Слайд 2 BOXING
The earliest evidence of boxing dates back to Egypt around 3000 BC. The sport
was introduced to the ancient Olympic Games by the Greeks in the late 7th century BC, when soft leather thongs were used to bind boxers' hands and forearms for protection.
Слайд 3 British boxing
The first documented account of a bare-knuckle fight in England appeared
in 1681 in the London Protestant Mercury, and the first English bare-knuckle champion was James Figg in 1719. This is also the time when the word "boxing" first came to be used. This earliest form of modern boxing was very different.
