    My scorecard looks completely different to yours, but it is that kind of fight where it comes down to who's work do you like

    CBS bouncing on his toes a little better, looks like he's fond his second wind. Jabbing well, landing one twos, and hooks to the body. CBS landing rights here and there. ommy is fading. They hold. CBS sliding in, with sharp thudding jabs.

    oth men bouncing on their toes, McCarthy going in reverse, but landing decent counters. CBS looking a little more cautious. CBS lunges iin, eats a nasty right. He takes it well. CBS swings and misses badly. Tommy clubs him to the back of his head.

    In fairness there has hardly been a clean shot in 6 rounds.

    Round 10: 10-9 Billam-Smith
    Round 11: 10-9 McCarthy
    Round 12: 10-9 Billam-Smith

    They're slugging it out for 3 minutes straight. CBS outworked him but McCarthy landed the best shot of the round. Intense stuff. Another close round. CBS outworked him but McCarthy landed some sneaky counters.

    114-114 EVEN

    Can't argue any score and winner here. It was a close fight with a lot of close and sloppy rounds. Impossible to seperate them in some of them and it comes down to the fact what you like more...

    Round 9 McCarthy 10-9
    Round 10 Billam-Smith 10-9
    Round 11 McCarthy 10-9
    Round 12 Billam-Smith 10-9

    Razor close final round, with both men letting their hands fly, both half dead, but CBS managed to land less, but the heavier more accurate shots to nick it.

    116-112 Billam-Smith

    115-113 or 114-114 is fine as well.
