Thanksgiving report from Sergio Martinez’ training camp, Port Hueneme, CA
“Traditionally, I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, but I will this year with my team. I am very excited about it because turkey is my favorite. I trained in the morning, rested in the afternoon and had dinner with my team last night. Weight is not an issue with me and I had my cook, Cicilio Flores, prepare something special.”
Martinez is training at the World Crown Sports Training Facility. At the dinner table were head trainer Gabriel Sarmiento, assistant trainers Cicilio Flores and Juan Molina.
