NSB Pick 'em #26 - Juan Francisco Estrada vs Carlos Cuadras, Sep 9

[Madison Boxing]

Estrada gave Roman a tough night, too...

ah didnt know that lol, i dont follow the flyweights at all really so this one is a guess.

Im actually more pumped for this fight than the main event . It's as close to a 50/50 fight as there can be . Both Cuadras and Gallo land good to the Head and body , both have a solid jab and both have elite level experience .
I see Cuadras footwork and hand speed being the deciding factors in what should be a Close exciting fight .

not gonna pretend i know anything about either of these guys, never watched them fight. apparantly cuadras gave gonzalez a hard nights work so i will give him the nod, cuadras close decision

IMO, Estrada gave Gonzalez a tougher fight in Gonzalez's own division. However, Estrada has been inactive lately due to hand issues and that could be a big problem for him.

Close fight, very hard to predict winner.. I think Estrada is a higher caliber fighter so I will go with him in a close split decision

I honestly think it will be a split draw but that wasn't a poll option

BETTING ODDS: On both PaddyPower and Betfair, Estrada and Cuadras are dead even (-110 a piece). On Bet365, Estrada is a very slight favorite (-137.5). No bonus multiplier

You only need to post in this thread to indicate if you'd like to use one of your 2X or 3X multipliers. EG.

If you are using no multiplier (1X), and not picking a draw, just voting in the poll puts you in. I will assume you want 1X unless you post otherwise.

NOTES:
-Draws are worth 120pts

-CLOSE is <=12 pts difference, or equivalent to 116-112 on all three scorecards or closer
WIDE is >12 pts difference

-PM me before the fight starts with a different pick in order to change your pick.

-2X doubles your points and 3X triples your points. Everyone starts with 3 doubles and 2 triples to use throughout the year. If you forget how many you have left, check the leaderboard in the master thread.

Sticky me -MEGA-

Estrada all the way.

To each their own

I wouldn't say I'm nearly as deeply knowledgeable about the history of flyweights as some others, but I think we're at a relatively exciting time for the 115lb division. RG/Cuadras/Estrada/Inoue are all very good fighters who the boxing gods have been fortunate enough to allow to actually fight each other.. lol.

I got Estrada knocking out cuadras in the 10th.
