I would just about give that final round to Ricky Icky.
Well Wein has outscored his opponent in every aspect of the fight today. Only a scarily incompetent judge or two will keep him from a well deserved win... 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 Percy O'Donnell scores the fight 48:48
Judge Frank Antenori scores the fight 48:47
Judge Don Winkell scores the fight 50:46
In favor of your winner, by majority decision... Wilder Wein!
Wilder Wein retains his welterweight title!
During a confident post fight interview, Wilder Wein thanked all his fans. He seemed very genuine when describing how motivated his fans keep him.
