Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Keyser Soze (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dre Tarver (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Keyser Soze had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.3lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Keyser Soze could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Dre Tarver's chin.

Street trying to control but Like A Bomb is having none of it.
And that's the end of the fight!
Michael Street comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
I've got Street 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.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Lou da Vinci scores the fight 27:30
Judge Joseph Jones scores the fight 27:30
Judge Bruno Lombardi scores the fight 27:30
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Michael Street!
