Danger wants to control but Linelli is keeping him busy. Linelli is looking for a sweep. Danger throwing strikes but missing, from side control. Danger wants to work for a kimura but he's foiled early by Linelli, who protects the arm well. Linelli tries to improve position but can't. Linelli manages to get back to half guard. Linelli is looking to regain full guard. Not this time though. Danger thumps the canvas. Not on purpose obviously - he just missed Linelli's head.
And that's the end of the fight! I would just about give that final round to Sjonny Danger. I think Linelli has won this one but let's see what the judges have to say. 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 Robert Twigg scores the fight 29:27 Judge George Francis scores the fight 29:27 Judge Daniel Franklin scores the fight 29:27
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Stu Linelli!
