Boxing Runs Deep In Our Blood
Our History - Jack "Duggan" Fearns
The Fighing Irish
Early boxing had no written rules. There were no weight divisions or round limits, and no referee. In general, it was extremely chaotic.
In the British Isles Peter Corcoran from Kildare, Ireland was the British Bare Knuckle Champion from 1771-1776. Duggan Fearns was Champion in 1779. By the middle nineteenth century the Irish were starting to show their strength. Yankee Sullivan was champion from 1851-1853. Tim Collins and Bat Mullins were Lightweight Champions of England. Joe Colburn, From Armagh, Northern Ireland became Champion of the World.
