Did anyone ever see Dave McAuley v Rodolfo Blanco 1

I don't mean to take up too much space on your section here.
A bit of a shot in the dark.

These two boxers fought on 2 occassions sharing the spoils.

Did anyone see the first contest ?

I did but a long time ago.

Great fight!!

Mcauley going up and down like a yo-yo but between knock downs scoring enough points to win a close decision.

I thought that Dave won the second fight also. (close)

I remember this too, great fight but the general consensus was that it was a hometown decision, based on the knockdowns.

There was a lot of discussion about the decision after the fight, maybe I should watch the tape again. As I remember it the problem was that McAuley won something like 8-4 in rounds. He was winning the rounds big, when he was knocked down, so how do you score such a round? 10-8 or 10-9?
