During a weekend that showcased Teofimo Lopez, two courageous Latino fighters were prepared to leave a lasting impression. Juan Francisco Estrada, defending his WBC super-flyweight title, faced off against Jesse Rodriguez, a skilled 24-year-old who had previously triumphed over Sunny Edwards, Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, and Carlos Cuadras despite jumping weight divisions.
With a stunning knockout victory that concluded with a powerful strike to the body, Rodriguez finds himself being mentioned alongside renowned fighters such as Terence Crawford, Oleksandr Usyk, Artur Beterbiev, Canelo, and a potential future rival, Naoya Inoue. This may very well be the first time Rodriguez’s name is uttered in the same breath as these esteemed athletes.
