John Broughton, 1822. Creator: Robert Cooper
John Broughton, 1822. Portrait of Jack Broughton (c1703-1789), an English bare-knuckle boxer or pugilist. Broughton staged boxing exhibition at his amphitheatre in Hanway Road in London, and was the first person to codify a set of boxing rules. These were regarded as definitive for around 100 years until the development of the Marquess of Queensberry rules in the 1860s. From " Wonderful Characters: Comprising Memoirs and Anecdotes of the Most Remarkable Persons of Every Age and Nation", Vol. III, by Henry Wilson. [J. Robins and Co. Albion Press, London, 1821]
