Estrada edges Chocolatito by split decision for unification
March 14, 2021 GMT
DALLAS (AP) Juan Francisco Estrada beat Román “Chocolatito” González by split decision in a thrilling title unification fight Saturday night, defending his WBC super flyweight belt and claiming González’s WBA 115-pound belt.
Estrada (42-3) avenged his loss to González in November 2012 by triumphing on two judges’ scorecards in a back-and-forth rematch. Estrada hung on despite a phenomenal finish in the 12th round by González (50-3), who buckled Estrada’s knees with a combination.
Judge David Sutherland scored it 115-113 for Estrada, and Carlos Sucre favored Estrada 117-111. Judge Jesse Reyes scored the bout 115-113 for González.
