Freddy Pendleton and Ras-i Aluja Bramble, known as Livingstone Bramble when he held the World Boxing Assn. lightweight title, battled to a 10-round draw Friday night.

Pendleton, 23, of Miami, was given a 97-95 edge on judge Rocky Castellani’s scorecard, but the other two judges ruled it a draw, 95-all.

Pendleton, whose record stands at 17-15-3 with 8 knockouts, was aggressive throughout the fight, boxing well against the 26-year-old former champion from Hammonton, N.J.
