WBO/WBA flyweight champion Juan Francisco Estrada says undefeated pound for pound No. 1, WBC king Roman ?Chocolatito? Gonzalez is no big deal.
Estrada who lost to Gonzalez in a light flyweight title bout in 2012 when Estrada had weight problems, told ESPN Deportes that Roman ?is not the big deal that they are saying he is the best pound for pound and all that.?
He insisted Gonzalez ?is not an invincible fighter? and that in a rematch ?things will be different and the public will enjoy very much.?
Referring to the 9th round TKO victory of ?Chocolatito? over former two division world champion Brian Viloria last Sunday, Manila Time, in Madison Square Garden, New York, Estrada said ?honestly it was a good fight but I expected that? although he claimed Viloria ?is not the same when I faced him,? referring to his split decision win in Macau on April 26, 2013 when he won the WBO and WBA titles from Viloria in a good fight where Brian out-boxed Estrada in the first five rounds but paid the price for trying to slug it out in the second half of the bout.
