The middleweight bout was declared a no-decision after Stewart took a blatantly illegal knee in the first round of the bout. Referee Herb Dean twice called the cageside doctor in to look at Stewart, and the second time, the doctor decided Stewart could not continue after testing his gait by asking him to walk.
