    I talked to some of his relatives. They say Mina was ducked years by Archie Moore.

    Saturday Night - October 11, 1958

    Palacio Penarol - Montevideo, Uruguay

    South American Light-Heavyweight Championship.

    The #7 World-Rated Light-Heavyweight - Uruguayan 29 year-old - Dogomar 'Dogo' Martinez 46-2-5 (21 KO's)
    will defend his Championship versus the 25 year-old Peruvian - Mauro Mina 31-1-1 (24 KO's).

    In front of 5000 Uruguay and pro-Martinez boxing fans, 'Dogo' Martinez overcomes a flash knockdown in Round 3,
    and a rough going over in Rounds 5 and 6, to rally and sweep the last 5-Rounds, to edge Mauro Mina over 15-Rounds,
    in defense of his South American Light-Heavyweight Championship.

    Another great thread Senor Pepe :good

    I happened to visit the Mauro Mina Collusiem in Chincha recently, a highlight of my trip. He also has a nephew (or grand nephew possibly???) who is an active boxer.

    Also love his fight with Hank. Tremendous fight.

    Thank You,,,,,,,,Bugger

    Very Much Appreciated ---

    Here's one,

    Following Mauor Mina's unsuccessful attempt at the South American Light-Heavyweight
    Championship in October 1958 - Mauro won his next '4' bouts.

    The 25 1/2 year-old Peruvian improved his fne mark to 35-2-1 (26 KO's) -

    Then on Wednesday Night - September 9, 1959 - The 'Bombardero de Chincha' was to
    face Dutch Light-Heavyweight from the Netherlands - Wim Snoek.

    The bout was held at the Estadio Nacional in Lima, Peru - and the bout was to be
    the 'first live boxing match' ever televised for Peruvian Television.

    Nearly 17,000 Peruvian fans turned out for the 'historic event'.

    Mauro Mina, now a World-Class Light-Heavyweight was an overwhelming 6-1 Favorite
    over the 32 year-old 6' 0" Dutchman, as Wim Snoek had gone a pathetic (2-9-3) in his
    last '14' bouts, bringing his overall record to 32-18-5 (15 KO's)

    Talk about a 'safe opponent'.

    Wim Snoek

    good u r keeping it real .
    maybe this and such events were d justification 4 his never getting a title shot ?

    Still a KO over Gregorio Peralta and a beating of Bob Foster which should have helped him climb d rankings in d future when Foster climbed them 4 some reason .

    rereading his record 2 decisions over Eddie Cotton , although both in Peru , a KO over Von Clay and a far away from home win over Henry Hank as well as some regional achievements 2 his credit do ensure that he was denied of a rightful title shot @ Harold Johnson at least .

    Archie Wright was 17 yrs Mina's senior so it is hard 4 me 2 blame him on ducking Mina .

    Although a reigning champion should fight d most 4midable opponents if he is a rightful champion regardless of many things including age but not regardless of everything .

    in d Cotton #1 he reminded me of Ken Norton , except that he had a chin , but in d Von Clay it was apparent that he could also fight going backwards and still end d fight effectively .

    Pity there is no video of Mina's KO over Peralta and that these r no complete fights .

    Spotty information on the June 19, 1960 bout between -

    Sunday Night at the Tribuna Norte del Estadio San Marcos - Lima, Peru

    Mauro 'Bombardero de Chincha' Mina (Peru)
    Record........42-2-1 (30 KO's)
    Age............26 years, 7 months
    Height.........5' 11 1/2"
    Reach.........74"
    Weight........176 lbs.

    versus

    Gregorio 'Goyo' Peralta (Argentina)
    Record........11-2-3 (9 KO's)
    Age............25 years, 1 month
    Height.........6' 0"
    Reach.........77"
    Weight........173 1/2 lbs.

    The result is, Mauro Mina scored a 'Knockout in the 8th Round', and registered '3' knockdowns
    on the 'granite jawed' Gregorio over the course of the bout.

    A little information states, that Mauro had Gregorio in a bad way in Round 2, but the Argentinian
    was able to dance away from the 'Powerful Peruvian' after absorbing a hard 'three punch combination'.

    Wednesday Night - October 12, 1960

    Acho Arena Bull Ring - Lima, Peru

    Attendance; 6000

    The 27 year-old Mauro Mina is given a very 'difficult' time over 10-Rounds, by
    Chilean Light-Heavyweight, the 34 1/2 year-old - Humberto Loayza.

    Humberto a 5' 11' boxer-puncher, with a record of 38-19-4 (24 KO's) repeatedly
    catches the 'lethargic' Mina with looping right hands, and short left hooks to the body.

    Luckily for Mauro, the bout is held in Lima, Peru - and he escapes with a hometown
    10-Round Decision, ti improve to 45-2-1.
