Giusti showed a strong right hand punch in the bout, as he dropped Lovatt in the 1st round, and put him down in the 2nd round in an exchange, that the Providence Journal felt was a slip. Lovatt was the aggressor in the bout, while Giusti was the better boxer, with the Journal favoring Lovatt 4-3-1 in the rounds, but noting that the crowd did not seem to dispute the split decision verdict.
