Nelson started fast, but seemed to be worn down and rendered ineffective by Fenech's swarming attacks and dogged perseverance. Looked close to being stopped in final round. Draw decision very controversial. Nelson later claimed that he had fought the bout days after another bout--with malaria. Boxrec

Fair use
Additionally, the fair use defense to copyright infringement was codified for the first time in section 107 of the 1976 Act. Fair use was not a novel proposition in 1976, however, as federal courts had been using a common law form of the doctrine since the 1840s (an English version of fair use appeared much earlier). The Act codified this common law doctrine with little modification. Under section 107, the fair use of a copyrighted work is not copyright infringement, even if such use technically violates section 106. While fair use explicitly applies to use of copyrighted work for criticism, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research purposes, the defense is not limited to these areas. The Act gives four factors to be considered to determine whether a particular use is a fair use: the purpose and character of the use (commercial or educational, transformative or reproductive); the nature of the copyrighted work (fictional or factual, the degree of creativity); the amount and substantiality of the portion of the original work used; and the effect of the use upon the market (or potential market) for the original work.

Who’s here after hearing fenech got the belt given to him ✌🏼
Azumah Nelson whipped his ass twice !! Let that sink in
The WBC just awarded Fenech the win for this fight. 31 years later. Fenech now has 4 World Titles to his name.
It's a disgrace we all know who the true winner is
Congratulations Jeff. Finally recognised as the winner of this fight and given the belt you deserved back then.
Hahaa Azumah Nelson whipped his ass and did it twice !! U can keep crying
@@bestoftiktok54 I suggest you go to see an optometrist. It's clear that your sight is really bad. Keep trying though.

Peak boxing bullshit
One of the greatest fights ever, I remember watching it and it's always stuck in my head. This highlights film doesn't do it justice, It was absolutely relentless. I also remember Fenech shouting and screaming after the decision (and rightly so) that they should have the rematch there and then. One of the best fights EVER and also equally one of the worst decisions ever.
Nothing you said can be disputed.
@@boxingchief9543 this didn’t age well for ya buddy they gave fenech the belt ya 🤡
@@saintly8286 He was agreeing numpty
Azumah Nelson whipped his ass
You couldn't whip cream.
Imagine working this hard and sacrificing everything when all along it was impossible for you to win because of corruption
And it cost him a place in history. There were only two 4 division champs at the time of memory serves. Leonard and Hearns. Both Fenech and Arguello were robbed of joining that elite group.
One of the best battles of the 90's this one !....two awesome fighters and two legends. I thought Fenech won then and still think that now. I wonder how Naz wouldve got on with either one of these two 🥊🥊 they sure dont make boxers like this anymore. If only heavyweights were as good to watch. Loved watching this again.
One of the worst, if not THE worst decisions I ever saw... I had it 10 - 2, 9 - 3 if I'm looking for Nelson rounds for Jeff. And the worst part is this would've made Fenech the first undefeated four division champ AND it ruined his mojo... he was not the same fighter ever again after that... but one of the great action fights of all time as they were glued to a ring post wailing away on each other for 12 rounds... but hats off to Azumah, an all-time great for sure who proved his greatness again in Australia in the rematch.
Azuma NELSON is a legend we ghanians are of him
We are very proud of him. The professor is our pride and joy
Yes a tremendous fighter but any reasonable boxing fan would agree he lost that fight
Two fine warriors, but Fenech was a clear points winner for me. Great fight. Loved both these boxers.
I remember this fight well. Great fight and then there was the rematch. The Professor proved his point.
Nelson got his ass kicked in that fight. At the end of the fight, when each corner is removing the gloves, look at the difference in the expression of each fighter. Fenech knew he’d won while Nelson was near motionless. He knew he’d probably lost the fight. I will say this about Don King: he has organized and promoted some of the best fights we will ever see in our lives, but at the same time, he has seriously tarnished the sport of boxing with his cheating and corruption.
Side note: Salvador Sánchez could’ve beaten all of them. May he RIP.
