Roosevelt is one of the first high-profile members of the Harvard Boxing Club. Other prestigious names who were in the ring after class include President JFK and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Norman Miller.\n\nNot many people realize how badass these guys really were. Before JFK was President, he was a World War II hero. Teddy Roosevelt was the leader of the Rough Riders, the most famous American regiment in the Spanish-American War of 1898. He survived the infamous San Juan Hill death trap by leading 500 men headfirst into a charge that ultimately won the battle.\n\nIn another demonstration of pure grit, Roosevelt finished a campaign speech with a bullet wound after being shot. Roosevelt also famously had a boxing ring in the White House where he would spar regularly. During one heated bout, he got hit in the eye and tore his retina, eventually losing vision in that eye.","When did the Harvard boxing program start?",{"_uid":1735,"answer":1736,"question":1737,"component":670},"9fc8f069-63e4-44ec-b255-50678bc91603","Fast forward to 1937, and college boxing had become a big deal at Harvard. Boxing was at the same level as all the major collegiate sports. The typical opponents were Harvard rivals at the time including MIT, Yale, and Dartmouth.\n\nIt was around this time that both JFK and Norman Mailer were attending Harvard and were part of the boxing program. Many view this time as something of a Golden Era for the Harvard Boxing Team.\n\nIn 1941, a year after JFK graduated, the U.S. entered World War II. At that time, Harvard made it mandatory for all undergraduates to participate in intercollegiate boxing training as a way of improving their wartime fitness.\n\nTo bolster the program, Harvard brought in the legendary boxing champion Tommy Rawson. He led the program well into his 90s. In the 1940s and ‘50s, many of these collegiate matches would draw crowds of 10,000 people. In college sports popularity, this made boxing second only to football at that time.","Was JFK on the Harvard boxing team?",{"_uid":1739,"answer":1740,"question":1741,"component":670},"e7265ce2-f47c-4aae-bde8-0687813b47a1","In 1960, following the death of a university student from injuries received in the ring, the NCAA made the decision to do away with boxing. This is even though football has seen similar tragedies over the years – and is scientifically proven to be more dangerous than boxing.\n\nAfter the ban and up to today, the Harvard Boxing Club still exists as an unofficial sports club.

He notes that the science of boxing and the engagement in pugilism are not only natural emotional reactions, but could even be described as “humane”; it takes courage and character to engage in the act, as well as mental fortitude. This concept is far from the “violent” and “savage” acts we usually associate with the term today.","What Is the Science of Boxing?",{"_uid":1928,"answer":1929,"question":1930,"component":670},"9b36e15c-02e1-4ec5-8aef-02108421817b","It wasn't until a half century later, in 1813, that the great boxing author and journalist, Pierce Egan, gave true meaning to the term, the “sweet science” when he referred to the sport of boxing as the “sweet science of bruising.” Egan also came to the same conclusion as Godfrey had years earlier: that fighting (and thus boxing) is indeed an inherited, natural-born instinct and in our DNA. In his series of boxing-related articles titled, Boxiana, Egan observed the resentment that some individuals felt growing up. They felt they had been slighted by society, and as a result, this resentment would manifest into a necessary means of physical retribution. However, through evolution, it was modern Man who was able to check his “coolness, checking the fiery passion and rage” which differed from his ancestors before him, free from primitive actions, thus forming boxing into this “sweet science.” Finally, in 1949, the boxer/author A.J. Liebling introduced the term into modern times and gave credit to Egan. In his novel, The Sweet Science, Liebling writes about the golden era of boxing and the science of boxing as a way of life.\\n\\nWhile Godfrey and Egan may have made a great argument for the actual scientific evidence of boxing and how it may have been directly related to our inherited nature, Liebling took a more modern-day approach to the “sweet science” and how it is perceived today.