Did you know Boxing was actually a part of the ancient Olympic Games?

Boxing was actually a part of the ancient Olympic Games from 688 BC, making it one of the oldest sports in the world.

Originally, the Greeks fought with strips of leather wrapped around their hands for protection and to increase the impact of their punches.

This tradition has evolved significantly over the centuries into the highly regulated sport we know today, with protective gloves and strict rules to ensure the safety of the fighters.
