Cinco feinted there with a counter leg kick.
Oooooooooooh, not good. A low kick from Cinco lands where it shouldn't have, right in the... well, you know what he did? He kicked him in the penis. He's injured, injured bad. The referee sends both fighters to their corners and Tres has 5 minutes to recover. He's OK now though... a thumbs up from Tres and we're back underway with a touch of gloves.
Boooooooooooooooooooo!!! God, this has been a terrible round. Come on you two, sort yourselves out!
Tres finds nothing but air with that leg kick attempt.
Cinco looked to counter that last move with a leg kick but didn't pull the trigger.
And that's the end of the fight!
Tuf Tres comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
Well Tres 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.
