The middleweight world champion, Sergio “Maravilla” Martínez, will star in his first film that will tell in the cinema the story of mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter Alejandro “Búfalo” Ortiz.He was “pirate of the asphalt”, he was detained, he was reunited with his son Lucas, he became a kickboxing champion, and he even acted in “El Marginal”, where he had an appearance on camera along with the protagonists. And this is only part of his life.
This was told by Martínez in the program La Hora Exacta, which is hosted by Teté Coustarot and Boy Olmi, who increasingly explores his artistic facet (he has been doing stand up for several years), in this case very much in contact with the world of sports.

“Ale’s life is inspirational, and really beautiful,” the world champion began. “He’s a guy who fights, who doesn’t get tired of fighting, who fights, and that’s admirable, and he’s great to be able to convey it. A few years ago, the phone rang, it was Alejandro, and he asked if I wanted to play her and I said: ‘Yes, count on me because I really like acting,'” he replied. With Martínez confirmed to be at the head of the team, this is how he began the process of adapting his experiences to the screen, a project that will arrive soon.

Meanwhile, Búfalo Ortiz also made appearances on television such as Podemos Hablar where he said: “Three years, seven months and 25 days I was inside. You don’t learn anything there. It was the fight with myself. What happens is that we are not as a country to rehabilitate a person. It also goes into what one thinks. If I didn’t talk about what happened to me, no one would have found out because I have no habit. I come from a middle-class family and within the little we had, we always had. We were several brothers. They were things of life itself and I messed with a cousin of mine. I was wrong there.”
