And that's the end of the fight! Lionel Lindsay comfortably won the final round on my scorecard. I think Jackson 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 3 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision. Judge Chris Downing scores the fight 29:28 Judge Tiny Johnson scores the fight 29:28 Judge Cecil Peabody scores the fight 29:28
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Quinton Jackson! Quinton Jackson bigged himself up after the win. The crowd seemed to love it.
