This fight was overlooked due to more high profile bouts on the night, but it was an important one in terms of finding a challenger for the title lineage at flyweight.

Sosa defeats Segura in war

In a WBC flyweight eliminator between former world champions, Edgar Sosa (49-7, 29 KOs) scored a hard fought twelve round unanimous decision over Giovani Segura (29-3-1, 25 KOs) on Saturday night at the Plaza de Toros Eloy Cavazos in Zitacuaro, Michoacan, Mexico. Sosa got off to a good start, but Segura came on strong in the middle rounds. Segura was deducted a point for a low blow in round nine. Sosa closed the fight very strong to take the fight by scores of 115-112, 116-112, 114-113. Quite a run for Sosa, who beat ex-champ Ulises "Archie" Solis just two months ago. He now has earned the chance to face the WBC flyweight champion Akira Yaegashi.

What chance is there of the winner of Sosa-Yaegashi taking on Estrada?

:happy I love Sosa (no manilow). I'll maintain my opinion that he's a mini, less refined JMM.

Really looking forward to catching this one

If Sosa wins, then I think it would be a pretty easy one to make. A Yaegashi match-up would be more complicated, and I'd be surprised if it were to happen TBH.

Estrada has a tough fight comin up against unbeaten Milan Melindo in Macau.
