Now famous for being the boxing match that Tupac attended before being gunned down, it is often forgotten that the Mike Tyson - Bruce Seldon fight was a massive, star-studded event in Las Vegas, bringing in over $100M in revenue in PPV revenue (adjusted for inflation) making it among the top 25 fights of all time from that perspective. 

Tupac and Suge Knight ringside:

Tyson wore his standard black trunks with familiar patches to those in past fights:

However he also had a small logo on his back right thigh that was less typical for Tyson:

He wore his usual black shoes

and both fighters wore red gloves by a brand that I do not recognize and cannot make out - does anyone know what make these are?

Bruce Seldon had a nice white, red and blue set -

and a nice little red and blue action along the side:

He wore white socks and footwear:

The fight didn’t last that long. Seldon took 8 years off and then attempted a comeback at age 37 - boxing from 2004 through 2009 until he retired. This was the last time Tyson would win a title fight (he had vacated his WBC belt to take Seldon’s WBA belt). He would lose it in his next fight to Evander Holyfied (see SMF Classics Volume XIX), and he would not wear a belt again. He retired in 2005.
