Born and raised in New Haven, CT, Crespo is riding a wave of confidence having defeated Jorge Abiague (9-1) for the New England super bantamweight championship last November. Crespo’s professional ledger is a deceptive 6-2-3 con 2 KO’s but he’s unbeaten in his last five, facing two undefeated fighters in the process.

I’ve seen Crespo before. He’s tough and willing to take on anybody which is evident by the fact that he’s facing me rather than a lesser opponent. I’m training like I’m the underdog since this fight is close to his hometown and I’ve got a lot on the line.”

Una considerevole perdente, Oquendo ha superato un atterramento primo turno a cadere Gonzalez il successivo turno in rotta verso una vittoria decisione a maggioranza divertente. La vittoria è stata il più grande della sua carriera e lo mette in posizione per un colpo di titolo mondiale.
Più tardi quella sera, Martinez ha difeso il suo campionato WBO super piuma contro Orlando Salido.

Dopo aver visto i combattimenti, Mi appoggiai allo schienale e si rese conto che potrebbe essere me se data una simile opportunità. E 'veramente mi ha spinto a allenarsi più duramente perché voglio fare Portorico orgoglioso!"
