Correction on Felipe Torres

Post by scartissue »

I was looking at Felipe Torres' record (Mexican lightweight from the late '60s - early '70s) and his loss to Eliseo Estrada in San Antonio on May 11, 1971 just didn't sit well with me. On May 20th he would be taking on one of the top lightweight contenders in Jimmy Robertson, so a fight a little more than a week apart seemed a little funny and at featherweight, yet. A little research showed that Estrada actually fought and beat a Mexican featherweight named Felipe Lopez on that date, not the very well known Torres. Let me know if you need any corroborating material.
