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, left, is seen here ducking a punch from Jun Suk Hwang.
