Jamey Mills has stepped it up - he knows he needs a finish here! The fans in attendance giving it up for the two fighters, who have really let it all hang out in the last minute or so! Ouch! a nice leg kick from McIntyre, right into the meat.
And that's the end of the fight! I would just about give that final round to Chuck McIntyre. I think McIntyre 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 47:48 Judge Arvi Lind scores the fight 46:49 Judge Anni Minnemäki scores the fight 45:50
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Chuck McIntyre! Our winner, Chuck McIntyre, made sure he spent some time buttering up the crowd during his post fight interview, which will no doubt bring him a few more fans.
