This fight was originally scheduled for June 13, 1951 at the Polo Grounds in New York. After two postponements due to rain it was moved inside to Madison Square Garden on June 15. Savold entered the fight recognized as World Heavyweight Champion by the British Boxing Board of Control. After Louis knocked him out, the organization decided to recognize Ezzard Charles, who had decisively defeated Louis the previous year, as the Heavyweight Champion of the World.

Although the stub reads Polo Grounds, it was recognized at Madison Sqaure Garden because of the postponements. It does show wear and pencil writing on the front.
