    And elbow attack, and bollock attack, and head-butt attack. It's just a lethal combination, Arkid has some up with.

    Nelson gave Sanchez hell for most of the fight. Though I don't see Pedroza stopping Nelson, I do see him not having the problems Sanchez had with him. Especially at that point in Nelson's career having only 13 pro fights.

    I'm not so sure. One might be able to draw a parallel between Nelson and another strong pressure fighter who was well-trained yet relatively inexperienced, Rocky Lockridge. He gave Pedroza a world of hell the first time.

    Very true and a excellent point. However Pedroza fought Lockridge twice, the 2nd fight Lockridge had much more experience yet Pedroza handled him easier. which tells me Pedroza probably didn't take Lockridge seriously the 1st time.
    Lockridge wasn't as good as Nelson though and your point is something to think about. I forgot Pedroza fought Lockridge to be honest.

    Pedroza wins a close, controversial decision over 15. Cant see this fight being for 12.
