According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Wilkerson provided resistance until he began to buckle under Moore's sharpshooting in the 4th round. In the 6th round, Moore landed a left hook to the jaw that sent Wilkerson halfway through the ropes. Wilkerson moved back to the center of the ring, where he was showered with blows, until the referee intervened.
