In a WBO super flyweight world title eliminator, Aston Palicte (25-2-1, 21 KOs) scored a second-round KO over previously unbeaten Jose Martinez (20-1-2, 13 KOs) on Thursday night at Viejas Casino and Resort in Alpine, California.

Palicte after the bout called out Donnie Nietes, the current WBO super flyweight world champion, whom he fought to a draw last year.

Martinez was down twice, with the second one being the telling blow.
