Round 2 and 3 continued on the same way with the clinch game of Moss being the difference and just stifling the fight of Dellal as he failed in all of his 21 takedown attempts. However showing true grit and resilience Dellal managed to sustain 106 strikes in the clinch and still take it all the way to the end. But in the end the judges saw it as the one sided contest it was. Winner, by unanimous decision... Paul Moss and he goes to 8-2.
