Description
On December 20, 1963 at the Civic Arena in Pittsburgh World Welterweight Champion Emile Griffith moved up to the middleweight division and took on hard punching contender, Rubin “Hurricane” Carter. Griffith took Carter lightly. It was a mistake. Carter hurt Griffith early in the first round, and catching him on the break, put him down twice before the fight was stopped in the same round. Offered here is the very rare, original, official program for this event. To add to its rarity, it has been signed by Emile Griffith!!
