The History of Boxing
This serves as a supplement to my podcast. Below, you will find an extensive history of the sport of boxing. I had a lot of fun researching this and learned things I had never even heard of before. (Pro Tip: one really cool story you should check out is in the second timeline under 1936, you won't regret reading that one). I think to understand anything reviewing the historical value is so important to deepening your knowledge. Knowledge is key for readers to contextualize and internalize the information within my podcast. So therefore, if a reader of this portfolio knows nothing about boxing, hopefully they can learn at least something by checking out the history, and in turn, perhaps they will develop a increased appreciation for the sport overall. The history will create a foundation for understanding and appreciating the sport, but my goal is that the podcast deepens the fundamentals of this basic understanding.
