And that's the end of the fight! That was a close round. You could make an argument for either fighter but I would give it to Cole Orion. Well Orion 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.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1 round of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision. Judge Ren Mimura scores the fight 10:9 Judge Yuuki Gou scores the fight 10:9 Judge Shigeki Sano scores the fight 10:9
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Cole Orion! |
