And that's the end of the fight!
I would just about give that final round to Dante Esposito .
Well The Human 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 Saam Ante scores the fight 49:46
Judge Albert Achterberg scores the fight 50:45
Judge Nard Betker scores the fight 50:45
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Finn The Human!
Finn The Human retains his lightweight title!
Finn The Human bigged himself up after the win. The crowd seemed to love it.
