The Associated Press reported: "Holyfield, of Atlanta, scored at will with head punches in pounding out his unanimous decision over tough Lionel Byarm of Philadelphia. Byarm, 177½, now 9-2-2 as a pro, was able to score some body punches, but Holyfield was just too quick and punched too sharply. Holyfield, 177½, shook Byarm on several occasions and had him in trouble in the fifth round."
