The Mexican boxer claimed a unanimous decision after ten rounds with scores of 100-90, 98-92 and 97-93. The bout represented an important opportunity for both fighters following their draw earlier this year. This time, Cárdenas (18-0-2) made the necessary adjustments to avoid any controversy, employing intelligent boxing, sharper punch selection, and excellent distance control. From the opening rounds, the Mexican established the pace of the fight, landing precise combinations while preventing Martínez from finding consistency in his attacks. As the contest progressed, the gap between the two became increasingly evident, with Cárdenas controlling the action both offensively and defensively.
