L21-1：DanielMendoza
Boxing matcheswere very popular in England two hundred years ago. In those days, boxers foughtwith bare fists for prize money. Because of this, they were known as'prizefighters'. However, boxing was very crude, for there were no rules and aprizefighter could be seriously injured or even killed during a match. One ofthe most colorful figures in boxing history was Daniel Mendoza, who was born in1764. The use of gloves was not introduced until 1860, when the Marquis ofQueensberry drew up the first set of rules. Though he was technically aprizefighter, Mendoza did much to change crude prizefighting into a sport, forhe brought science to the game. In his day, Mendoza enjoyed tremendouspopularity. He was adored by rich and poor alike.
Mendoza rose tofame swiftly after a boxing match when he was only fourteen years old. Thisattracted the attention of Richard Humphries who was then the most eminentboxer in England. He offered to train Mendoza and his young pupil was quick tolearn. In fact, Mendoza soon became so successful that Humphries turned againsthim.
