			*Unofficial AP scorecard - 97-91 Giardello
			*The Hayward Daily Review stated that there was an attendance of 11,000 at the Cow Palace rather than the 8,891 reported by the Oakland Tribune. The disparity in attendance figures could possibly be due to the fact that customers threatened to breakdown the turnstiles when there were no more $2.50 cheap seats available, so the promoters offered $1.50 SRO to the customers.

			Post fight comment

			* "That Rory was throwing every punch in the books, but I threw a few myself. I'll take on anybody. We're in this business to fight. I'm ready for Sugar Ray or anybody. This was just a light workout." -Joey Giardello
