Other Sports Briefs Boxing: Staples Center makes $20 million offer for Pacquiao-Mayweather Seattle Times Newspaper

By: Aaron Snowell (Trainer Of Champions)
Boxing today is a multimillion-dollar sport that has successfully captured the interest of millions of people worldwide. However, boxing today is mired with stories, controversies, and contradictions and of course, enmities. Maybe the very fact that it is a brutal combat sport plays an important role in creating the hype that exists around boxing today.

Boxing is one of the oldest contact sports known to human history. While it cannot be said for certain whether boxing back then was a regular sport with rules and regulations, evidence that boxing existed are found in the archaeological findings of the Egyptians, Berbers, Sumerian, Greek and Mediterranean civilizations. Other evidences of boxing has found as early as 1500 BC and 3000 BC. Therefore one can safely say that the origin of boxing was around 3000 BC.

Boxing, also known as pugilism or the sweet science, has roots that go all the way back to ancient Greece and Rome. Back then fights would take place without gloves but with just leather taped on to the hands. This resulted in even more gruesome, deadly battles. The first documented "boxing match" took place in 1681 in Britian when the Duke of Albemarle engineered a bout between his butler and his butcher.
in the coming years, bare-knuckle boxing contests would be held in ampitheatres all over England. Jack Boughton, also known as "the Father of Boxing," developed the first set of rules for the sport and published them in 1743 as a result from a bout where he killed his opponent in 1741.
he most revolutionary change in the sport came in 1865 when John Sholto Douglass, the Eighth Marquess of Queensbury, drew up new rules of boxing which basically transformed the sport into what it is today. He is regarded as the "Patron Saint" of boxing and some of the most significant changes were three-minute roundsand the regulated use of approved boxing gloves. You can read the whole set of 12 rules here.
At this point the popularity of boxing continued to spread. It was included in the St. Louis Olympic Games in 1904 for the first time ever. From here on, talented fighters from all over the world would meet and fight for sanctioned titles all throughout the 20th Century and into the 21st.
