There's evidence that Boxing existed long ago, circa 1500-3000 B.C but it was not called "boxing" and did not have a name.

It wasnt until the 16th century England that it was revitalised and given the name "boxing" and also "bare knuckle boxing" and "prizefighter" by an English bare knuckle boxer named John Chambers.Then the English gave it rules (those rules still stand today) Those rules are "The Marquess of Queensbury rules" and were also created there. So the English get the credit for inventing "Modern Boxing" that we all know today.

The first ever documented boxing match was in 16th century in England.

Although forms of fist fighting have been around centurys the first ever recorded boxing match was in England in the 16th century.

Later around the 17th century England it actually got its name "boxing" it also became known as "bare knuckle boxing" and "Prizefighter" and the champion was an Englishman named James Figg.

Later in the 17th century a English heavyweight boxer by the name of Jack Broughton gave boxing some rules.

Those rules then changed in 1838 to "London Prize Ring rules"

Then in a British man named John Chambers in 1867 gave boxing the new rules that we still use to this very day "Marquees of Queensberry Rules" The rules were published under the patronage of the Marquees Of Queensberry, whose name has always been associated with them and John Chambers went down in the boxing hall of fame as the creater of Modern Boxing.

The true roots of Kickboxing can be found to date back 2000 years ago in Far East Asia, where Muay Thai Kickboxing was commonly practiced as a self-defense discipline. However it gradually became more of a sport over the years. Thai boxing soon became the most common and popular fighting sport in Asia. MuayThai - Kickboxing was controlled by the Thailand government, under the name of WMTC (World MuayThai Council). The main proponent that gave way to the rise of Kickboxing was Bruce Lee, making the link with the United States, making way for the future of International Kickboxing. By the late Twentieth century the sport Kickboxing was starting to take its own original form. The strong urge for a Full contact sport, overtaking the rigid rules and boundaries of Karate, led to an all- new evolved version of Full contact Kickboxing.

I think that Benny Urquidez a full contact karate fighter fought a Muai Thai fighter, and both camps discussed rules for the fight which included low kicks which you wouldent get in full contact karate, and exculed knees and elbows which you would get in Thai boxing. The rules for that fight became the rules for kickboxing. Kickboxing is basically karate kicks with boxing alot of martial arts will argue that they have the best style of kicking ie karate, tai kwan do, kung fu etc this is still up for debate but there is no debate on what is the best form of hand fighting its boxing with nothing else coming close.

Much of the basis of kick boxing is from Thailand. Muy Thai is many centuries old and was practiced by ancient Thai warriors. With some modifications to the rules, it can be seen in the ring in much of the world.
