Date: October 1, 2011

Venue: Caesars in Atlantic City

Pound 4 Pound King and former WBC middleweight champion, Sergio Martinez (47-2-2 26 KO) will get back in the ring to face undefended European champion Darren Barker (23-0, 14 KOs) on Oct, 1st at Caesars Atlantic City, New Jersey. The fight will be aired live on HBO's World Championship Boxing, beginning at 10:00 PM ET/7:00 PM PT.

Atlantic City and boxing are synonymous; the city has been built around names like Tyson, Gatti, and Mayweather. The show will be titled "Noche de 'Maravilla'", which translates to "Marvelous Night" in English, a tribute to Martinez's nickname and the exciting style of fighting all four featured fighters employ in the ring.

The co-feature will be a rematch of one of the most exciting fights of 2008, as NABF and NABA middleweight champion Andy Lee (26-1, 19 KOs) attempts to avenge his only loss against the newest member of the DiBella Entertainment stable, Brian Vera (19-5, 12 KOs).

Sergio "Maravilla" Martinez Vs. Darren Barker Boxing Odds

Martinez, 36, a native of Quilmes, Argentina, and now living in Oxnard, California, is coming off a 2010 that can rival any year any fighter has had in a long time, with both of his spectacular wins taking place at Boardwalk Hall. In April, Martinez dominated the heavily favored Kelly Pavlik over 12 rounds to win the unified middleweight championship. He followed up that performance in November by putting a exclamation point on his rivalry with Paul Williams by knocking Williams out cold in the second round of their rematch of the 2009 Fight of the Year. Despite being lauded by publications far and wide as the 2010 Fighter of the Year. In 2011, Martinez took on the universally recognized 154 lb. champion, and then undefeated, Sergiy Dzinziruk on March 12th. Martinez dropped Dzinziruk, who had never before tasted the canvas as a professional, five times en route to an eighth round stoppage win.

Darren Barker, 29, is the current European champion, and is a two-time European champion overall, as well as a former British and Commonwealth middleweight champion. Barker, defeated Domenica Spada in April to capture the vacant European Boxing Union (EBU) middleweight title. Now, Barker has his sights set on the ultimate prize, the world middleweight championship.

Barker has superb boxing skills and maybe even better than Cotto and Chavez Jr. in regards to talent. Barker can punch as well box and is very, very hard to deal with because of his excellent jab and right hand. He's still largely unknown, however, to U.S boxing fans but after he fights Martinez he will no doubt be on the minds of many fans. Win or lose, Barker is a class fighter and more than a handful for Martinez.
