Judge Chris Downing scores the fight 30:26
Judge Cecil Peabody scores the fight 30:27

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Mason Capwell!
Mason Capwell really struggled to get his t-shirt on before his hand was raised. Making sure that GREEN!160 logo gets some air time is pretty tricky when you're all sweaty.
