And that's the end of the fight! John Walker showed his dominance in that final round. Well I reckon that's a shut out for Walker, winning every round. Will the judges agree? They are the ones who matter, even if they are often depressingly incompetent. 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 Russell Pearce scores the fight 30:27 Judge Alyssa Summers scores the fight 30:27 Judge Chad Campbell scores the fight 30:27
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... John Walker! John Walker really struggled to get his t-shirt on before his hand was raised. Making sure that MayheM sportswear logo gets some air time is pretty tricky when you're all sweaty.
