That brings a close to the live coverage of Battleground Asia. Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
...
...
Vijender Singh is the King of Asia and is now the holder of two belts!
...
The winner of the main event is Vijender Singh by unanimous decision. The three judges have the scores 96-93 95-94 95-94.
...
The end of 10 rounds. It is now up to the judges. Definitely, one of Vijender's toughest fights till date.
...
Looks like another low blow from Zulpikar. 
...
Zulpikar is still the more aggressive of the two. Vijender is struggling here. He needs a magic punch here! Maybe, he just needs to hold on and the judges will do the rest!
...
We are in for the final round that will decide the winner of tonight's main event!
...
Three rights from Vijender all on target in the ninth round here. But blood is coming out from his nose. He is hurt.
...
Vijender goes down again. Zulpikar hits another low blow that has hurt the Indian. No complaints from Vijender.
...
We have an intense match here with both boxers going toe to toe. Penultimate round coming up.
...
Both are tiring out now, but Vijender, in particular, seems to be gasping for breath more.
...
Vijender snucks in a right hook but Zulpikar doesn't seem too worried with that.
...
Another too-close-to-call round! Three more to go.
...
Vijender is attempting a few things here but that accuracy, that precision seems to be missing.
...
That's the end of round six. Nervous moments for Vijender. Can he hold on?
...
For a minute there, it looked like Vijender went down after Zulpikar connects one. The fight continues.
...
Zulpikar goes on full attack mode but Vijender is doing well to evade his big lefts. 
...
Yet another low blow from Zulpikar. He is sent back to the neutral corner by the referee. Points deducted this time.
...
...
Very, very close to call at the midway stage. Could be anyone's fight.
...
Vijender lands a barrage of punches but Zulpikar comes back with a couple of solid hits. 
...
And, Vijender takes round four! With ease!
...
Once again there is a low blow from Zulpikar. No point is deducted as of now, but the Chinese is walking on thin waters here.
...
This time, Zulpikar takes a tumble. Meanwhile, it looks like Vijender has a slight cut under his left eye.
