Official result: Jose Valenzuela def. Isaac Cruz via split decision (116-112, 113-115, 116-112) to win the WBA junior welterweight championship. A big upset in this one.

Isaac Cruz vs. Jose Valenzuela -- Round 12: It's anyone's guess -- other than the three ringside judges -- what the final scorecards will read. Highly-competitive, closely-fought bout and it will come down to what each judge liked in several tight rounds.

Isaac Cruz vs. Jose Valenzuela -- Round 10-11: Valenzuela may be pulling away on the scorecards. He's been extremely effective after the opening rounds, landing clean punches and using movement to keep Cruz off of him, getting trapped along the ropes far less. There have been many very close rounds throughout, which could sway the judges one direction or the other if we reach the scorecards. Valenzuela was having a very good Round 11 but then had to survive a big Cruz flurry in the final seconds which could, again, sway the judges.
