Gamrot started well, showing improved hands and hurting Hooker on the feet before looking to grapple, with “The Hangman” defending well and wobbling his Polish foe towards the end of the first. The second was ultra-competitive, with Hooker landing the more impactful shots, but Gamrot holding his own standing while also putting the New Zealander on the canvas. In the third, the two men largely just traded blows, with Gamrot attempting to grapple in spurts, only to have those attacks largely shut down by Hooker.
The judges were tasked with determining the victor, and when the tens and nines were totalled, it was Hooker that came away with his hands held high, earning the nod in what was an outstanding fight between a pair of elite lightweight talents.