\\n\\nOne of the best examples of the “sweet science of boxing” that Liebling depicts in his novel is the 1955 fight between Archie Moore vs. Rocky Marciano for the heavyweight belt. Liebling describes the styles of the fighters leading up to the fight. He discusses Marciano and his fighting style as this “nature”-inherited style, and remarks that he should not worry about using defense, as it may “spoil his natural prehistoric style.” When speaking of Moore, Liebling describes his fighting style as “nurturing,” explaining that he was a more cerebral fighter who relied on his craft as a boxer and his intelligence, compared to the more savage style of Marciano. However, Marciano would ultimately be the victor. It was this more in-depth look into the “science” behind the fighters as a modern concept that the term “sweet science” came to be as it’s used today. Now when people hear the term, most associate it as relating to the art form of boxing, the fighting styles, and the boxer’s preparation for a fight.","Why is boxing called The Sweet Science?",{"_uid":1932,"answer":1933,"question":1934,"component":670},"ea20f799-03e3-489d-a1ed-321041134212","These days, the modern boxer is required to not only be savage by nature, but also be methodical, tactical, cunning, and scientific in their approach. Muhammad Ali, the greatest boxer to ever live, may have also been one of the best when it comes down to the science of boxing. Even before he would step inside the ring to fight an opponent, he would get inside their heads, trash-talking in the lead-up to the fight. As a result, a lot of his opponents would begin to doubt their abilities pre-fight, and the outcome usually favored Ali. Another classic “sweet science” Ali moment came when he knocked out heavy-favorite George Foreman in the Rumble in the Jungle using the “rope-a-dope” technique. Foreman wore himself out, throwing damageless punches against a defensive Ali who utilized the ring’s ropes as a backrest. A gassed Foreman was ultimately knocked out in the eighth round.\\n\\nMany other boxers have been able to utilize the “sweet science” to benefit their careers as well. Floyd Mayweather, Jr., perhaps the best defensive fighter of all time with a perfect 50-0 record, is extremely calculating and utilizes the first few rounds of each fight to gauge and understand his opponents’ strengths and weaknesses. He scientifically dissects each opponent mid-fight and the result has always favored him. Lennox Lewis is even quoted as saying that “In boxing, you create a strategy to beat each new opponent, it's just like chess.” And that truly is art in and of itself. The “chess match” between boxing opponents is much more than just two individuals swinging wildly at each other in a square. The finesse, the slickness, the swagger, and the art form, all incorporate the essence that is boxing. It is a science, and it truly is sweet.","What are examples of the “Sweet Science” of boxing?",{"name":534,"created_at":535,"published_at":536,"updated_at":537,"id":538,"uuid":539,"content":1936,"slug":534,"full_slug":553,"sort_by_date":48,"position":554,"tag_list":1948,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":556,"first_published_at":557,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1949,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":541,"name":542,"category":1937,"component":39,"meta_info":1945,"block_image":1946,"cover_image":1947,"internal_notes":7},{"name":468,"created_at":469,"published_at":470,"updated_at":471,"id":472,"uuid":473,"content":1938,"slug":468,"full_slug":570,"sort_by_date":48,"position":86,"tag_list":1943,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":572,"first_published_at":573,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1944,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":475,"name":476,"topics":1939,"component":118,"meta_info":1940,"meta_title":7,"block_image":1941,"cover_image":1942,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[484,512,539],{"_uid":560,"title":561,"plugin":43,"description":562},{"id":564,"alt":565,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":565,"filename":566,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":568,"alt":565,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":565,"filename":569,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":544,"title":545,"plugin":43,"description":546},{"id":548,"alt":542,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":542,"filename":549,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":551,"alt":542,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":542,"filename":552,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],"556f66aa-ba69-478f-94b7-752150a263c0",{"type":739,"content":1952},[1953,1958,1969,1974,1996,2000,2004,2018,2022,2026,2030,2044,2048,2052,2057,2061,2088,2103,2108],{"type":748,"attrs":1954,"content":1955},{"level":750},[1956],{"text":1957,"type":746},"When Did Boxing Start?",{"type":742,"content":1959},[1960,1962,1967],{"text":1961,"type":746},"For as long as humans have been on Earth, there has been fighting--fighting mother nature and the elements, fighting for survival, and of course, fighting one another.

However, Marciano would ultimately be the victor. It was this more in-depth look into the “science” behind the fighters as a modern concept that the term “sweet science” came to be as it’s used today.
