- Date: 1957-03-19
- Location: Auditorium, Oakland, California, USA
- Referee: Jack Downey
"Middleweight Joey Giambra took care of Al Andrews with dispatch last night but probably didn't improve his ranking in doing so. Joey, of San Francisco, tagged Andrews, of Superior, Wisconsin, in the 1st round with a left hook and quick right that decked Andrews, but he was up at the count of three. Before the round was over, Andrews had visited the canvas three more times, each for a count of four. Andrews went down for a six count in the 6th and his left eye was cut and nearly closed. California Athletic Commission ring physician, Dr. Louis Kameny, called for an end to the fight following examination of the eye. It goes officially as a 6th round TKO." -Associated Press
