Sensational performance from @KeyshawnDavis8, who stops Pedraza in rd 6. Only other opponent to stop him was Tank Davis to take his 130 title. #boxing #DavisPedraza
Jose Pedraza in big trouble, bloodied and battered by @KeyshawnDavis8, and the fight is stopped. What a performance by Davis, he took apart a former champion in dominant fashion. Only second time Pedraza has been stopped.
Davis goes on a tear and the referee steps in. Good stoppage. Pedraza was bleeding and, more importantly, just at the mercy of whatever Davis was doing. Light work for Davis tonight.
Keyshawn beating the shit out of Pedraza. Breaking him down through 3. #boxing
