Bros connects with a solid leg kick.
And that's the end of the fight!
Diaz Bros comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Bros has outworked and out performed his opponent in all aspects of the game today. He was simply too good and the decision should be no more than a formality. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Taro Takaoka scores the fight 45:50
Judge Shigeki Fujiwara scores the fight 45:50
Judge Ren Mimura scores the fight 45:50
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Diaz Bros !
A very excited looking Diaz Bros made sure he remembered to thank all the fans both in the arena and on the internet. He said all the coolest people spend all day on MMA websites, which got a big reaction.
