I used to kind of look up to him because he wore the same type of clobber and had the same type of hairstyle as me and my mates had. To be honest, although he fought a stupid fight against Hagler, he would have been well beaten whatever the tac tics he had used. Hagler was at a different level imo. His over confidence going into the Hagler fight was due to the fact he had beaten Antuofermo twice quite comfortably whereas Hagler only drew with him i think it might even been the fight after Hagler drew with him that Minter beat him to get the title......but yes agreed regardless,Hagler every day of the week and twice on Sunday. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It brought a memory back in a flash. Now reckon it was early 80's and I was a little hippy type at the time, would had been up the smoke to see either Frank Zappa at Wembley pool or Crosby, Stills Nash and Young at Wembley. Christ know where we was in town but went into a pub just like that sat at a round table in the middle and decided to have a game of cards. So asked for a deck no problem and sorted 25 cards we needed out from the pack to play a game called Euchre. Well Euchre was played in just about every Pub at the time in the West Country at that time not so much now but still a bit of league. As we started to play we drew a circle of mostly older chaps all around us that started to get a bit stroppy as they thought we was students on a wind up. They had never seen the game so we gave up playing laid the hand on the table an explained how the game worked to get us out of trouble, most went back to the bar. Half a dozen stay and we had a bloody good laugh with them. Funny how things turn out sometimes. Cheers Arry I've tried and failed how to play Euchre mate.
