Jan was Minter´s bogeyman. Their styles did not blend and in the first two fights they clashed heads repeatetly and Minter lost due to cuts. The third fight was a stinker. When Minter took a step foreward, Jan stepped back and vice verca. Almost from the start there were boing, slow handclapping and later things were thrown into the ring. Harry Gibbs were not able to get them to fight and flung them both out in the fourth. Both fighters were fined 1000 pounds.
The fight exists on tape in a near full version. Both Minter and Gibbs mention the fight in their autobiographies.
