Pelaez panted as he wiped a bloody lip, and a trash can was brought over for Shujaee to vomit into — he hadn't eaten or drank anything since 4 a.m. while observing Ramadan. And it wouldn't be until the final moments of sudden-death overtime that the champion was determined: Pelaez twisted Shujaee to the mat for a 10-7 win at Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro.
