Sims digs a right hand into Panzram's ribs. Those have got to be taking their toll on Panzram's gas tank. Panzram goes for a body shot but it's blocked.
And that's the end of the fight! I would just about give that final round to Carl Panzram. I think Panzram has won this one but let's see whether the judges agree with me. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.
