Some bone on bone action there as Iron Tyson checks a low kick. Luckily it wasn't a particularly hard one. Spectre slips a straight right by Iron Tyson. A really sloppy takedown attempt there from Spectre.
And that's the end of the fight! That was a close round. You could make an argument for either fighter but I would give it to Serge Spectre. I think Spectre has won this one but let's see what the judges have to say. 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 Percy O'Donnell scores the fight 47:49 Judge Frank Antenori scores the fight 47:48 Judge Jack Bonds scores the fight 48:48
In favor of your winner, by majority decision... Shogun Iron Tyson! Shogun Iron Tyson is the new lightweight champion! Shogun Iron Tyson tried to hype himself up post fight but didn't word it too well and it ended up with him sounding like a bit of a tool.
