[Eng] The Magic of Boxing?... Interesting Anecdotes [Esp] La Magia del Boxeo?... Anécdotas Interesantes

Active again with all of you my brothers, changing the landscape because from #baseball we are going to #boxing. Yes gentlemen, today with a very varied theme because some important and historical data related to this fabulous #sport will be highlighted. We all know that as in any discipline, in this there are many brands and records that have endured over time and that due to the way fights were fought in previous times, and because of the quality of the fighters, these brands are totally difficult to beat. For example, a Joe Louis who defended his title 25 times. Or a Young Otto who won 42 fights in the first round, tell me if at present a boxer can hardly have a total of 50 fights at most, much less to break this mark. Imagine this Emille Griffith who played more than 300 rounds in title fights, what a crazy truth. If you liked that in this installment, we will meet the first boxer to become champion in 3 different weights. You will also know who was the first left-handed champion in the history of this sport. In addition to that, I will tell you who was declared champion by disqualification of his opponent. And in case you did not know, you will have the honor of learning about the first fight for the title that took place at the Las Vegas Casino. Don't lose track that this is good.

Duran-De Jesús

Nuevamente activos con todos ustedes hermanos míos, cambiando de panorama porque del #beisbol nos vamos al #boxeo. Si señores, el día de hoy con un tema muy variado porque se destacarán unos datos históricos e importantes relacionados a este fabuloso #deporte. Todos sabemos que como en cualquier disciplina, en esta existen muchas marcas y récords que han perdurado en el tiempo y que por la forma como se disputaban las peleas en épocas anteriores, y por la calidad de los luchadores dichas marcas son toalmente difíciles de batir. Por ejemplo un Joe Louis que defendió su título en 25 oportunidades. O un Young Otto quien ganó 42 peleas en el primer asalto, díganme ustedes si a duras penas en la actualidad un boxeador puede tener una totalidad cuando mucho de 50 peleas, mucho menos para llegar a batir esta marca. Imagínense a este Emille Griffith que disputó más de 300 asaltos en peleas por el título, que locura verdad. Si eso les gustó en esta entrega conoceremos al primer boxeador en llegar a ser campeón en 3 pesos distintos. También sabrás quien fue el primer campeón zurdo en la historia de este deporte. Además de ello te diré quién fue declarado campeón por descalificación de su oponente. Y por si no lo sabías tendrás el honor de enterarte de la primera pelea por el título que se dio cita en el Casino de las Vegas. No pierdas la pista que esto está bueno.

#Boxing is so exciting and historic that it attracts masses in an impressive way. This #sport dates back to ancient times where those who were fighting did so with their fists covered with a kind of glove full of nails. Imagine the magnitude of those fights. In the course of history these fights were updated although they were executed with bare hands as did the corduroy John L. Sullivan, who ironically was the last bare fist champion and the first boxer defeated when gloves were used. All of that was in the past, because today those bare-knuckle or bare-knuckle fights have returned through the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, or boxing with bare knuckles. Pure blood is back. Now that you think it is more dangerous to fight with gloves or without them, give me your points of view.

El #boxeo es tan emocionante e histórico que atrae masas de una manera impresionante. Este #deporte data desde la antigüedad donde quienes se enfrentaban lo hacían con sus puños cubiertos de una especie de guante lleno de clavos. Imagínense la magnitud de esas peleas. En el transcurrir de la historia estas peleas fueron actualizándose aunque las mismas se ejecutaban a puño limpio como lo hacía el pana John L. Sullivan, quien irónicamente fue el último campeón a puño desnudo y el primer boxeador derrotado cuando se usaron guantes. Todo eso había quedado en el pasado, porque en la actualidad esas peleas a puño limpio o desnudos han vuelto a través del Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, o boxeo con los nudillos descubiertos. Vuelve la sangre pura. Ahora que opinan ustedes es más peligroso pelear con guantes o sin ellos, denme sus puntos de vista.

Personally, I think glove boxing is more deadly than bare fist. I say this because I have a friend who has done it both ways and he told me that boxing with gloves is more dangerous, since you are receiving blow after blow and the brain moves everywhere like a jelly, so I know They accumulate trauma that converge in irreversible damage. Unlike bare fist boxing, you receive the blows, they still damage you but the impact breaks, the blood drains and the internal damage is less. An example of this is the fight between John L. Sullivan and Jake Kilrain in a 75-round marathon, they imagine giving and receiving fists for hours, I don't even want to think about it. Now friends let's get down to business and what all of you are waiting for. Action.

