David Martinez , one of Mexico’s best talents today, is one step closer to achieving his ultimate dream. The 25-year-old bantamweight has parted ways with his long-time promotion, Combate Global, where he was a dominant champion, and is looking for a new home, specifically a spot on the UFC roster. Martinez (10-1) terminated his contract with the promotion last weekend, and his team has already begun a search for an opportunity in the octagon. “My people are looking at that possibility, and they’re looking to see if they can get me a UFC contract – which is where I want to go,” Martinez told MMA Junkie in Spanish . “But as of now, there’s nothing signed.” Martinez is on a six-fight winning streak, with five of those wins coming by stoppage. That run includes a TKO win over former UFC fighter Francisco Rivera.
