• Referee: Remy Dorr

Burke outboxed Martin early in the bout, though Martin had shown a powerful right hand that would later prove telling. In the 5th round, Martin cracked Burke with two left hooks, before flooring him heavily with a right hand to the jaw. Burke barely rose, and was quickly rendered defenseless by Martin, leading to the referee's intervention.
