And that's the end of the fight!
Ryu Musashi comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Musashi 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 Chris Downing scores the fight 47:49
Judge Gwen Towbar scores the fight 47:49

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Ryu Musashi!
Ryu Musashi is the new welterweight champion!
In his post fight interview, Ryu Musashi started talking himself up. Luckily his charisma kept the crowd on side and gave him a good reception.
