Or Nelson would stop him early or Eusebio would get decision.

Re: Featherweights : Azumah Nelson vs. Eusebio Pedroza
Very close fight, I could see them splitting fights over a trilogy. I view them as pretty much on exactly the same level in terms of legacy, talent, eye-test, ring craft and technique, they're about as closely-matched as two fighters could be IMO. They're close enough I could see each man adapting and changing tactics with some success across two or three fights (if Pedrosa wasn't having success outside I could see him taking it to close quarters, if Nelson wasn't having success boxing I could see him slugging with success)
It would be boxing 101 whatever the outcome

I will pick Eusebio Pedroza in a hard fought close fight. His stamina in Championship rounds, 13th, 14th and 15th will be key. In those rounds, Pedroza excel.

Pedroza was too big for Nelson and too rough, especially in close so he wins by decision clearly,imo.

Nelson was one of the best ever at a higher weight class than Pedroza ever fought at, so I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with the notion that Pedroza was too big.

Nelson beats Pedroza anyday
Re: Featherweights : Azumah Nelson vs. Eusebio Pedroza
Prime vs Prime, Eusebio edges Azumah. A 12 rounder might favor Azumah however.
