A low kick from Sementtikeuhko misses
and Diamond counters with a leg kick that reverborates around the arena.

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 Jason Diamond.
Well I reckon that's a shut out for Diamond, 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.
