Boozer postures up as if he's going to throw some strikes but drops back for an ankle! Sane is in big trouble! He looks ready to tap! But no, he's escaped and dives on top of Boozer, into his guard. #REVB#

And that's the end of the fight!
I would just about give that final round to Justin Sane.
Well Sane has outworked and out performed his opponent in all aspects of the game today. He was simply too good and the decision should be no more than a formality. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.

Ladies and gentlemen, after 3 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Lou da Vinci scores the fight 27:30
Judge Joseph Jones scores the fight 27:30
Judge Reed Andrews scores the fight 27:30

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Justin Sane!
Justin Sane tried to hype himself up post fight but didn't word it too well and it ended up with him sounding like a bit of a tool.
In defeat, Axel Boozer stepped up to the mic, saying 'NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIINNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!'.
