Costello had to run and sweat off pounds to just make the 160 pound middleweight limit in his bout against former world featherweight champion [[Juan Laporte]]. Final bout for both. Costello won a ten round split decision. Observers thought LaPorte won.<br /> <br /> * The bout was the preliminary bout to the main event of [[Larry Holmes]] versus Bonecrusher [[James Smith]]. The North Carolina card was the idea of Smith, a North Carolina native who came up with the concept of staging fight cards for former champions and famous fighters ages 35 to 50 to promote the sport. Smith lost to Holmes on the card, which proved to be the only card ever staged with the 35-50' seniors' boxing concept. While a concept discussed from time to time, safety issues have prevented the concept of creating a boxing 'seniors belt category', Also on the card, former world heavyweight champion [[Greg Page]] stopped [[Tim Witherspoon]], another former champion, after Witherspoon tore a back muscle and did not answer the bell for the eighth round. Witherspoon had lost five in a row. Page later incurred permanent brain injuries in a fight with [[Dale Crowe]]. Costello later became a boxing judge.<br /> <br /> * Sports Illustrated story report on the 'Legends' card [http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/more/boxing/news/1999/06/18/holmes_smith/]</div>

<p>James galaxy: </p> <hr /> <div>[[File:KhanGarcia.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Official Fight Poster]]<br /> &lt;fight&gt;1702501&lt;/fight&gt;<br /> *'''Aired On:''' [[HBO World Championship Boxing]] (Main Event)<br /> *'''[[World Boxing Council]] Light Welterweight Title''' (1st defense by Garcia)<br /> *'''[[World Boxing Association]] Super World Light Welterweight Title''' (Khan defending)<br /> *'''[[The Ring Magazine]] Junior Welterweight Title''' (vacant) <br /> <br /> <br /> Undefeated underdog Danny Garcia of Philadelphia claimed his second world title in as many fights by scoring a fifth-round TKO win of Amir Khan (26-2) to add Khan's WBA Super World Light Welterweight Title to his WBC Light Welterweight title which he defended.<br /> <br /> Amir Khan looked sharp in the opening two rounds, landing crisp shots in between Garcia's wider punches. By the end of Round 2, Garcia had a very small cut above his right eye below the eyebrow on the lid which ultimately was not a factor in the bout.<br /> <br /> The momentum swung in an instant in the third when Garcia landed a single, looping counter left hook in the final 30 seconds to the left side of Khan's neck which sent Khan down hard. He got to his feet quickly, but was badly staggered. Khan was able to tie up Garcia and block to survive the remainder of the round.<br /> <br /> Khan was ruled down early in Round 4 when a punch sent him off balance and appeared to cause his glove to touch the mat. A left hook to the top of the head, followed by a right sent Khan down for a second time in the round. He got to his feet and indicated to referee Kenny Bayless that he was OK to continue, but Bayless called an end to the fight as Khan's wobbly legs did not appear to fully under him. As happened 30 seconds into Khan's bout with [[Breidis Prescott]], Khan was unable to recover again after being knocked down by power hitter Garcia.<br /> <br /> Garcia had predicted a knockout of Khan in the third round. He came close, as Khan never recovered from the third round knockdown, though the counter punching Garcia's side punch to the neck which sent Khan down off balance was not a direct impact head shot.<br /> <br /> == Notes ==<br /> * Danny Garcia 23-0 (14 KOs) vs. Amir Khan 26-2 (18 KOs) <br /> * Khan entered as the # 1 junior welterweight contender according to [[The Ring Magazine]].

O'Sullivan appeared to dominate the first half of the bout, Hall appeared to dominate the second half of the bout. But as the British television boxing commentators, who had the bout for Hall on their unofficial scorecards, still noted, &quot;Many of these rounds are very close and difficult to interpret or score.&quot; Hall appeared to win rounds 9, 10 and 11 as O'Sullivan tired abit and faded slightly, but O'Sullivan came back to win the twelfth and final round to get the unanimous decision of the judge's scorecards. If Hall had turned one more round, the bout would have been a split decision for O'Sullivan. But as two judges had the bout 117-11 for O'Sullivan, the seemingly close bout marked by in fighting exchanges was not close at all. It should be noted the Luxembourg Boxing Federation which sanctioned this Upton Park 'card' had Hall versus O'Sullivan as an approved sanctioned bout. However, the [[David Haye]] versus [[Dereck Chisora]] ten round WBO European title heavyweight bout which followed went against the British Board of Control as Chisora was under indefinite suspension. Neither Haye nor Chisora were licensed in Great Britain. Hall and O'Sullivan were properly licensed in Great Britain. As a result, Hall versus O'Sullivan appeared on the Boxrec but Haye-Chisora did not The WBC threatened to expel the Luxembourg Boxing Federation if Haye-Chisora went on as scheduled. In defiance, the WBA and WBO sanctioned Haye versus Chisora in full support of the Luxembourg Boxing Federation. <br /> <br /> * Over 20,000 tickets were sold for the card according to [[Dereck Chisora]]'s manager [[Frank Warren]] who put together the [[Matthew Hall]] vs Gary O'Sullivan, [[Liam Walsh]] vs Domenico Urbano, and [[David Haye]] vs [[Dereck Chisora]] WBO title bouts in London.</div>
