Notes
- Horn was set to rematch Manny Pacquiao on November 12th. Pacquiao pulled out of the bout due to his Filipino government commitments. Therefore Horn was entitled to a voluntary defence.
- The winner of this bout must defend against Terence Crawford in a mandatory defence.
- Corcoran fought hard, but was outclassed by Horn in a rough and active affair. Horn cut in round six and Corcoran cut in round eight, which worsened by round eleven, therefore the referee stopped the contest, acting on the instructions from Corcorans corner.
