I think Otaktay has won this one but let's see whether the judges agree with me. 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 Frank Antenori scores the fight 46:49
Judge Percy O'Donnell scores the fight 45:50
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Ahiga Otaktay!
Ahiga Otaktay is the new featherweight champion!
