Australia's Ibrahim Balla has defeated Aboubakr Seddik Lbida on a count-back after their entertaining bantamweight contest ended in a 16-16 draw.
Both men stood toe to toe from the first bell, although it was Lbida whose shots looked the more telling.
Despite that, the judges had Balla in front by just one point at the close of the opening stanza.
Lbida kept his chin up and pressed on in the second round, which ended on level pegging to set up an exciting finish.
The Moroccan fought bravely to level the score after three rounds, but when the decision went to a count-back, it was Balla who scraped through.
