Basilicus misses with an attempted mid kick.
And that's the end of the fight!
Kosuke Soseki comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Soseki 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.
