History is on the line for Guatemala! The WBC has officially sanctioned a massive interim title showdown between the undefeated power puncher Lester Martínez and American contender Immanuwel Aleem. Scheduled for March 21, 2026, at the National Orange Show Events Center in San Bernardino, California, this fight will be broadcast live on ProBox TV. With the middleweight division in flux following Terence Crawford’s move and Christian Mbilli’s elevation to full champion, the winner of this bout moves into the mandatory position to face the winner of Mbilli vs. Canelo Alvarez. Lester Martínez (19-0-1, 16 KOs) is coming off a 2025 "Fight of the Year" performance and is more motivated than ever to become the first-ever world champion from Guatemala. Standing in his way is the veteran "Chosen One," Immanuwel Aleem. Who is Immanuwel Aleem? Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, Aleem brings a wealth of experience and a chaotic, high-pressure style to the ring. Record: 22-3-3 (14 KOs) Style: High-energy pressure fighter with sharp counterpunching instincts. Recent Momentum: Coming off a spectacular 9th-round stoppage of Demond Nicholson to claim the WBC FECARBOX title. Can Lester Martínez’s devastating power secure the interim belt, or will Aleem’s veteran savvy and chaotic pressure pull off the upset?
