This content is protected At least Ioka is keeping the NYE tradition intact, albeit against a fairly limited opponent. This will be Ioka's 25th title fight. The boxer with the sixth most title fights, with number five being Mayweather/Pacquiao at 26 title fights, number four Joe Louis at 27, number three being De La Hoya/Klitschko with 29 , number two Omar Narvaez 31. and finally the number one spot being Chavez with 37 title fights.
Hey man, at least Ioka is keeping active. He is always fun to watch and has consistently fought top notch foes, so he deserves an easier touch. Plus he will probably face Estrada next year in the States.
They couldn't agree on the money. Estrada wanted too much mulla, the same sum like the Chocolatito fight - 2 million and obviously team Ioka couldn't give him that, and the fight fell apart for this year. However... It still could happen next year in America. Just sucks that Estrada didn't fight at all this year.
Estrada's a bottle job. He didn't want none of that Sakai smoke. Chicken & duck sauce. He tucked tail and ran for the hills.
Dammit. I was looking forward to the Estrada fight, that was going to be a war. Hopefully we get it next year.
Ah man I didn’t even hear about the Estrada fight breaking down! Bummer but yeah, he’s keeping the NYE tradition and that’s awesome!
