Kim misses the shot to the body.
Kim throws a lazy head kick
and McButticutty counters with a series of strikes. Kim will be more careful next time no doubt.

The referee calls the doctor in to look at Byeongsuk Kim's cut. Oh no, the doctor has called an end to the bout!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:01 of round 5, we have a winner by way of TKO (Cut). Angus McButticutty! Angus McButticutty retains his middleweight title!
