That was a close round. You could make an argument for either fighter but I would give it to Jeremy Pettis.
Well Pettis 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.
