"In the other 10 round main event, 5th ranking featherweight Dwight Hawkins of Los Angeles won an unpopular split decision over Jet Parker of the Philippines. The Filipino fighter won the early rounds with flurries of punches from all angles which forced Hawkins to miss repeatedly. But Parker seemed to slow down in the late rounds and Hawkins constantly punished him to the body." -United Press International
