Description

In his pomp, Nigel Benn was regarded as the hardest pound-for-pound fighter in world boxing - earning him the nickname 'The Dark Destroyer' - and during his career he achieved the rare feat of winning world titles at two different weights. Born in Ilford in 1964, Benn turned professional in 1987 after winning 41 of his 42 amateur fights and he was soon causing waves in the higher echelons of the sport with 22 successive victories. By 1990, he was ready for his first shot at a world title as he prepared to face Doug DeWitt for the WBO middleweight belt and he stopped the highly-rated American in the eighth in what was a brutal fight. Benn was a world champion. His reign was to less than 12 months however as he lost in his second defence against compatriot and great rival Chris Eubank at the NEC in Birmingham in a fight still regarded as an all-time classic. Been was undeterred however and two years later he was a world champion again. This time he faced Mauro Galvano, the holder of the WBC Super Middleweight belt, and when the referee stopped the fight in the twelfth on a technical knockout, Benn was back on top. Sadly, it was to be the highpoint of his career. A brutal title fight against Gerald McClellan left the American blind, severely deaf and struggling to walk and the fire in Benn's belly was extinguished. He retired in 1996 after losing for a second time to Irishman Steve Collins Own a piece of sporting history Nigel Benn was one of the most fiercest and more feared boxers of his generation and his famed world title fights in the 1990s were some of the most dramatic and often brutal bouts witnessed in England. The glove is personally signed Benn himself and is a unique piece of sporting memorabilia. The glove is issued with a certificate of authenticity.
