Haislan Garcia comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
I've got Garcia winning every round here. Surely the decision will go his way and he'll pick up a well deserved decision victory. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Haislan Garcia!
