Description
Clipping reads: "Fort Worth's first title fight at the Tarrant County Convention Center was a clash in cultures as well as a clash between boxers. Donald Curry of Fort Worth won a unanimous 15-round decision over South Korea's Jun Suk Hwang to capture the World Boxing Association welterweight title. But both fighters had their cheering sections." Curry fans are seen pictured here standing behind part of Hwang's Korean contingent, showing who they support by holding up five letter signs spelling out "Curry."
