Martirosyan (155) dropped Munoz (156) at 1:30 of the opening stanza in a bout scheduled for ten rounds with a whistling counter left hook to the head. The 21-year-old Martirosyan, Glendale, California via Abovyan, Armenia was simply the classier fight and he continued to land the heavier artillery in the abbreviated contest.
