Antuofermo retained the titles in his first title defense, loantšanang le Babatsehang Marvin Hagler to a 15-round draw in Las Vegas.
The popular Antuofermo, who fought professionally between 1971 le 1985, also defeated Emile Griffith, Denny Moyer, Willie Classen, Willie Warren, Bennie Briscoe le Eugene Hart, har'a feta bahlomphehi. Many of Vito’s early fights were at legendary Sunnyside Gardens in Queens, later at the famed Madison Square Garden. He was inducted into the NYSBHOF inaugural class in 2012.
