Draper chopped to the floor by a nice leg kick but he springs right back up before Garvin can pounce on him.
Garvin works Draper's body with a nice hook.
A nice inside leg kick there by Garvin. That's going to slow Draper down.
And that's the end of the fight!
Willie Garvin comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Garvin 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 Marco Blurström scores the fight 41:50
Judge Tarja Halkonen scores the fight 41:50

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Willie Garvin! Willie Garvin retains his light heavyweight title!
