And that's the end of the fight!
Brad Charyak comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Charyak 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.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge John Roberts scores the fight 45:49
Judge Dean Styles scores the fight 45:49
Judge Eddie Farnsworth scores the fight 45:49
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Brad Charyak! Brad Charyak retains his light heavyweight title!
