One of the best emerging American Heavyweight prospects is the fast rising Charles Martin (17-0-1, 15) who scored his 11th victory inside a year. Sadly for Martin, and the fans in attendance, this was a mismatch as Cuba's Rafael Pedro (25-11-1, 15) was bounced off the canvas twice inside a round before being stopped. Martin is a very promising fighter with some solid wins already but Pedro, who hadn't fought in 2 years, isn't amongst those good victories.
