Apologies. I didn't mean to hit the LOL button on your post. 
Sausage fingers on a small handset.

Thank you for the link though. What a round!

Not that it matters but I think if you click on the lol again it disappears 

It works on Henry's promotes

Wasn’t he particularly motivated before the Minter fight due to an alleged racial slur from Minter ?

Yes, Minter said before the fight that he "wouldn't lose his title to a black man" - although Minter claims he he said "that black man" - not that that is much better.

To be fair to Minter he really did mix it up with Hagler and showed incredible courage against a much stronger opponent but he just got blown out of the ring by Marvellous Marvin.

RIP - up there with my favourite fighters of my youth. One of the reasons I like boxing

That fight with Hearns where Hagler clocked him so hard, Hearns started walking in the opposite direction.
