I've got Sitsongrit 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 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Sosuke Kotani scores the fight 45:50
Judge Shigeki Sano scores the fight 45:50
Judge Hirohito Nitta scores the fight 45:50
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Petsuwan Sitsongrit!
Petsuwan Sitsongrit is the new featherweight champion!
