    Correct weight mate....and the welterweight title changed hands 4 times.

    How about the previous question (the short Com title fight).

    Who was the first opponent to knock down Hector Thompson?

    Probably easy for most but I just watched the fight and it was an awesome display by both fighters.

    Mate... you really got me on this one... I have none of my books in my possession, being in storage... yet, I'll throw a few names at you... Herny Nissan, Bobby Dunne, Tony Mundine, Paul Ferreri, Jeff Malcolm, Guinnea Hillier???, Barry Michael, Charkey Ramon... all 70's Commonwealth champs from memory...

    A question mark with Hillier though...

    Of those names, I could only assume Nissan may have fluked a first round KO????

    Tony Mundine would be next most likely.

    Ferreri definately not.

    Bobby Dunne may have caused a one round shock over Manny Santos??? I believe they boxed the full distance??

    Not Leo Young, as I know he lost his Oz JnrL/W crown to him...


    Would have to be Duran at a guess??? Cervantes maybe??

    Initial thought was Baby Cassius, who I reckon beat Hec twice. But that was after Duran, who certainly sat him down....I'd go for Duran.
