Very entertaining fight, cut and thrust all the way to the last minute.
I thought that the fight could have been won in the last round however even this round had moments from both fighters. Perhaps a more realstic outcome would have been a draw. They both showed outstanding stamina. The crowd certainly got their money’s worth.
