From the opening bell Martin displayed high boxing IQ and showcased the preparation his team made for this fight. Martin followed his corners instructions and stuck to his game-plan of out boxing Mielnicki.
Although being 5 inches shorter, Martin was able to use his jab to maneuver his way into range to deliver hooks and combinations that bloodied his opponent early on in the fight.
James Martin impressed judges enough to win a close fight by majority decision, handing Vito Mielnicki Jr. his first professional loss. On Saturday July 21, 2021, Martin and Mielnicki Jr. meet again on PBC on FOX for a rematch of two prospects looking to prove themselves in the division.