Sullivan-Kilrain

Personalmente pienso que el boxeo con guantes es más letal que a puño limpio. Digo esto porque tengo un amigo que lo ha hecho de las dos formas y el me comentó que el boxeo con guantes es mas peligroso, ya que vas recibiendo golpe tras golpe y el cerebro se mueve a todos lados como una gelatina, por lo que se van acumulando traumatismos que convergen en daños irreversibles. A diferencia del boxeo a puños desnudos, recibes los golpes, igual te dañan pero el impacto rompe, la sangre drena y el daño interno es menor. Ejemplo de ello la pelea que disputaron John L. Sullivan y Jake Kilrain en un maratón de 75 asaltos, se imaginan dando y recibiendo puños durante horas, no quiero ni pensarlo. Ahora amigos vamos a lo nuestro y a lo que todos ustedes están esperando. Acción.

Al McCoy First Left-Handed Champion in History

Alexander Rudolph or Al Mccoy with a record of 157 fights, of which he won 73 of them, 27 by way of sleep, he lost 51 fights. Although his winning percentage for #ko wasn't overwhelming, he had a crazy left hand. It was then that on April 7, 1914, at the age of 19, he had the opportunity to face George Chip for the middleweight championship. For everyone McCoy had no chance and for the few knockout victories he was unlikely to win and much less for Ko. However, the premise was to win and masterfully. It was then that at the ringing of the bell the fight began with great force, both fighters hit everything but with a few seconds to complete the two minutes of that first round, McCoy attacked Chip throwing a powerful left to the jaw, taking Chip off the ground and sending him straight to sleep. The fight ended and Al McCoy became the first left-handed middleweight champion.

Al McCoy

Al McCoy Primer Campeón Zurdo de la Historia

Alexander Rudolph o Al Mccoy con un récord de 157 peleas, de las cuales obtuvo victoria en 73 de ellas, 27 por la vía del sueño, perdió 51 combates. Aunque su porcentaje de victorias por #ko no fue contundente, tenía una izquierda de locura. Fue entonces cuando el 7 de abril de 1914 a los 19 años de edad tiene la oportunidad de enfrentar a George Chip por el campeonato de los pesos medios. Para todo el mundo McCoy no tenía chance y por las pocas victoria por knockout era poco probable ganar y muchos menos por Ko. Sin embargo, la premisa era ganar y de forma magistral. Fue entonces cuando al sonar de la campana se inicia la pelea con mucha fuerza, ambos púgiles se dan con todo pero faltando pocos segundos para cumplir los dos minutos de ese primer asalto McCoy arremetió contra Chip lanzando un poderoso izquierdazo a la mandíbula despegando a Chip del suelo y mandándolo directamente a dormir. La pelea acabo y Al McCoy se convirtió en el primer campeón zurdo de los pesos medianos.

Bob Fitzsimmons First World Champion in 3 Different Weights

This guy participated in 73 fights, he won 61 of which 57 were for #ko. He lost only 8 times and got 4 draws. This guy in 1880 as an amateur won the middleweight title beating 4 opponents in one night precisely by knockout. Amazing. But this is nothing because professionally he wins the middleweight title by facing Jack Dempsey, remember the one who destroyed the giant Jess Willard. That fight was on January 14, 1891, the day that Dempsey would receive a brutal beating and although he endured much of the fight, he could not take it anymore and succumbed to Bob's fists, falling in round 13. Since that fight, Dempsey's career it would practically be over. The heavyweight championship obtained by Bob was on March 17, 1897 by beating James J. Corbett that same who beat John Sullivan in the first glove match. Corbett, although he had a neat technique with a lot of style, could not stand the huge punch and the rough style of Bob. After several rounds, of punches and counter punches at last in the 14th round Corbett is knocked out so that Bob would become heavyweight champion. This was his second championship division. Title that he would lose to James Jackson Jeffries by ko in round 11 on June 9, 1899. However, to complete the feat he would return on November 25, 1903 when he won the light heavyweight title in a fight that would go to its maximum expression at 20 rounds winning by points. This phenomenon was then the first boxer to win the championship in 3 different divisions, medium, heavy and light heavy. Boy, he fought and fought with the best.

