BATTLE OF THE TEENYBOPPERS
Posted: 19 May 2013, 17:01
Has there ever been any film or tape shown of the 1972 Olympic Auditorium battle between Danny Lopez and Tury Pineda? KCOP would have been broadcasting the card at that time but of course Lopez-Pineda was off-TV. Still I think that it must have been taped but I've never even seen a short clip of it.
Also, does anyone know with certainty whether Pineda has passed on? I believe I recall reading a short newspaper blurb on his passing maybe 5 years ago, but I find no verification anywhere on the internet. If anyone knows Pineda's current status, the info would be appreciated.
