You don’t see that happening cause neither’s gonna fight him anyway. Neither were interested. They’ll just beat him in a fantasy fight and that’s all there is to it

he's good but too bad he lacks quality wins...50/50 vs choco but i think estrada beats him

He lacks quality but quality ducked him. He gets beat in a fantasy fight by both. That’s just it

Nietes ducked the Ioka rematch though. That's the top quality on his resume and he dropped the title instead.

It wasn’t Ioka that he ducked. It was Palicte, a fellow Filipino he didn’t want to rematch. When Ioka won that belt, he was pleading to rematch him but WBO got bitter of his decision for vacating belt prior so he got dumped with no request granted.

Anyway, he had Ioka in his resume. We’re talking about Estrada, Gonzales and SSR when it comes to quality. He was casted out like he never existed.

Estrada would punish him!
