And that's the end of the fight!
I would just about give that final round to Olympia Unchained.
I think Unchained has won this one but let's see whether the judges agree with me. 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 Timothy Bukovac scores the fight 45:50
Judge Percy O'Donnell scores the fight 45:50
Judge Don Winkell scores the fight 47:48
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Olympia Unchained!
Olympia Unchained is the new lightweight champion!
After the fight, Olympia Unchained was humble in paying tribute to his opponent but made it clear he wants to go on to bigger and better things. It seemed to go down well with the crowd who cheered him loudly.