Fitzsimmons-Corbett

Bob Fitzsimmons Primer Campeón Mundial en 3 Pesos Distintos

Este muchachón participó en 73 peleas, ganó 61 de las cuales 57 fueron por #ko. Perdió solo 8 veces y obtuvo 4 empates. Este tipo en 1880 como aficionado ganó el título de peso medio venciendo en una sola noche a 4 rivales precisamente por knockout. Increíble. Pero esto no es nada porque profesionalmente gana el título de peso medio al enfrentar a Jack Dempsey, recuerdan aquel que destrozó al gigante Jess Willard. Ese combate fue el 14 de enero de 1891, día en que Dempsey recibiría una brutal paliza y aunque aguantó gran parte del combate, no pudo más y sucumbió ante los puños de Bob cayendo en el asalto numero 13. Desde esa pelea la carrera de Dempsey prácticamente habría acabado. El campeonato de peso pesado obtenido por Bob fue el 17 de marzo de 1897 al vencer a James J. Corbett ese mismo que le ganó a John Sullivan en el primer encuentro con guantes. Corbett aunque tenía una técnica pulcra con mucho estilo, no soportó la enorme pegada y el estilo tosco de Bob. Luego de varios asaltos, de golpes y contra golpes al fin en el round 14 Corbett es noqueado para que Bob se convirtiera en campeón de peso pesado. Esta era su segunda división campeonil. Título que perdería ante James Jackson Jeffries por ko en el asalto 11 el 9 de junio de 1899. Sin embargo para completar la hazaña regresaría el 25 de noviembre de 1903 cuando gana el título de semi pesado en pelea que se iría a su máxima expresión a 20 rounds ganando por puntos. Este fenómeno fue entonces el primer boxeador en ganar el campeonato en 3 divisiones diferentes, medio, pesado y semipesado. Vaya que si batalló y peleó con los mejores.

First Title Fight Disputed at Caesars Palace Casino in Las Vegas

Inaugurated on August 5, 1966. Boxing events have been held at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas since 1969, when on October 25 amateur bouts were held between teams from the United States and the Soviet Union. The United States dominated with victories of 6 fights to 5. The first professional fight was disputed between the greatest Muhammad There and Joe Bugner on February 14, 1973. At that time, Ali had a record of 40-1-0 with 31 knockouts. . His rival had 43-4-1, 27 knockout. It was a tough fight but Ali won by unanimous decision. On the other hand, headline fights had already been played but at the Convention Center. Now the fight organized by Don King between Roberto Manos de Piedra Duran and Esteban de Jesús on January 21, 1978 was the first title fight developed in the private casino of such a prestigious hotel. It was the unification fight and here the best lightweight for that moment would come out. Already these two rivals would have met twice with a record of 1 to 1. Duran lost the first in 10 rounds by unanimous decision. In the second, Duran wins in round 11 by #tko. And in the final fight of the trilogy in 1978 Duran won by #tko in round 12. At that time, Hands of Stone had the record of 63 wins and one loss, precisely against De Jesús. Here, Duran retained The Ring, WBA title and won the WBC Lightweight title. How great the Panamanian.

Gracias hermano. Esa es la idea que todos alimentemos los conocimientos con el aporte de cada uno de nosotros. Saludos hermano

It was really entertaining!

I agree, boxing gloves are way deadlier than bareknuckle fights :)

Cheers!

Thanks for the visit brother. This is how the constant hitting with gloves is leaving irreversible damage. This is accumulating and when they realize there is nothing left to do. In the era of the glove, many fighters have died. Greetings

True to that. CTE is also degrading with time, people never talk about the headaches, the arthrosis, and multiple surgeries (maybe more common in MMA & Muay Thai).

You are very right brother. In the same way, boxing and everything related to martial arts is a dangerous art. However, the spectacular nature of these sports can never be ignored.

Top class post here. I always enioy your boxing posts, that 75 round bout is crazy. Can you imagine what they looked like after it. The term "a face like a burst matress" comes to mind!!

Always grateful for your support brother. Well if the 75-round fight blew you away. Imagine the one that happened in 1893 between Andy Bowen vs. Jack Burke who lasted 110 rounds in 7 hours and 19 minutes. And it ended because the referee stopped her, the fight was tied. This fight was another madness. I don't want to think about how those guys turned out. My regards, brother.

Unbelievable stuff really. They must have lost years of old age from that level of pummelling 😲

Who is your favourite boxer of all time?

Without a doubt my idol of all time Muhammad Ali. No other like it has been born.

Ah yes and no one can argue with that choice! He had it all

Boxing is a great sport and one in which we nigerians love so much. That as resulted in us having many legends in the game but in recent time our attentions as been shifted to kick boxing

Well in Nigeria they have Efe Ajagba who started playing soccer. He switched to boxing since 2011. But since 2017 professionally he has fought 15 fights and has won them all. Of them 12 by knockout. And of those Ko 8 they have been between the 1 and 3 rounds. His countryman promises this heavyweight. His right hand is a phenomenal face breaker.

I once read about about him but Nigerians are more focused on Isreal adesanya in UFC and Usman also.. I feel more Nigerians are coming up the rank in that sport.. many have ditched boxing due to the poor management they get from the sports ministry

But this point of support is essential. If the government does not support its athletes, I doubt very much that they will be able to advance, so they look for another way to develop in other areas such as the ones you propose in the UFC.
