Rodriguez outpoints Augustama
Light heavyweight Edwin Rodriguez (, 16 KOs) of Worcester, Massachusetts, rolled to a near-shutout decision against Azea Augustama (, 9 KOs) of Hollywood, Florida, winning on two scorecards and on the third.
Rodriguez was returning from the worst performance of his career last November, when he failed to make the pound super middleweight limit for a world title shot against Andre Ward and then lost badly by lopsided decision the next night.
