Shamsudin Mamedsharipov comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Mamedsharipov 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.

Shamsudin Mamedsharipov decided to go for the less than humble approach in his post fight interview, telling everyone how he is going to conquer the world. The crowd seemed to like it when really that sort of approach could have gone either way.
Dave Gunner spoke after the fight, saying 'Im going to win next time'. |
