 Boxing Looks Back at Former Undisputed Middleweight Champion Alan Minter Part III   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Minter's last match was an attempt to regain the European Title from new Champion Tony Sibson, a squat and powerful young fighter whose concentration tended to fluctuate, but who could hand out some punishment when he was in the mood.
Minter outjabbed him for two rounds, but then Sibson found the range, and decked Minter with left hooks, forcing not only the older man's first legitimate knockdown as a pro, but also a countout by the referee.
Alan Minter was unlikely to ever have been a long-serving World Champion - his propensity to cut and his defensive limitations precluded that - but by the same time the Middleweight division in 1980-82, with the exception of Hagler, wasn't awash with superstar talent.

Woods said: "Minter stood up and went on a rant about his son's (Ross) career and then started talking about his own fights.
That would be fine under different circumstances - I think Ross is an improved fighter and Minter is a former world champion - but it wasn't his moment, it was mine.
