The first round starts out with both men feeling each other out with some leg icks and keeping distance, with Chahid being th first to start throwing his hands. RVR pieces together some solid combinations to combat Chahid's fast hands. Chahid switches things up for most of the end part of the round ending combos with knees. The second roud shows more of the same, with timid combinations making it through. Very technical bout so far.

When the bell rings for the thir round both men have a fire lit from underneath them, as it has been an incredibly close fight so far. Both men decide to go for broke and really let things go with their hands. Chahid has the edge with his hands while Roosmalen is using his hands to set up his kicks. Roosmalen keeps himself planted in the middle of the ring with Chahid being bullied to the ropes for most of the round. Although Roosmalen is controlling the position, the shots Chahid hits with have devious intent.

It looked like the way Robin van Roosmalen cut off the ring could sway the judges, it could easily go to an extension round.

Oh wow, the judges have chosen a winner, and 4-1 score the fight for Robin van Roosmalen!