Jeff doesn't respect football rules, he could push Nelson down.he could e ve en hit the referee. Jeff boxing skills isn't nice at all
Azumah Nelson whipped his ass twice !! Let that sink in
Why do people do that, we will never know. Fenech wiped azumah in this fight, I think this was like 8 or 9 fights after sanchez and everyone thought he was unstoppable except those who knew of fenech.
Definitely spot on with Don, that pos put some of the best fights together, I feel like now all we get is people talking about fighting but run the other way.
@@aphaseelec Truth.
Today November 9th of 2022 Justice was done when the result of this particular fight agains Nelson was finally declared as a win for Fenech.... after more than 20 years The world Boxing council recognised what we all who watched the fight new all along...
Fenech was relentless and Nelson too , cardio machines
Even in the post fight hug fenech was backing him to the ropes lol
A Classic fight from 1990,s I'm Bigger fan Mr.Azumah warrior Genius of Truth of freedom 😮😅😊🎉❤ Boxing 🥊.
Got to be two of the best fighters to ever step into a ring.
Jeff Fenech was second to Tyson with the "Peek a Boo" style and Nelson was always game for a fight. God bless!
Not only did French win the fight on points, he was close to knocking Nelson down in the 12th. Absolute typical Vegas robbery.
From 13:05 to the end of the round Fenech landed about 6-7 clean shots
Remember it well. It’s ok we will never forget this. We all new Fenech was robbed.
Congratulations Jeff on the win and it’s about time they turned the decision. Doesn’t compensate what he went through though. He should get a pay out.
Did you hear the crowd when it was announced it was a split decision? Fenech won it by a mile. Nelson was lucky it was a 12 rounder. He was gone at the end of the 12th.
This was actually the best fight of the night.
I didn’t realize that this was the same night as Tyson-Ruddock I
Justice at last for Jeff.
Jeff overcame Nelson but he couldn’t overcome King with the judges in his back pocket.
Even Tyson beat up King.
What a dangerous sport to be a crook.
Jeff thought he won cos nelson couldn’t knock him out
@@francisameyaweffah2311
Wrong.
Jeff thought he won because he won.
@Sumpy Dexter….we’ll said
Jeff thought he won, because he was the effective aggressor, landed more of the clean punches, and dictated the pace (ring generalship). These are the criteria for judging a fight.
Also the booing over the result was another clear sign.
Few in the crowd would’ve known who Jeff was but still believed he was robbed.
When you fight a King fighter best you KO them and take the result out of the judges hands.
I don't know what fight the judges were watching to come up with those scores but recently that decision was overturned giving Fenech the win that he obviously earned and in doing so making him a champion in four different weight categories. 👏🏻🏅🥊🖤
Rematch settled bout. For the first fight, Nelson claimed he had been recovering from malaria, a nasty tropical disease.
Consequently, going into the second fight, he boldly predicted a knock out. We have to admit that he was spot on, on the knock out, in Fenech's backyard. Azumah thrived on beating rivals on their home turf, as he did to our Charm Chiteule, earlier, in Zambia.
Does not change the unexplainable, and unacceptable incompetent decision that Fenech deserved. Nothing will change the fact he should be a 4 division champion…..and will NEVER get that recognition.
Nelson was a great fighter, but has several bad nights at 130, and had an excuse for every last one of them.
@@boxingchief9543 This wasn't a boxing match, it was a War. Better than Ali/Frazier's Thriller in Manila. I gave the fight to Nelson because he had a little better defense than Fenech. How Fenech won 3 titles with his straight forward stand up style is amazing to me. It just goes to show that heart and grit is sometimes more important than natural skills. Jeff was truly the greatest Australian fighter of all times.🥊🥊🇦🇺👍
@@boxingchief9543 well, he's now won that recognition. Jeff finally gets his belt.
@@boxingchief9543 Well so much for your "NEVER" prediction 😀
That was one thing I remember about Nelson, he always had plenty of excuses if things didn't go his way. But credit where due, what you said about him defending his titles in the backyards of his opponents is correct, not many do that. Full marks to him for that.
