I would just about give that final round to Tomoe Gozen.
Well Gozen 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 Jack Bonds scores the fight 27:30
Judge Frank Antenori scores the fight 27:30
Judge Percy O'Donnell scores the fight 27:30

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Tomoe Gozen!

A less than humble Tomoe Gozen misjudged his post fight interview somewhat and came across a little too arrogant whilst trying to hype up his own abilities.
