Boxing was long viewed sickly. Generally forbidden by law in earlier days, the fighting was usually done with bare fists, and matches often lasted forty or fifty rounds.

In 1882 John L. Sullivan, a fighter of great power, won the world heavy-weight championship of Paddy Ryan in a bare-fisted battle market by hitting, scratching, and biting without any rule. Five years later, while fighting Patsy Cardiff at Minneapolis, Sullivan broke his right arm in the third round, but he continued fighting to the sixth round and won. In 1889, Sullivan defeated Jake Kilrain with his bare fists in another championship fight, winning twenty thousand dollars and a diamond prize medal. His admirers talked of choosing him to run for the next governor, but he traveled to Australia for a boxing tour instead, coming back only to lose his title in a twenty-one round match with a young California named James J. Corbett.

Gentleman Jim’s victory in this match marked a turning point, for it showed scientific boxing was over strength. But Corbett’s title ended in 1897, when another boxer, Bob Fitzsimmons, in less than three seconds, achieved his goal and then Fitzsimmons knocked out an Irishman, won him heavyweight championship of the world and invented terrible “solar plexus punch”.

68. Boxing matches in the early days were________.

A. short and bloody B. usually spare-time competitions

C. governed by strict rules D. cruel

69. Sullivan was so popular that his admirers________.

A. encouraged him to be a governor

C. advised him to take a boxing tour of Australia

D. encouraged him to win another championship
