OK.. so in celebrating Muhammad Ali's birthday today and teaching my boys about him I found that ESPN Classic was showing a rerun of the 1972 title bout with Jurgin Blin. Somewhere near the end of round 2 my ever questioning eldest son asks "Why do they call it boxing?"
OK... sooo "I really have no idea.. let me see what I can learn." NOTHING! Lots of jibberish about boxing day, someother stuff about the history, but nothing about the names origin as boxing.
Now I'm turning it loose on the intellect of ScubaBoard... I dunno.. how about yawl? Why do they call it boxing?
