Roman Gonzalez, one of the best fighters in the generation.

too bad inoue ducked prime roman gonzalez. would have been a great fight at 112 or even 115.

Not sure if Chocolatito is ready for this fight. I think he's back too soon from his layoff. He should take one more fight before tackling Estrada. He looked good in his last fight, but there were some shaky moments.

He has a fight lined up in about 2 weeks before the Estrada fight though....

I thought that Carlos Cuadras was supposed to fight Estrada next?
Anyone know about this ???

He is, the article states "provided both of them come away with their hands up in their respective fights on October 23 in Mexico City." They both have a fight on the same night against other opponents and if they both win then they fight each other. If One of them loses and most likely if it is Roman then the fight is off.

Estrada-Cuadras is next and the winner faces Roman next year.

According to the article. "provided both of them come away with their hands up in their respective fights on October 23 in Mexico City."

Not sure Cuadras gets a shot at Roman. I think Roman is looking for Estrada and the paycheck that comes with that.

Yea.. estrada and Roman are practically getting tuneup fights before facing each other.

I would say Roman is getting a tune up fight more than Estrada but my point was that you said the winner of the Estrada-Cuadras fight gets to fight Roman which is not true at least according to the article and what Roman has said.

Roman and Estrada will fight if they both win their next fight which is in 2 weeks. If one of them loses then I assume Roman loses interest or the general buzz of the fight does since this all hangs on Roman being relevant again.
