Holliday throws a big counter combination but Downtown scrambles out of danger and avoids any damage.
Boooooooooooooooooooo!!! God, this has been a terrible round. Come on you two, sort yourselves out!
The fight stays on the outside here - Holliday looks like he's thinking about clinching though.
And that's the end of the fight!
Fatz Downtown comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Downtown 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.
