Fight recap:
Quinn got staggered early in the fight (round 2), but came back and won the 3rd round. In round 5, Cole hit Quinn with a nasty right cross, dropping him for an 8 count. Quinn made it through the rest of the round and that ended up being the only knockdown in the fight. The rest of the fight was lopsided, with Cole winning every round.
Historical bout:
Although the fight was called a no-decision, The Philadelphia Item said that Quinn received a drubbing.
