Chris Eubank vs. Michael Watson II, fought on September 21, 1991, at White Hart Lane in London, is remembered as one of the most dramatic and ultimately tragic bouts in British boxing history.

Contested for the vacant WBO Super-Middleweight Championship, the rematch followed a highly controversial majority decision victory for Eubank just three months prior.

Moving up a weight class, Michael Watson completely outboxed Eubank for the vast majority of the fight, controlling the pace and leading comfortably on all three judges’ scorecards.

In the 11th round, Watson knocked Eubank down with a powerful overhand right and it appeared the Londoner was moments away from winning the world title, and a much deserved victory against the Brighton man. But, having managed to beat the count, Eubank connected with a devastating uppercut to all-but-end the contest.

Michael, shockingly, was allowed to continue into the 12th and rose from his corner visibly dazed and on shaky legs. with the referee trying to get the two to touch gloves; the pair were then waved on with a Eubank flurry ending the bout just 29 seconds into the final round.

In the seconds following the stoppage, Watson collapsed with no paramedics – or oxygen – at White Hart Lane, with a half hour wait before arriving at the hospital.

The 26-year-old spent 40 days in a coma and underwent SIX life-saving brain surgeries as he miraculously survived, with permanent brain-damage and partial paralysis the long-term effects.

The tragedy revolutionised ringside medical care in British boxing. The British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC) mandated that standard protocols must include a team of doctors, an anesthetist, an oxygen supply, and an ambulance parked on-site at every professional event, saving countless lives in subsequent decades.

Watson sued the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBoC) for negligence and won damages reputedly of around £1 million. The High Court ruled that the BBBoC was responsible for medical provision at a fight and that administering oxygen and resuscitation on site would have made a considerable difference to Watson’s outcome. Mr Justice Kennedy said that the board was “in breach of its duty to Mr Watson”.

The judge said that this was “sadly a long way short of the damages that [Watson] would have received had the defendants had the money or had they been insured”.
