Donald Curry – heir apparent to Marvin Hagler as the best fighter, pound-for-pound, in the world was shockingly stopped by big underdog Lloyd Honeyghan #OnThisDay in 1986 for the undisputed welterweight championship at Caesars Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City. The fight was stopped after six rounds with Curry on his stool with a bad cut over his left eye. ''I sensed I had him from the first round,'' the 26-year-old Honeyghan said afterward. He was ahead on all three cards. With the victory, Honeyghan improved to 28-0, with 21 knockouts while Curry lost for the first time. #boxing #BoxingNews #BoxingHistory #LloydHoneyghan #DonaldCurry (at Caesars Atlantic City Hotel & Casino) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoOadCVh90Q/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10x36mywgoyz1
