Juan Francisco Estrada beats Roman Gonzalez





Juan Francisco Estrada beats Roman Gonzalez in an all time classic by split decision but controversy on the scorecards


All I can say is wow. That was the best fight I've seen in the 9 or so years I've been watching by a long way. An absolute classic , two pound for pound greats , going at it for 12 rounds with them throwing over 2000 punches between them. If there was an advert for Boxing this would be it.

The fight was a non stop war from the start , both fighters having their moments with most rounds won by the slightest of margins. 'Chocolatitio' seemed to win several of the opening 6 rounds with most people in agreement. He had the most success in my opinion but Estrada was still very busy landing a lot of shots causing the argument of him winning these rounds.

The fight seemed to get better and better as it went on , 2529 punches were thrown ,in this fight , A new super-flyweight record.

The boxing was on another level , with both of the fighters showcasing World class boxing skills and showing why they deserve to be on most peoples Pound for Pound lists.

As the fight entered the later rounds the action did not stop , both fighters still with outrageous output.

Juan Francisco Estrada retains his WBC Flyweight and The Ring Super-flyweight and added the WBA (super) title to his collection.

The scorecards read ,  117-111 Estrada , 113-115 Chocolatito , 115-114 Estrada
