NIGEL BENN V CHRIS EUBANK 1993 ("JUDGEMENT DAY") BOXING PROGRAMME

Official on-site souvenir program for the "Judgement Day" fight between Benn and Eubank for the WBC Super-Middleweight title, at Old Trafford, on October 9 1993. Over 40,000 fans crammed into Old Trafford, Manchester United's ground, for one of the biggest boxing events ever staged with more than half a billion people watching on TV. The fight did not quite reach the brutal heights of the first one, however, but there were flurries of punches at the end of the rounds as both boxers tried to win the rounds knowing there was more chance of the fight running the distance as the bout progressed. The final round was a thriller, with both boxers told they needed it to win. The final scores were 115-113 Eubank, 114-113 Benn, and 114-114. The bout was thus declared a draw meaning Benn retained his WBC belt, Eubank his WBO championship.

Very good condition.
