Paperback. Discover the fascinating journey of boxing from ancient fistfighting to the modern global sport known as the sweet science.Boxing 101: History of Boxing is an accessible introduction to the people, rules, rivalries, and cultural changes that transformed fistfighting into one of the world's most enduring combat sports.

Sullivan, Jack Johnson, Sugar Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Floyd Mayweather, and other champions who defined their eras.- How boxing became a major business shaped by championship belts, promoters, sanctioning bodies, media, and global audiences.- The ways boxing has reflected larger social issues, including race, class, celebrity, culture, and changing ideas about sport and entertainment.- Why the sweet science continues to attract fighters and fans generations after its earliest contests.From ancient Olympic fistfighting and bare-knuckle battles to heavyweight icons, modern champions, and the worldwide boxing industry, this book provides a clear chronological journey through the moments that shaped the sport.Perfect for boxing fans, sports-history readers, and newcomers who want to understand how the rules, fighters, and traditions of the past created the boxing world we know today.Step into the history behind the gloves and discover how the sweet science became a global phenomenon.
