    Pedraza has been on the slide for a while and once again he does enough for the judges not to give it to him. That being said, his ghastly ring attire lost him that fight. Dumb tactics too.

    Sometimes I really question his fight IQ lol. This was a winnable fight for him, he threw away the first 3-4 rounds.

    I've questioned it a bunch of times too and tonight was one of them. Someone as talented and skilful as he is should not of lost to some of the fighters he has. Not because they aren't good, but because he's better. Very frustrating fighter to watch sometimes.

    Here's the post I just made in Kirk's, after my last minute switch to Pedraza UD.

    God... stupid ****ing switch, but my last minute doubts were in the right place. If only the boxers themselves had the wherewithal to see the blueprint for victory that I do.:lol: I had a feeling Pedraza wouldn't have much success as an orthodox fighter, quickly switch to southpaw and dominate him from that point on. But no... this dopey ****head Pedraza gets hit in the face for 5 rounds straight before finally switching and having incredible success as a southpaw. Does he not realize he could've won several of the fights he lost by a hair, had he adjusted a round or two earlier? Bald mother****er.:mad: I should become a trainer.:lol:

    Interested to see if he's a weight bully or if he'll carry his power up.

    Should be a good main event, Navarrete is clearly more accomplished but hes used to having a big edge in reach and physicality which he won't have tonight.
    I think he wears Wilson down in the end but it will be a war of attrition for the first couple of rounds

    His power was less than impressive at 126, at 130 it might be nonexistent.

    For **** sake, that "I be like sheesh!" song on the Pizza Hut Melts commercial, I feel like I'm on the verge of an aneurysm every time I hear it.:lol:
