Sor Rungvisai Confident Heading Into Estrada Sequel
On Wednesday, Srisaket Sor Rungvisai and Juan Francisco Estrada would meet another and the press outside of The Forum, in Inglewood, California.
In a rematch of their 2018 battle, Sor Rungvisai looks to retain his WBC and Ring Magazine super flyweight titles against Estrada, who feels the anxiety and anticipation ahead of Friday night.
“I am so happy to be here fighting in Los Angeles again,” Estrada told the press. “I am actually able to be 100% for this fight. Last time I was dealing with injuries but now I am healthy. My trainers did a great job getting me ready for the rematch and I feel ready to win this time. Only two more days, I am anxious. I can’t wait to step on the scale and get that challenge out of the way before Friday night.”
On the other side, Sor Rungvisai feels excited for his return to the United States and DAZN debut.
“I feel great. I feel confident. This is my fourth time fighting in the United States and I hope you all come to watch the show.”
