Tutone kept up a high pace in the second despite a depleted gas tank, avoiding the murderous power shots of La'auli to unload his own volume punches and rack up points.

In the third, Tutone was clearly exhausted, letting himself be corralled into the corner by La'auli who dropped him with a liver shot for the 8-count. The judges scored the fight a majority draw and a fourth round was announced.

In the third round, Rowston showed more of the same, peppering La'auli with the jab and angling out to avoid damage. On one of these angle changes, La'auli spun into a brutal backfist which caught Rowston cold, sending him crashing backwards to the canvas unable to answer the 8-count.

Tournament Final: Navajo Stirling def. Nato La'auli - unanimous decision

Stirling varied his shot selection, landing punches and knees off his front kick, blitzing La'auli and forcing him back into the corner to unleash a barrage of punches, dropping him for an 8-count with less than a minute to go in the first.

La'auli seemed wary of Stirling's power in the second, being more tentative with his offense. Stirling stayed composed, using the teep to keep distance and crashing high kicks into the guard, staggering La'auli. The second round was all Stirling but he didn't risk himself going too hard for the finish.

Stirling kept up his varied offense in the third, not letting La'auli get a read on his rhythm. A minute into the round, Stirling landed a hard right hand followed by a right headkick, again causing La'auli to lose a step.
