Bonsai looking for a sweep. Not yet Bonsai, not yet. #REF3#
The referee has stepped in and called for a break in the action. We'll restart on the feet.
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 Sebastian Case.
Well Case has outscored his opponent in every aspect of the fight today. Only a scarily incompetent judge or two will keep him from a well deserved win... 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 Trevor Gratis scores the fight 30:27
Judge William Peck scores the fight 30:29
Judge Dillan Fox scores the fight 30:27
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Sebastian Case!
