    Nobody here would have said Sonsona will beat him, let alone KO him.
    Said would beat him? Of course not, it was a mismatch on paper. "Shocked" by it?
    Eh...
    IMO Dude always looked like a KO waiting to happen. I remember in one of the original threads introducing him to the forum, most people seeing the videos said he looked mediocre and looked like size was the only thing he had. I shared that viewpoint. If anything, I saw the headline and chuckled, only slightly amused.

      there will be a rematch you'll see, for a minute there I thought it was Gallo Estrada.
      never even seen this guy fight till today.he looks like he had it coming.
      don't know why they call it a filipino vs mexican rivalry. the only rivalry i know of is Puerto rico vs mexico. all the others are fights set up by promoters to make their fighter look good.

        Not even remotely shocked. I have been a boxing fan over 25 years.....since I was knee-high to grasshopper. The only thing that would shock me is if I woke up tomorrow with my head crazy-glued to the carpet and pink elephants dancing on my chest.

          When no.3 ranked loses to no.109.... it's pretty shocking. Even in boxing.

            Not for me. I have watched over eight thousand fights and I have seen everything. Whether top 20 or top 100, anything can happen at anytime.

                  ... After throwing wild wide lefts in the thin air into the 1rst round, Sonsona caught Estrella badly with the first right hook he threw into the second...

                    Just caught it on youtube. He got hit as flush as he could with a huge looping right hook. Sonsona kept throwing telegraphed haymakers and eventually caught Estrella.

                    Too bad the video had no audio, I wanted to hear the gasp one of the crowd.
