Notes
Chip won the newspaper decision according to both the New Castle News and the Pittsburgh Post. While the News headlined "Greb proves master of hanging on and shows little else" the Post reported : "The aggressive, never-say-die spirit the former titleholder displayed in keeping after his nimble opponent earned him the victory in the last half of the encounter. The heat and exertion seemed to bother the Pittsburgher more.." The Post gave Greb the 1st, 3rd, and 5th rounds and Chip the others, with the 2nd and 4th being very close.
