Teofimo Lopez vs Sandor Martin date: UK start time, undercard, live stream and how to follow The Tak
Teofimo Lopez is set to try and continue his rise in the super lightweight rankings against Sandor Martin tonight.
'The Takeover' had his first fight at 140lbs in August when he disposed of Pedro Campa, and the 25-year-old will be keen to see off Martin and set up a clash with either Josh Taylor or Jack Catterall.
But his opponent is on a great run and has won his last 11 fights, including beating Jose Felix in April.
The Spaniard is also the reigning European super lightweight and will pose a threat to Lopez.
This fight also serves as a WBC junior welterweight title eliminator.

The ten-round title eliminator is scheduled to take place on Saturday, December 10.
The bout will take place at Madison Square Garden in New York, with ring walks set to be around 4am UK time on Sunday morning.
