Judge Chris Saunders scores the fight 48:47
Judge Roger Salmon scores the fight 48:48
Judge Paul Gruel scores the fight 46:49

The fight is ruled a draw!

Eduardo Corassa retains his title. It's always disappointing when a championship fight ends as a draw but that's what happens when you leave the fight in the judges hands!
