The 12th-seeded Marton from Melbourne was no match for Egypt's Seif Eissa, going down 11-1 at Makuhari Messe Hall on Monday.
The fifth seed was up 8-0 less than a minute into the contest thanks to a pair of kicks to the head and another to the body.
The contest was a good as over after the first round as the Egyptian held a 11-0 lead, with Marton's sole point coming from a penalty to Eissa.
