After Bam Rodriguez, 19-0 (12) of San Antonio, dismantled Sunny Edwards back in December 16th to become the unified Flyweight champion, he seemed eager and set on fighting legendary, pound-for-pound great and future Hall Of Famer Juan Francisco Estrada. That fight is now under negotiations and appears likely to happen according to inside sources. Rodriguez is expecting his first child, a daughter, in April, and the fight looks to be targeted for the summer, likely in July. No official date or location has been mentioned. Estrada, of Mexico, sports a 44-3 (28) record. He last fought 14 months ago and won the vacant WBC Super Flyweight by narrowly outpointing the legendary Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez. Estrada was criticized back in 2022 for apparently ducking Bam's older brother Joshua Franco after Golden Boy had won the purse bid and Estrada opted to vacate his WBA belt instead of squaring off with Franco and opting for largely unknown Argi Cortes. Following the Cortes fight, Estrada followed up and outpointed Chocolatito to win the WBC belt. That was ironically vacated by the San Antonian when he moved down to 112 pounds. Rodriguez will look to recapture the belt he vacated that was then won by the man who openly ducked his brother.
