This was a tremendous fight "that had the fans on their feet.." Riley was slightly ahead after four and a half rounds, but weakened from Terranova's body attack and was floored for the count. Riley had his best round in the 4th round, when he drove Terranova into the ropes, and appeared to have him in trouble. Terranova took over that, with his body attack.
- Terranova's purse: $3,766.50
