The Juan Francisco Estrada vs. Jesse 'Bam' Rodriguez fight is being viewed as a classic clash between a battle-tested veteran and a rising star. It'll witness Estrada put his WBC and The Ring super flyweight/junior bantamweight (115-pound) titles on the line against Rodriguez.
The 34-year-old Estrada's most recent fight was a trilogy matchup against Roman Gonzalez in December 2022. Beating 'Chocolatito' via majority decision, Mexico's Estrada retained The Ring super flyweight title and captured the vacant WBC super flyweight title.
On the other hand, America's Jesse 'Bam' Rodriguez is fresh off a ninth-round stoppage victory against Sunny Edwards in December 2023. 'Bam' thereby retained the WBO flyweight title and captured the IBF flyweight title. Rodriguez later relinquished the WBO and IBF flyweight belts.
