"Joey Giambra from Buffalo, NY, called for another bout with Joey Giardello after beating Rocky Castellani again last night. Giambra rallied after losing the first three rounds. In both the 4th and 5th stanzas, Joey scored heavily with combinations to the head and Rocky appeared wobbly. Giambra abandoned his customary left hook during the 5th round and started scoring with right-left combinations to the face. The strategy paid off, especially in the 9th round when he dropped Castellani with a right to the head in a neutral corner for the count of three." -Associated Press
