Campbell Hatton is preparing for his fourth professional fight
Hatton announced his opponent change on Monday as he prepares for his fourth professional bout.
Late opponent changes in boxing are common, especially early on. This shouldn't be a problem to the future Brit.
Hatton is widely considered one of the most talented boxers in the world and has a huge name to live up after his father's remarkable career.
The 42-year old held multiple belts in different weight classes and is still one of the most loved fighters in British boxing's history.
Young Hatton paid off his professional debts in March. He currently has a record of 3-0 and many expect him to reach 4-0 this Saturday.
Martinez, Martinez is 29 years old and has never fought in Spain. Few will support Martinez to improve his woeful record of 2-4 pro fights.

After that, welterweights Florian Marcu and Maxim Prodan take on Martinez.
Callum Smith, who lost to Canelo alvarez in December, will attempt to win against Lenin Castillo again.
The precursor to Joshua and Uysk's main event is Lawrence Okolie’s clash with Dilan Prasovic for the cruiserweight WBO title.
