Sergio Martinez vs. Matthew Macklin: Martinez open workout in New York

As March 17th soon approaches, fight week festivities are underway in New York for the bout between the true middleweight champion of the world, Sergio Martinez and tough English/Irish contender Matthew Macklin. As weird as it may sound Martinez held a small open workout in a sporting goods store..yea we were thinking the same thing. It drives us nuts that Martinez is not headlining PPV’s right now but that is a subject left to be talked about with his promoter Lou Dibella.

Anywho, customers at Modell’s Sporting Goods who were shopping for a fresh new grill or some fancy new running shoes got a huge surprise as Martinez and trainer Pablo Sarmiento worked on the mitts for a good while. Check out the footage we shot and watch yourself grin a bit in laughter as the whole concept of holding a workout inside a retail sporting goods store is kind out there in our opinion.
