Calm before the storm… as Estrada and Rodr\u00edguez go ashen face to face in Phoenix<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Juan Francisco Estrada and Jesse Rodr\u00edguez stood face to face with Jesse Rodriguez at the ceremonial first pitch at Chase Field in Phoenix, before the Arizona Diamondbacks’ home game against the Minnesota Twins.<\/p>\n

Estrada (44-3, 28 KO’s) and Rodr\u00edguez (19-0, 12 KO’s) will clash at the Footprint Center in Arizona in a long-awaited thriller this Saturday, June 29, for the super flyweight title of the World Boxing Council, which holds \u201cGallo” Estrada.<\/p>\n

Estrada is finally back in action, after an absence from the ring for more than a year and a half due to promotional problems. In his last fight, Estrada won the Green and Gold Belt, defeating Rom\u00e1n ‘Chocolatito’ Gonz\u00e1lez in a third war.<\/p>\n

American of Mexican descent Rodriguez longs to and yeans after reconquering the WBC super flyweight title and he`s still just 24 years old. ‘Bam’ arrives after unifying the WBO and IBF titles in the flyweight division by overwhelming Sunny Edwards in December of last year.<\/p>\n
