Trenson takes a thudding leg kick, right into the meat of the thigh. Horrible takedown attempt by Trenson or perhaps it was just good defense by Tacos, which made it look bad. Tacos is using his height advantage well here, landing a good percentage of his punches. Trenson looks for a takedown but Tacos sprawls well. Tacos scores with a punch to the gut of his opponent. Trenson has a pretty nasty looking mouse under his right eye. Tacos paws at his opponent with the jab and then lunges in with a straight, right on the button. Bersck Trenson has stepped it up - he knows he needs a finish here! Henry Tacos is fighting for a decision here - he's started to take the cautious approach. Tacos fakes low and throws an overhand right that catches Trenson on the side of the head.
And that's the end of the fight! Henry Tacos showed his dominance in that final round. Well I reckon that's a shut out for Tacos, 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.
