A pair of Nigel Benn's previously owned and used boxing shorts and zip-up top. We are unsure whether they were used in a fight or for a promotional shoot. The outfit was manufactured by Charlie Magri Sports, back when his shop in Bethnal Green was still operational. The items are accompanied by a letter of provenance from the daughter of June Wright, who was donated the items personally by Nigel Benn for "all her hard work raising funds for Luekemia Research in which she was branch secretary for Hastings, East Sussex".
The shorts and top are both red and black with a velvet like finish. The trunks have a single black stripe down each leg and a black waistband. "BENN" is stitched into the front of the waistband and "RUDE BOY" the back. The top has two stripes down each arm and "NIGEL RUDE BOY BENN" stitched on the back. The sleeves have zips so that boxing gloves can be worn with the top on. Both in fine condition.
