The great George Dixon retained the world featherweight crown #OnThisDay in 1899 with a 20-round points victory over Kid Broad at the Olympic AC in Buffalo, New York.

Legendary World Flyweight Champion Jimmy Wilde, aka "The Mighty Atom", "The Ghost With A Hammer In His Hand" and "The Tylorstown Terror", was born in Wales #OnThisDay in 1892.

Salvador Sánchez, 1980s featherweight champion and one of Mexico's greatest fighters of all time, smacks a speed bag in the gym.

Great call if you picked Bivol to win (based on his ability not your dislike for Canelo).

Another great ring announcement "the former WBO regional heavyweight champion".

😂😂😂 let’s go @jakepaul

39 yrs ago May 1: Edwin Rosario outpoints Jose Luis Ramirez over 12, wins vacant WBC 135lb title, Roberto Clemente Coliseum, San Juan. Undefeated (21-0) powerpuncher “Chapo” - called “a Duran for the 80s” - builds lead & fades late vs Mexican vet before hanging on for close nod.

Taylor vs Serrano felt like a paradigm shift for women's boxing. It delivered in a major way on the biggest stage.

Was anybody else expecting to hear "I'll moida da bum"? 🤦‍♂️

It was a worthy MSG event and I hope people take the ladies a lot more seriously as they should. This can only be good for our sport. Respect to all ladies. They put it all on the line

Uppercuts were the talk of last weekend and here’s a man who had a vicious uppercut… Look at some of the uppercuts Lennox Lewis landed on Michael Grant when blasting him away 22 years ago today. Big George “He’s broke his leg!” 🤣 #boxing

"Arch Stanton" What's the film?
