First proper show i went too was to see these two in Finsbury Park '89, and i can remember Jonny Nelson in a prelim but no one else. Anyone know more or link to site.

What an atmosphere in that tent. Mental stuff. Remember seeing a young Roy Jones ringside, and a young Eubank, young Lennox Lewis, Michael Nunn, most of the Arsenal football team - heck, most black top-flight English footballers. Benn's showy entrance... the original arena entry later taken by Eubank, Naz, (Jones, Mayweather et al).
