Riley knocked McAllister down with a left hook and right cross to the chin for a nine-count in the 4th round. McAllister was also staggered in the 7th, 8th, and 11th rounds, though he fought more aggressively than he did in their previous St. Louis meeting.
Riley had agreed to weigh 128 pounds, which he failed to do, and wound up posting a $500 forfeit as a result. Source: St. Louis Post-Dispatch
