That guy was very fortunate not to experience the famed 'LAPDchoke-hold.' On camera at least. I have always assumed they choked him out later.
The fight, though...In those days boxing mattered and they would have the results on the 10pm news. I remember waiting to hear the result of that fight. On another night I waited to hear the result of Ganigan vs Gonzalez, and Davila vs Sandoval. I remember asking my mother to let me stay up late to hear the result when Little Red Lopez fought turi pineda years before.