I remember this fight well. Poor Jeff was coming off a 2 year lay off from injury but yet fought like he had never left the sport.His speed and fitness was incredible. Nelson had no chance of keeping up with him.yet remarkably won this fight.Thanks to the corrupt Don King!
@Jeff Green yeah blind corrupt judges.Nothing new in the land of vegas!
What a fighter Fenech was. Nobody else ever came close to doing this to Azumah. And he was clearly robbed.
correction, Sanchez did much more than that
Sanchez would have ended fenech
Azumah knocked out Fenech in the rematch!! Don't forget !!
Sanchez ko Nelson in 14 in his last fight before his auto accident took his life.
@@blackwidowsm it was actually 15 and not to take anything from Sanchez, Nelson took that fight on a 2 week notice.
This is what we call boxing
Well Fenech finally got what he always deserved. His fourth world title.
Brilliant Boxing i take my hat off to both of them can't beat the old school
Great highlights as usual jimmy
Nelson could never admit he really lost this fight, I lost some respect for him due to that.
i would have lost respect for nelson if he hadnt give him a rematch - but he did in Fenechs backyard and he made no mistake that 2nd day !
It is too bad that Nelson was not man enough to give Salvador Sanchez credit for giving Nelson his first ass kicking.
@@PJP812 you have watched to many rocky movies and the are good movies
And you think Nelson lost this fight? Were you watching another movie all together?
@@themotivatortv who are you answering with your text?
There have been some corrupt decisions in the history of boxing and this one has to be added to the upper parts of the canon. What an absolute disgrace, judges. Azumah was schooled.
Rematch settled it.
Fight in daylight. Proper old school.
I remember this was one of the biggest robberies Don King pulled out of his ass. Fenech was the clear winner and if it had gone one more round, Nelson would have picking his off the canvas.
Mark Garduno you the biggest lier, a Zuma won by crucial points
@@theophilusniilamptey8519 go to bed mark. . I've watched this fight countless times ."technically " Jeff landed way more. Had way more in the tank & 20 seconds more nighty night nelson. Not sure if you were born back then but Dodgy Don was making his mark in the world.
SO TRUE! FENECH BEAT HIS ASS. GREAT FIGHT BETWEEN TWO WARRIORS. BOXING HAS ALWAYS BEEN CROOKED. ONE GOOD EXAMPLE HERE!🥊🥊🥊
Liar.....
@@richardrobinson1697 ..... Now that is a BIG LIE..... azumah was on the ropes most of the time.... fenech was pushing him too much.... like it was wrestling
these two would dominate the division today
Undercard of Tyson-Ruddock II, it stole the show, the judges stole the win
I don’t understand y Fennech was allowed to be so pushy use his head, shoulders and forearms, and hold and hit etc… really takes away from a good fight.
14:23 Don King " Return Match dont worry" Fenech " No, Fuck you".
Fenech was the most evasive fighter I have ever seen. Won this fight easy. Nelson swinging away and rarely landing effective punchers
One of the best fights of that time and he got the win that day but for the record it was awarded to Jeff not long ago just the hurt on Jeff's face even the callers r lost with the call..
both true gutsy champions, but fenech was the winner on points, nelson was out , but would refuse to go down, true warrior v relentless warrior
fenech triple weight division world champ, what about nelson ?
best inside fighter i have ever seen Fenech
I thought Chavez Sr & Duran were better inside fighters than Fenech
Duran! Not even close.
@beat peace I've watched most of Fench's fights. No doubt he was a great inside fighter and was able to cut the ring better than most fighter's I've seen, but when it comes to inside fighting, JC & Duran were next level. Watch Chavez vs Rosario, then watch Duran vs Leonard I. Those are the 2 best in fighting clinics in the history of boxing IMO.
@@stevecvino I don't know of one boxing analyst, expert, professional fighter or ex fighter that would rank Fenech up there with Duran. Roberto was a once in a lifetime fighter
@beat peace P4P, Taylor might've been the fastest fighter in boxing history. Fenech never fought anyone like that. But here is the post fight medical report from the fight doctor. Does this sound like Chavez never got near him??
