Shawn Estrada Interview
By William Trillo
This week in Sante Fe Springs the undefeated Super
Middleweight Shawn Estrada (10-0,9 KO’s) was putting some
finishing touches on his training camp routine as he
prepares to take on Jon Schmidt next week on a very fine
card at Pechanga Resort and Casino. With the help of another
fine 168 pounder, Librado Andrade, it looks like Estrada is
ready to keep his winning streak alive.
We spoke to Shawn after his workout:
P4P: Shawn, the fight is January 28th and you are on a
great card!
Shawn Estrada: Yeah, I am on the Cris Arreola card, and
you got Mike Dallas vs. Josesito Lopez and John John Molina
on the card too. We are all with the same promoter Goossen
Tutor, and I can tell you I am ready for a big night. I am
happy, I have not fought at home in a while and this is my
back yard, so to speak. I am very excited. This is my
territory and 2011 is my year!
P4P: You have the good fortune of having Librado Andrade
working out at the same gymn as you so it’s only a natural
for you guys to hook up with some sparring, tell me about
that.
SE: It’s great and I am thrilled to have a great guy
like this working with me. Librado is the # 2 ranked Super
Middle in the WBC and he has the best chin in boxing,
getting the chance to work with a fighter like this can only
help my career to improve.
P4P: After sparring with a guy like Librado, who has
seen the best in the division, it must make it seem easy
once you face your opponent.
SE: Yes, the work that I put in with Librado is awesome
and without compare, you just cant believe how much you can
learn from a guy like this.
P4P: What can fans expect to see from you next week?
SE: I am ready to go and I want to show more of my
skills. My fights have ended quickly lately, I am looking to
get some good work in next week to show my fans I am the
total package. It’s only going to get better for me this
year and I plan on conquering, like David & Goliath, it’s my
year.
