Estrada will school the thai even making it look easy.
Watch
Nope.
Roman couldn't do this, who has even more tools than Estrada. Roman would also be favored in a fight with Estrada if he doesn't lose to Sor Rungvisai, and it's important to take that into account - Roman, Estrada, and Cuadras were considered the top dogs far and away in the division til Roman ate back to back losses.
I think Estrada will be able to hit him easily, but I think Sor will walk right through his punches and force a war.

Exactly.
Estrada has one shot : stay the hell away from Minny Pacquiao, box at range, don't try to go to war. He gets slept inside of 7 rounds if he tries to prove a point against this man.

Estrada likes to fight too, it will be interesting to see how it all plays out. If I see Rungvisai walking through those counter straights i'm going to be jumping all over the place lol.

I would not use that logic here. While Chocolatito is very very good:
1) His style of fighting close to his opponent plays into Rungvisai's style
Estrada can fight both inside and outside, I am inclined to believe he will use both to his advantage.
2) He is naturally smaller than Rungvisai, hence his punches did not the same effect when he was fighting at lower weights.
I think Estrada is still smaller then Rungvisai but the disadvantage is not that big. When Estrada fought Roman at 108lbs (?), he dropped down from 112lbs. So he is basically just moving 1 division up while Roman was a champ at 105lbs before finally losing at 115lbs.
Estrada might not hurt Rungvisai but there is a big chance he can frustrate him by hitting inside then darting out before being countered.
I usually root for a fellow southeast asian except when fighting a Filipino. But in this fight, I dont mind who wins. Maybe a Rungvisai win is better because it can easily lead to a unification with Ancajas.

Roman is a complete fighter and an ATG talent, I get what you're trying to say here, but Rungvisai both outworked and out-willed him. It wasn't a result of a style nightmare or a faulty game plan.
I think Estrada will frustrate Rungvisai if he is able to keep it outside, but I am not sure it's going to matter. If Estrada can't make Rungvisai respect him, and I mean really respect him - as in significantly reduce the punch output and become tentative, then I see a war where Rungvisai walks him down all night and we see who's heart and chin will hold up.
