99-91 to capture the regional title and remain on track for a world title shot. 

The Palau Olímpic Vall d’Hebron had an incredible atmosphere to welcome the local idol, who responded to the fans with a good victory over a tough opponent like Felix. Martin took advantage of his physical strength and technical superiority to manage the fight at will, hurting the visitor in several passages of the fight and ending with a great victory.

The “Arrasandor” achieved the 40th victory of his career, while he has 2 defeats and 13 knockouts. Felix dropped to 39 wins, 6 losses, 1 draw and 30 knockouts.
