Carl Frampton to fight Kiko Martínez for IBF super-bantamweight title
Posted on - June 04 Wednesday, 2014
* Rematch of bout won by Northern Irishman in 2013
* Fight set for Belfast on 6 September
Carl Frampton will fight a rematch with Kiko Martínez in Belfast on 6 September with the IBF super-bantamweight title on the line.
The Northern Irishman saw off Martínez with a ninth-round stoppage in September last year to take the European crown. Martínez has since recovered to win the world belt and will now defend it for a third time.
Frampton earned the shot by winning a title eliminator with Hugo Cázares in April - his 18th win from as many fights.