[Dr. Flip Homansky, who examined Taylor following the fight and immediately sent him to the hospital, summarized his injuries by saying "Meldrick suffered a facial fracture, he was urinating pure blood, his face was grotesquely swollen... this was a kid who was truly beaten up to the face, the body, and the brain". Taylor also showed signs of disorientation and short-term memory loss common to head injuries and concussions. ]
Jeffy won this fight but got ripped off with a draw. He hadn't fought hardly for 2 years and performed well but his timing was off. Also Zuma is world class and looked great until round 3, then he couldn't cope with the pressure. Some people think it was close, but Jeff battered him. He was never the same after this fight. The hunger and fierce determination was gone. He said he didn't train hard enough for the rematch and thought he was invincible. Paid the price dearly and credit to Zuma for training hard and got the win. The 3rd fight was a joke. Great fight this one, watched it a thousand times and still enjoy it. Cheers
I thought Jeff did enough on work rate to win the fight, but I wouldn't say he was winning by a landslide. He was taking punishment in the exchanges, at the same time, he was out brawling Azumah with the cleaner and deceive blows. In their second fight, Azumah looked more organized, better technically and managed to get more power into his shots leading to three knockdowns and the eventual stoppage. You're right, Jeff should have won their first fight.
The third fight was indeed a joke. Azuma wanted some money to fun his boxing club so he intentionally allowed fenech to win that fight
Azumah had malaria during this fight but still fought. Before the second fight, he said he will knock Jeff out and he did.
Jeff's reaction after the decision was announced, swayed his fans.
Off night for Azumah. He proved it in the rematch.
Fenech's defence was poor in this fight. He dominated, but he allowed Nelson to win points with sloppy defence where Nelson would sneak a punch when Fenech was pummelling him and not putting up his guard for the counter.
He was being trapped.
Azumah calls it setup.
@@wilsonattitoe3997 Nah, Fenech beat the shit out of him and won the fight. It just wasn't called that way.
was heart breaking that was. don king special
I think word got around there about this fight because the seats where filling fast during it.
They'd be coming in for the main event Tyson v Ruddock
heaps of celebs ringside
It would have been nice if he was compensated for the 30 odd years that the belt was stolen from him. Well done Jeff for not jumping the ropes and ko ing the judges.
Fenech was never the same after being robbed in this fight. To watch the best Jeff Fenech doco, watch it on this link. czcams.com/video/pppZNcZz2gk/video.html It's the best one out there.
Thanks Johno Hill so much for sharing the link to the Jeff Fenech documentary. Just watched it, great stuff. Proud to be Australian 🙂
Perfect example of a bad decision ruining a career
Fenech should have got this decision no doubt but by F**K the professor made no mistake in Fenech`s back yard in the rematch
I believed Fenech was the clear winner that day. It was a robbery that it was declared a draw. I also believed it revealed that Nelson was finally slipping. The second fight was the complete opposite. Still, you have to give Fenech his due with this one.
Don King was Nelsons promotor. Don King rigged that fight because there is no way Nelson beat Fenech . When Jeff hit Azumah with that vicious right in the 3rd , it totally changed the whole fight . The second and third judges must have gotten a decent pay off from King
Fenech won easily.
Completely robbed
How can a guy win so clearly and get a split draw? Even 115-113 isn't accurate
Azumah is a Legend
the 2 judges who got it horrible wrong should have been banned for life after this result.
These guys aint backing down, theyve got a granite chin theyre giving and taken shots. Fenech cutting off that ring on Nelson.
Azumah Nelson vs Pacquiao. Haven't heard any discussion on that dream match
That was a fight!!
Sanchez knocked him down at least four times at the end they had Nelson winning.
Wrong fight lol In this video, Azumah was fighting Jeff Fenech.
@@Aerojet01 hes referring to other corrupt decisions going Neslosn way also
this is boxing wow
Jeff won by a mile thank god they Gave him his 4 belt 31 years later
Fenech backed up Nelson almost every round of the entire entire fight! In the final round Fenech was ahead on points and finished up by nearly knocking out Nelson. Robbed big time!!!!!
