MARVIN HAGLER-WILLIE MONROE III bout length

[ProfessorLindenbrook]

Hello. Just going through some more video tape to HD transferring of some vintage bouts and I've come across some opposing information concerning the August 23, 1977 rubber match between MARVELOUS MARVIN HAGLER and WILLIE "The Worm" MONROE. Your data base has the bout as scheduled for 10 rounds. In viewing the original Prism telecast the on-screen graphics as well as ring announcer Ed Derian have the fight as 12 rounds. I'm going to list it as a 12 rounder in my HD/Blu-ray database unless there is other information to dispute this. Thanks again for providing a wonderful site. It has proved invaluable in archiving nearly 45 years of tape/film collecting.

You are correct. It was announced as such and I have made the change. I had a question: Since you are converting classic bouts, do you have Eckhard Dagge-Emile Griffith? I am trying to get reach information on Dagge and I was hoping the telecast might have it.

Sorry, but I do not believe I have this contest. However, I have thousands of tapes to go through so if I were to come across it I will let you know. All the best.
