Money trying to control the action but Stone is working from the bottom.
And that's the end of the fight!
Randy Stone showed his dominance in that final round.
Well I reckon that's a shut out for Stone, 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 Michael Johnstone scores the fight 30:27
Judge Santiago Holmes scores the fight 30:27
Judge Peter Branson scores the fight 30:27
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Randy Stone!
