And today’s boxing has many similarities to the ancient boxing. In ancient times many boxers died, because they filled the boxing gloves with iron, but now boxers don’t use iron gloves anymore. Now they only use gloves and helmets and some other equipment. In 1743, a boxer from England named Broughton made the new rules. These rules soon became the standard for all boxing matches in England. Some of the rules were: there is a timed count when a boxer is knocked down; the introduction of a judge; and no boxer shall be struck after a knockdown. Later in 1867, the famous Queensberry rules were made. Every boxer had to wear leather gloves in competitions. The ring was about 7 meters long and 7 meters wide. And rounds were not longer than 3 minutes. Boxers were divided into different groups according to their weight. And two boxers in a competition should have similar weight. Boxing was considered a gentleman’s sport -the noble art of self-defense. Every boxer tried his best to hit the opponent without being hit back. Today, boxing is a popular sport both for women and men, and its rules continue to improve. Boxing is good both for people’s body and for their mind. It helps people stay in shape and have a strong mind both inside and outside the ring. Notes:
