This Providence, Rhode Island native known as “Big Six” brings to the game a thinking man’s approach to the ring. Whether it is by moving his opponents into counter shots or luring them into traps, Estrada uses his mind rather than sheer brute force to take out his opponents.
Estrada has a solid amateur pedigree as a 3-time United States amateur champion in 2001, 2002, and 2003 as well as a Gold Medalist at the 2003 Pan AM Games. Estrada represented the US in the 2004 Athens games but lost to the man he beat in the Pan Am games to win gold.
Estrada turned pro in December of 2004 and ran up a seven fight winning streak before losing via controversial decision to Tarvis Walker in 2006. Estrada rebounded quickly however and won eight in a row from April 2007 to November 2008, beating Zack Page, Lance Whitaker, Moultrie Witherspoon and Charles Shufford in the process.
In April 2009, Estrada squared off with 2004 Gold medal winner Alexander Povetkin in Dusseldorf, Germany. Despite giving a spirited effort, Estrada dropped a unanimous decision to the heavy favorite.
Jason returned to the ring later that year with an impressive stoppage of Zuri Lawrence before dropping a unanimous decision to rising heavyweight contender Tomasz Adamek earlier this year.
Estrada, a single parent, knows struggle and how to chase a dream. He has never been dropped and never been stopped in a career that has pitted him against some of the very best boxing’s glamour division has to offer.
Now that he has joined the Boxing 360 team, Estrada hopes to make a move yet again in the wide open heavyweight division.
