Avigdor Liberman showed his dominance in that final round.
I think Liberman 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 Yves DeLean scores the fight 29:28
Judge William Peck scores the fight 29:28
Judge Robert Douchet scores the fight 29:28
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Avigdor Liberman !
