Performance Notes"Alan Minter retained his British middleweight boxing title amid cheers, boos and unrelenting excitement at the Albert Hall last night, when he outpointed the former champion, Kevin Finnegan, by the narrowest possible margin, half a point, just as she did when he won the vacant championship against Finnegan last November." (The Times)
