And that's the end of the fight!
Binzo Binzo comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
I think McThornbody has won this one but let's see what the judges have to say. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Dillan Fox scores the fight 49:46
Judge Elvis Blanc scores the fight 49:46
Judge Ian Loll scores the fight 49:46
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Gristle McThornbody!
Gristle McThornbody seemed lost for words in his post fight interview but he remembered to thank his fans and directed everyone to his website.
