Joe Hendry retaining through a disputed closing sequence keeps the championship picture unsettled, because Ricky Saints lost after referee-blind contact rather than a clean exchange.

Ethan Page’s ringside role also leaves open conflict in multiple directions, since his title-belt involvement affected both Hendry and Saints during the deciding stretch.
