Let's just give Ancajas the benefit of the doubt too because having a sudden exchange of opponent will of course make him struggle or any boxer in the industry as Ancajas himself didn't prepared for Martinez.
We should not point out that Ancajas is not prepared for Martinez where the result didn't not favor the former. Either way, he still prepared since he has an upcoming match. The only difference is he didn't know how Martinez fight but still he prepared. As mentioned by others, Ancajas being not 100% in the fight is because of his struggle to catch the required weight.
We can't conclude that even there's no replacement happened and Ancajas able to push a fight against Kazuto Ioka, he will win on that fight. It's really hard to be at 100% on the day of the fight if the training is just focus on maintaining his weight most of the time.
Ancajas needs to win the rematch really badly and mandatorily in order to get a ticket in fighting Ioka next. If he will lose here, he will surely still struggle if he moved up weight as there are lots of good fighters too at the Bantamweight division that he will face.
Well, I also agree with that motion, we cannot say that Martinez has already won the fight, except in boxing, which is a sport where anything can happen, even if a fighter comes from a failure with another, this is changeable, because a boxer who has lost to another I think it is much more dangerous than one who has been winning, because the one who always wins is sure of the level he has while the other trains very hard so that he can be at the level and surpass him, this is what What I like the most about boxing, however, there are boxers who get it into their heads that they will box with champions and fight with respect and that is where everything fails.
He needs to win here, but if he losses, there's no other way but to move up in weight, though it will not hype him but IMO, that's the right thing to do for him to be comfortable in maintaining his weight. He will have to start his journey in a new division and hopefully we will continue to support him.
Let's say Jerwin Ancajas will lose here, does it really a good decision to just left that division and moved up?
How can he even get good fights at Super Bantamweight if he is struggling with some of the best fighters in Junior Bantamweight?
If he loses, moving up for me is not a good decision. Start from scratch and have a goal to become a champion again at Junior Bantamweight which is his comfort zone at most points of his career. He dominates that division for several years and I'm sure he can repeat it.
But of course, that was just speculation as I believed he will win here in this rematch against Martinez and then finally move up.
Ancajas is surely making a lot of preparations before the fight while the boxing organizers are still giving him another chance to show his skills and confidence. And the fact that winning this title will be his key to move up in division, then losing again should be out in the picture. After all, we have witnessed how Ancajas played in his previous games, he has the gut and skills, and improving his performance in the ring will make him another champion in the making.
Well, here Martinez wants to show that he has not had any kind of luck, but that he is a complete boxer who does not need more than his own strength and technique to get his fights in Victoria, of course Ancajas is a boxer who knows how to what goes, that they have nothing else but to win, honestly, Puma Martinez wants to destroy everyone who gets in his way, but now I have seen a very positive attitude from him, and this is something that gives me a lot confidence to see this fight, because I know that it promises and that it will not disappoint us, for me Ancajas if he wants to show that he is the best he must win this fight.
