In response to rough diamonds thread who wins this all Mexican affair. I think Roman is a class above and knocks out Estrada mid rounds.
Roman wins a decision. Both brilliant technicians, though I think Roman is slightly more effective and has a higher ring IQ. Estrada is bigger and has superior durability, so he should make it a firefight if he can.
Bump. This would have been a great, high level chess match with great exchanges. Estrada was the better offensive fighter who was more willing to trade while Roman had the quicker feet and better defense. I might have to pick Estrada slightly to win in a close fight.
Anyone in close contest. Great idea with that match... I would peak Roman because he beat bigger super fly's in Watanabe, Baby Rojas and did it convicingly. Maybe he had some physical advantages over Estrada and fight in super fly more comfortable for him. (need to compare height and reach). Estrada is excellent technician though...
