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.
