And that's the end of the fight! That was a close round. You could make an argument for either fighter but I would give it to Jose Rozemblit. I think Moody has won this one but let's see whether the judges agree with me. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Matti Vanhoillinen scores the fight for Dwight Moody! Judge Roosa Järviläinen scores the fight for Dwight Moody! Judge Marco Blurström scores the fight for Dwight Moody!
Dwight Moody wins by unanimous decision! Dwight Moody is the new middleweight champion! Dwight Moody gave a mention to Perkele! in his post fight interview. That will please them (and hopefully generate some sales).

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Montgomery Nagendra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andre Chankin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nagendra comes to the cage accompanied by The Liberty Bell - John Philip Sousa. Chankin has chosen medieval battle as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
