Round 2:
Wilnis tags Barrett again early on and Barrett is fishdance-runing all around the ring. Wilnis catches Barrett and he goes down again. Barrett barely beats the count. Wilnis is hunting while Barrett holds on for dear life, surviving the round.

Round 3:
Barrett coming back strong, catching a lot of Wilnis' kicks while throwing kneew, but they mostly hit Wilnis' gloves. Both guys connect during a short punch exchange. Round ends.
Wilnis has got this. Very impressive performance from Wilnis as I had this fight going completely the other way around.

Wilnis wins by Unanimous Decision 29-26. Good sportsmanship from Barrett.
Ironic that a guy who was critical of the Dutch style and mentioned the lack of head movement in it was the one to get hit in the head a lot by a Dutch style fighter.
I still think Barrett is one of few very talented US kickboxers, but Wilnis sure had his number today.

Round 1:
Great round of both fighters standing in the middle, trading combinations. Van Roosmalen scoring more. This round resembles their last fight.

Round 2:
Another great round of trading combinations. Again, van Roosmalen scores more. It's notable that both fighters mainly hit gloves with their punch combinations while most of the body and lowkicks from both hit their target.

Round 3:
Kiria dancing around the ring more now. I'm not sure if being on the backpedal is the right strategy against van Roosmalen. Boom! Kiria connects with a knee so fast I didn't even see it and van Roosmalen goes down! Van Roosmalen beats the count, but is hurt. Kiria tries to rush van Roosmalen, but he's regained composure and comes back with his own flurry. Round ends. Great fight!
Edit: it seems it was a punch that dropped van Roosmalen, not a knee.

Round 4:
Van Roosmalen on the hunt now, but he's clearly gained more respect for Kiria's hands. Van Roosmalen scores a lot of lowkicks, while Kiria counters with punching combinations. Kiria tries one of his trademark jumped spinning back kicks.

Round 5:
Van Roosmalen being a lot more aggressive than Kiria now, knowing it's very close due to the knockdown in Round 3. Kiria going forward for a last flurry at the clapper. Round ends. Van Roosmalen raises both hands, Kiria raises one.
Van Roosmalen scored more throughout the fight, but Kiria really impressed in rounds 3 and 4.
I'm leaning towards van Roosmalen to take it.

Van Roosmalen takes it by Majority Decision (2-0). Great entertaining fight. Too bad the already small venue is largely empty. Fights like these deserves a bigger stage.
