It wasn’t the all-out war that most expected, but Cosme Rivera and Antonio Pitalua went tooth and nail for the duration of their Telemundo-televised main event Friday evening in Mexico City.

In the end, the action proved to be a stalemate as the battle of former title challengers ended in a split decision draw.

Scores were 115-113 Rivera, 115-114 Pitalua and 114-114 even.

BLAST! Rivera should have gotten this decision from the way it sounds. . . Rivera deserves his moment, damnit. Glad to hear he performed well, and his opponent performed pretty well himself, but I can't believe Rivera didn't get the nod in Mexico!

Rivera should of won, but Pitalua landed his share of punches.

Thing with this being in Mexico City is Pitalua is from there and everyone was cheering and the corrupt ringside doctor tried to stop the fight on a really small cut on Riveras eye.
