Watch Rodriguez vs. Edwards live on DAZN
WBC world flyweight champion Julio Cesar Martinez has made his prediction for Saturday's IBF and WBO unification clash between Jesse "Bam" Rodriguez and Sunny Edwards.
The fight promises to be a thrilling one between two fighters at the peak of their powers with the winner likely to be considered the number one operator at 112lbs.
Martinez will be keeping a close eye on the contest in Arizona with the Mexican hoping to face the winner at some point in 2024.
“If it’s a knockout, it’s Bam’s fight because of his aggressiveness and strength,” Martinez told BoxingScene.
“Now, if it comes down to the judges I believe Edwards will win because of his technique and speed.”
Martinez was also set to fight this coming weekend against Angelino Cordova in Minneapolis. However, this contest was postponed after a visa issue for Martinez meant he was unable to enter the United States.
