    Oh, sorry mate, I haven't got a spare copy, hence the question, but I can provide you with the info/report if that's what you want.

    The fight review is way too long to type it all out, here's the scoring from BN and newspapers:

    Main headline: Quarry Fails To Explode, but BN had Jerry three rounds ahead at the end and wer puzzled by the boos from the crowd when the decision was announced. They felt that people felt this because "Middleton appeared to score well with left jabs". They commented that his height and style gave Jerry problems and had it even after 6, then Quarry outpunched Middleton over the final few stanzas.


    Other scorecards:


    Daily Mirror: 7-2-1. Quarry
    The Guardian: 5-4-1. Quarry
    The Times: 5-5. Draw
    DailyMail: Quarry. 5-4-1.
    Reg Gutteridge TV Commentator: "I was surprised the decision was tight and that many fans sided with Middleton"
    The Sun: "Middleton's performance now puts him among the elite of Ali, Frazier and Foreman, Larry put up a great performance and amde Quarry look very ordinary"
    Evening Standard "The close decision flattered Middleton"
    Mickey Duff: "Quarry winner by one round"

    I know but it hasn't been working for ages. I find little 'home' use for it anyway (and if it was working it would open a whole load of "scan this for me" requests, including the Monzon Ring interview ;)).
