The fight lasted rich 110 rounds for a total of 7 hours and 19 minutes. “No competition” was declared, because the boxer could not continue after 111. the car.

Then, 19. The century saw the adaptation of the ‘Rules of Queensbury entered (who was through the lawsuit, sent Oscar Wildea to his grip in Read Gaol Prison)

Cute science was born. Strategic tactics were encouraged by the defense defense, smart leg and an idea of ​​omitted and outlets of opponents, who brought new dynamics to a previously one-dimensional, brutup affair.

Of course, it’s not without your critics, and time will say whether it’s great for sports in the end.
