Boxing is a combat sport where two fighters matched in weight engage in strikes only with the fists. Professional Boxers will fight a duration of 3 minute rounds with a 1 minute rest period anywhere from 4 to 10 rounds and 12 rounds for a title match. A fighter can when several ways. One, by Knockout (KO), which occurs if the fighters is knocked down and unable to get up before the count of ten. Two, by Technical knockout (TKO), where the fighter is deemed too injured to continue. And lastly, if the fight is not stopped before the agreed number of rounds, the winner is determined by the judges decision on the score cards.
Fist fighting contests first appeared on ancient Sumerian, Egyption and Minoan wall art. The first historical records of boxing as a formal sport were provided by the ancient Greeks, who coded a formal set of rules. Modern boxing, or Western boxing, evolved in Europe, particularly in Great Britain.
