The scores are 120-108, 119-109 and 119-109.
#1 WBO ranks Pacheco, piercing most of the time all night, choosing to avoid damage outside, avoiding powerful shots of McCumby trying to hit him.
McCumby suffered a cut on his forehead due to a second round of head conflict. Cut blood for the rest of the battle. Referee Lawrence Cole, who appeared in the 12th second, said he had suspended McCumby’s layoffs and was examined by a circus doctor. He allowed the battle to continue. It was a weird time to check out the tailor.
Pacheco’s security priority policy
The crowd didn’t like Pacheco’s hit Jerry style fighting style, and they let him know that by booing from round 4 to round 12.
It was Pacheco who was reluctant to fight because McCumby tried to contact him, but he kept retreating three to six feet during the attack. It has a striking similarity to the fighting style that Shakur Stevenson prefers, and it is indeed boring.
This is not the show that Pacheco, the game room publicity, defended him to win against undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez. It’s like William Scull’s fight for Diego.
Diego’s stinging style
“I tried to find my distance to control the fight. All I was worried about was getting the W and preparing for the next game,” Pacheco said after the war. “Of course, he was a powerful fighter. His punches were huge. I saw him trying to seduce me.
“I stayed behind the jab all day. Trevor is a great fighter. That’s why I chose him to test me. We clashed head a few times. I don’t think I’m out there.
“I know there’s still a big fight for me. I want anyone in the top 10. Los Angeles fans should be fighting between me and the top 10 guys.
