Boooooooooooooooooooo!!! God, this has been a terrible round. Come on you two, sort yourselves out!
Mulroney lands with an overhand left.
And that's the end of the fight!
Muthafucka Jones showed his dominance in that final round.
Well Jones has outscored his opponent in every aspect of the fight today. Only a scarily incompetent judge or two will keep him from a well deserved win... Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.