Proper boxers. Guards always up and toe to toe
boxing corruption at its best... fenech was robbed ..
People make their own highlights, if Jeff really won the fight, what happened when the Rematch was fought in his hometown Australia?
YEAH and what happened in the third fight? OH thats right Fenech won that one also.
@@robertwelch24 hahaahaahahaha do you call that exhibition match a fight?are you serious ?
@@awuahcurtis It does not take away that Fenech clearly won the first fight.
@@bender4751 fair comment, I won't be mad if it had gone for Jeff neither will I scream robbery if it went to Nelson but you let's say it was a robbery, what happened to Jeff when he had the chance to redeem himself in his home country, in front of his countrymen in Australia? That speaks a lot about who Azumah Nelson is.
@benicecunt o.k. what do you mean?
Only winner that night was Don King. Fenech was l Legend. So strong for his size just had brittle hands.
Looking at this now I had it 8-2 Fenech with 2 split rounds
war of attrition!!!!!!
what a momentous brawl, shame of a decision
Wish ike quartey had learn some of azumas fighting skills,he knows how to use both hands knowd when to go to the body and knows how to protect him self!
Both are Great Fighters But Fenech was Clearly the Better Boxer on this Night, This was The Beginning of a 5 yr Period that Led to My Walking Away from Boxing, You Shouldn't Have to Duk-Koo-Kim a Man to Guarantee a WIN !! What Good Are Judges Who Know Before Round 1 Starts Who the Winner is Gonna Be, After Watching on Pay per View the Robbery of Meldrick Taylor a Loss that Literally Destroyed His Career and Broken His Spirit I Quit Watching and Contributing $$ to the Rigged World of Boxing, Its to Painful to Watch a Man Give His ALL and SACRIFICE SO MUCH to BE ROBBED & BROKEN by PAID OFF SCUMBAGS WHO HAVE NO CAPACITY to JUDGE REAL MEN !!
im sorry to read your insight , lancer
I watched until the bradley pac and mayweather pac scorecards.
Bob arum and don king almost destroyed boxing.
@@deadarmd Boxing is an Art that takes years and years of dedication to master to simply rob someone anyone of their canvas masterwork is a Sin

That's not true..

You're obviously a complete dickhead who knows fuck all about boxing.
Worst...worst...Worst ever corrupt boxing judges.........the whole crowd plus commentators knew who won.......10 rounds to 2 easily
I’ve never really watched Fenech but I’m not really impressed. He can only fight inside which makes it ugly. He’s left rights are pushed out from in front of him. No leverage. I think a draw was fair
The game was robed for Fenich.All he did was to be pushing Azuma Nelson, flouting rules, it was never a Fair play.
Robaron a Fenech en despoblado ya Nelson iva de salida y casi lo noquean y ni así le dieron el gane a Fenech
Azumah easily won the fight. Jeff was a dirty fighter.

Two solid pros,didn't need the ref,.
No habia visto esta pelea.dspojaron a fenech.azumah al borde del ko. Raund 11 -12.
So many punches Jesus Christ
Sweet jabs from Nelson
Yeah for all of two rounds. Then school opened and he was taken to boxing class.
De la robaron descaradamente
Fenech beat him from piller to post
Biggest ripp off of boxing history !!!!
ความดำ โดนตัด 20 คะแนนก่อนชก..
Jeff won the fight total robbery. Jeff chase Azuma from round one to twelve
You got it wrong
Que robo mas grande Feff Fenech gano lejos
Que buena pelea coño
Azumah reckons he had a little bout of malaria or just got over it for this fight , but fenech won definitely
Nelson had an excuse for every loss or not so good outing.
Azumah got killed.
ESE FENECH EN SU PATRIA ROBO A a MUCHOS ASI QUE AHORA LE TOCO A EL
Jeff fenech vrs Marcos vinasana
Fenech won the fight, convincingly. 1 of the biggest boxing ripoffs ever!
Watched the fight and thought to myself this will be a draw before the scores were given. I've never seen a tear up go on for so long. Surprised no one went down and both are still standing.
If you scored this a draw don king will employ you. Not even close.
