Colombian Yuberjen Martinez will make his professional debut on July 29, when he faces Venezuelan Jeison Hernandez at the Sugar Baby Rojas Coliseum in Barranquilla, Colombia.
Martinez is one of the most talented fighters of the South American country and was an Olympic medalist in the Minimweight category at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.
His first professional bout will be at flyweight (112 pounds) and he will face a fighter of some experience, with whom he will test himself in his new challenge in professional boxing.
The 30-year-old fighter is strong, has good technique and an impressive physical condition. He will have to adapt to a new style in the pay-per-view boxing world but the boxing world is anxious to see what he is capable of.
