Comments Thread For: Jose Pedraza, Richard Commey Battle To a Ten Round Split Draw

[paulf]

How did you score the 8th? I thought Commey landed better punches of the few each man did land. But I figure since the round was fought at a slower pace Pedraza was given the round instead.

Potentially the same reason so many gave Pedraza the 10th as well.

Yeah I thought the last three were among the easiest to score.

Clear Commey 8th
Huge Pedraza 9th
Clear Commey 10th

Draw was fair but Pedraza should be frustrated he had a lot left in the tank and decided to not put it into 2nd gear.

I thought Pedrazza won but maybe I’m too tired and didn’t see the times Pedrazza was hurt as some claim. To me it looked like it was Commie that was hurting and close to getting stopped, though he put up a spirited effort. I thought it was a good, hard fought fight by both men.

You didn’t give him the 8th or the 10th??

Thought Pedraza absolutely won the 10th

This wasn't by no means a draw, as a matter of fact Commey is lucky that Pedraza didn't knock him out.
That's Pedraza's fault he usually doesn't press the attack when he has his opponent's on the verge of a knockout.

Nope, can't do it I muted the conversation when they started arguing about the P4P list, it's too ****** for me. I used to not have an opinion about Mark Kriegel but recently the more I hear him speak I realize the less and less he actually knows.

i thought it was just me, but a friend noticed it too: Kriegel seemed to be having trouble speaking last night.

I don't know if he was messed up. having a stroke, or whether his teleprompter was messing up, but it was strange.

Uncomfortable to watch!

I met Richard in 2015 at Emperor's Palace when I did a bit of work as a boxing journalist.

He was very friendly and accommodating, and we did a brief interview and took a few pics. A gentleman. Glad he got good success on the world stage.

That was a great fight! Salute to both warriors! I thought Pedraza won, but very entertaining fight! Do it again in NYC! Put the rematch on the undercard of Lopez Jr. vs. Barboza Jr! If Ryan Garcia looking for a dance partner @ 140, Pedraza would be a great test for him too!

I was a great performance by "The Sniper!" However, you are right, sometimes he settles for those beautiful "one shots" and doesn't throw combinations, which is why he doesn't get the KO! He did beautiful body work, right from the beginning, and it paid off! He just didn't step on the gas earlier! Would love to see Ryan Garcia vs. Jose Pedraza @ 140!
