Referee: Benjy Esteves Jr. In what was a huge shock, Phillips (140) proved that boxing was a game of styles and opportunities as he took his when forcing a stoppage at 1.22 of the tenth round over a champion whose star was on the rise. After Tszyu (140) had been dropped by a big right in the seventh, the fight changed completely and picking up where he left off ~~in the seventh~~ Phillips was still sending in big punches during the eighth and ninth. ~~It was now apparent that~~ Tszyu ~~had~~ no defence against a right through the middle ~~and~~ he was eventually rescued by the referee when on his way to the canvas, with both eyes cut and badly deflated. Phillips also had a nasty gash over the right eye.	+	1997-05-31 [[Vince Phillips]] w rsc 10 [[Kostya Tszyu]], Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA - IBF.
