Comments Thread For: Hearn Keen On Juan Francisco Estrada vs. Kal Yafai Unification

[PotentialToast]

Thinking about it, what are the chances of Estrada v Yafai on December 7 in Saudi? Yafai has Yemeni heritage and there are not that many world class fighters of Arab ancestry. Plus, he has expressed a wish to fight on he Joshua v Ruiz card. Also perhaps helps Estrada is fellow Mexican of Ruiz.

Bro the Saudi government is bombarding Yemen with bombs and *********s as we speak... Bad idea.

It would be a good fight and I reckon Yafai will be competitive, but can't see him beating Estrada. Yafai and Estrada are closely matched on ability alone, but Estrada looks easily the bigger hitter.

Saudi are bombing one side in a civil war in Yemen. I guess it depends which side your on. And Yafai expressed a desire to fight in Saudi in a recent interview (although he did acknowledge him mum knows a bit more about the situation that he does, he's a brummy). For the record, I can't see him beating Estrada.

Kal's had his last 3 fights overseas so is due a homecoming contest. He would definitely be the underdog against JFE so if they both want it so bad, why not just make it?!!

Exactly... I’m starting to question whether Yafai actually wants a big fight or is just content milking the WBA title. He talks about wanting these big fights but his actions suggest otherwise.

Not much of a chance of a victory for him, he'd basically be selling his 0 and his belt.
