According to the San Francisco Chronicle; Morrow landed a left-right that dropped Moore for a six count. After Moore got up a little shaky, he pulled back into a long left hook, which floored him for a nine count. Moore got up wobbly, but pushed Morrow back with a flurry to the body. As he plunged forward though, Morrow tagged him with a straight right that stretched him for the full count.
