Comments: After a whistle these two bump, drop the gloves, and grab on. They both take a second to get their rights loose and start chucking some decent shots at one another. Pederson stumbles after getting pushed into the back of the net, rights himself, and the two grab on again. Pederson throws a clubbing left letting Rivet get loose to throw some quality rights in-tight. This forces Pederson to put Rivet in a headlock momentarily, although Rivet still is landing some rights. Pederson loses his grip and Rivet drills him with some good rights, but he responds with a few tired rights of his own that nevertheless land. Now exhausted, Rivet throws some wild rights that catch Pederson, sending him to a knee. He gets back up again and they throw a few more before the linesmen break up the long scrap.
