Gracie is trying to pull guard but Andrijasevic has him pressed against the cage.
And that's the end of the fight!
Luka Andrijasevic comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Andrijasevic 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.
