I would just about give that final round to Zoe Jab.
Well Damron 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 3 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Mauricio Rocha scores the fight 29:28
Judge Edson Gomes scores the fight 29:28
Judge Emerson Jorge scores the fight 29:28
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Poe Damron! |
