LAS VEGAS – Within a few minutes of their 160-pound catchweight affair, Estevan Payan found a way to avoid the ground game of former state high-school wrestling champion Alonzo Martinez.
He simply wore Martinez down with punches and made him hesitant to close the distance in a lopsided unanimous-decision loss.
The preliminary-card fight kicked off “Strikeforce: Rockhold vs. Jardine” and aired on Showtime Extreme.
