It was the right call in my opinion. I had no problem giving the fight to Rungvisai by two points. To give the fight to Estrada would have been a bad call. The score card of 117 to 111 for Rungvisai was out of line and a bad score card. The punch counters don't care who wins and they had Rungvisai throwing and landing a lot more power punches. The crowd booed because it was a Mexican crowd and they will always back the Mexican fighter.
It was not only a bad night for Estrada, but also in the past couple weeks, Mexico's other toughest fighters Cuadras and Rios lost to a pair of Rican's, which IMHO settles the Mexico vs Puerto Rico boxing rivalry once and for all.
