"Bowe, 21, knocked down Whiteside with a right hand less than a minute into the first round. The fight was stopped seconds later when Whiteside's eye began to swell." Bowe said, "He was an awkward puncher and I learned from that...I didn't get hit and anytime I don't get this pretty face hit, I'm pleased. The object of this game is to hit and not get hit. That's what I did." Source: Fayetteville (N.C.) Observer
