Sackett working for a triangle but Savitaipale defends it easily.

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 Atte Savitaipale.
I think Savitaipale 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 Shirou Masuda scores the fight 49:46
Judge Yukihiro Shimada scores the fight 49:46
Judge Shigeki Fujiwara scores the fight 49:46

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Atte Savitaipale!

Atte Savitaipale retains his lightweight title!
A relieved looking Atte Savitaipale thanked the fans for their support and gave the usual line about them being amazing. They seemed to believe that he actually meant it.
