And that's the end of the fight!
I would just about give that final round to David Coppfield.
Well Coppfield has outworked and out performed his opponent in all aspects of the game today. He was simply too good and the decision should be no more than a formality. 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 Jack Bonds scores the fight for David Coppfield!
Judge Frank Antenori scores the fight for David Coppfield!
Judge Don Winkell scores the fight for David Coppfield!
David Coppfield wins by unanimous decision!
