Alan minter vs vito antoufermo i

[Boro chris]

Have heard it was a tough/ very close fight with Minter being considered very lucky to get the decision.
Just saw it on youtube and am rather baffled by that view as I had Minter wining fairly clearly in a grueling fight.
Any ideas why its considered slightly contraversial?

[turpinr]

it wasn't even close.
the british judge gave it 15-0 to minter and i think that was the only controversy.

:rofl 15-0 is nuts! That was a hard fight.
I didn't score it, just sat down and enjoyed it, but I felt Minter was the harder and cleaner puncher of the two, whilst Vito sort of smothered his work at times.

[Mantequilla]

Yeah, the real contoversy was the judging.

As a mater of interest-what are peoples scores on the fight?
Didn't score it myself but I felt Minter had it in the bag by about 3-4 rounds. Not a bad match actually.

0:35cheers great A i was thinking of either sid nathan or roland dakin:patsch

[Boro chris]

Apparently, bizzarely enough, Hunter S Thompson was terrified of Minter and believed he was being stalked by him!:rofl
I think he hid under a table when Minter walked into the same room.

Minter pissed it, imo.

[GPater11093]

i thought it was a very close fight with Minter just taking it by a point or 2 but i thought he definitly got it as his rounds were alot clearer.

[mcvey]

minter pissed it.
i can't remember the judges name.
sid nathan i think.
my dad actually agreed:lol:

The judge was Roland Dakin.And he wasnt far out imo.

I havent seen it since it happened. But I seemed to remember. I actually though Antuofermo won. Would love to see it again soon.

[Woller]

Roland Dakin was closest to the truth. Something like 12-3 or 13-2 for Minter is right. I have seen the tape several times. In their second fight Minter made it even easier. I am not a great Minter fan, but Antuofermo was tailormade for him.

Woller:goodhe did look easy for minter.
i never had any doubts about who'd win their fights.
besides maurice hope ,who stopped antuofermo,which other southpaws did antuofermo fight ??

[bennie]

Hagler, of course, whom Vito had just held to a magnificent draw when Minter came along, so it was a great win for Minter, although referee Carlos Padilla copped a lot of flak for refusing to allow Vito to fight inside and Roland Dakin travelled over on the same plane as Minter, both of which led to an immediate rematch.
Minter then picked Vito to pieces in London.

[Mr Butt]

i thought minter won the fight clearly
