    1. Where does Estrada currently rank among all-time great Mexican fighters? Top 12? Top 15? Top 20?

    2. If Estrada beats the winner of Ioka/Franco and a couple other top super flyweights, where would he rate historically at that point?

    Estrada deserves to be in the top ten after everything he has achieved in his career. Estrada has the case for being the best active Mexican fighter in the sport today. He didn't need his dad's reputation to save him from decisions, he didn't need 118-110 cards to save him, he didn't need to inject Mexican beef in his veins to get an extra boost. Five world titles in two weight classes, avenged all his losses and has delivered many amazing fights in his career.

    A true, living Mexican leyenda! :chuck:

    Well i believe he got the decision over Gonzalez in their second fight which i didn't think he deserved with the judges not giving the right guy the win & after watching their fight last night in the end i didn't think either of them won,

    But he is a great fighter & a good guy, always seems humble & i like the way he always comes to fight & doesn't avoid any challenges either.
