Alan Minter Boxing Career
Minter began his professional career with 11 straight wins, the first against Maurice Thomas in London on October 31, 1972 (Halloween), winning by knock-out in the 6th round. Minter won his first five fights by knockout until January 16, 1973, when Pat Dwyer went the distance, Minter minter taking the fight on points.
Minter won his next five fights, three by knockout, before being defeated for the first time after the referee stopped the fight in the eighth round against “Scottish” Don McMillan due to bad cuts suffered by Minter. Two more wins followed before facing Jan Magziarz, who beat him twice in a row (once in the eighth and once in the sixth) again due to cuts
In 1979, Minter won all four of his fights, two of them by knockout. On 16 March 1980, in Las Vegas, he was given a shot at World Middleweight Champion Vito Antuofermo’s title at Caesars Palace. He won the title by a 15-round split decision in which the judges’ scorecards varied wildly. A Venezuelan judge had Minter losing the fight, while the British judge had Minter winning 13 of the 15 rounds. In a rematch held in London, Minter retained the world title by a TKO in eight rounds.
On September 27, 1980, Minter’s run as world champion came to an end when he was stopped on cuts in the third round against ‘marvelous’ Marvin Hagler at Wembley Arena in London. It was a fight tainted by a racist slur, Minter later retracted, but had charged the crowd to near chaos, with projectiles being hurled into the ring after the decision.
Minter beat fringe contender Ernie Singletary in London, in 1981, but after losses to future Hagler challengers Mustafa Hamsho in Las Vegas and Tony Sibson in London, he retired for good. He left boxing with a record of 39 wins, 9 losses, and 1 no contest, with 23 wins by knockout.
