He was simply too good and the decision should be no more than a formality. 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 Luis Engracia scores the fight 48:46 Judge Seu Braga scores the fight 47:47 Judge Leandro Rodrigues scores the fight 47:48
The fight is ruled a draw! Puck Heidegger retains his title. It's always disappointing when a championship fight ends as a draw but that's what happens when you leave the fight in the judges hands!
