Notes

  • Named The Ring magazine Upset of the Year for 1992.
  • In front of 40,000 fans, Nelson dropped Fenech in the 1st, 2nd and 8th rounds before Mercante waved it off.
  • A completely different fight to their first encounter. Nelson a rock from the opening bell, Fenech knocked down early and always looking fragile, though busy. After fight, Nelson said 'Fenech is a boy, I am a man'.
