Fans trooped to the comments section to give both athletes their flowers:

"Great fight, looks like Freddie's got the grit, aggression, and composure of his brother. Looks like he just needs to get some confidence and experience, throw more combos and keep tighter on his defense."
"It was a great fight, I was genuinely rooting for both of them. But damn, Jordan really showcased restraint and technique. Freddie appeared to get frustrated in the second round but pulled himself together and had a phenomenal third round. Such great young talent, can't wait to see either one of their next fights. Big respect to both of these warriors 💯💯"

"If I hadn't seen the third round I would seriously doubt Haggerty. He got outclassed in boxing for the first two rounds, lagged behind heavily in kick volume AND technique and couldn't profit off the clinching he initiated himself. But the aggression and skill he displayed in that all or nothing last round and the fact that the guy is only 20 really give me hope. Great job by Estupinan."
