Mendoza vs. Humphry: A Historical Boxing Match in 1796 This image captures the intensity and drama of an historic boxing match between two legendary pugilists, Mendoza and Humphry, which took place on March 23, 1796. The photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the world of early boxing and the fierce competition that defined it. Born in Spain, Mendoza, also known as the 'Gentleman of Arms,' was a skilled swordsman and a formidable boxer. He was a popular figure in the London boxing scene, known for his grace, agility, and powerful punches. Humphry, on the other hand, was a British fighter, renowned for his tenacity and determination in the ring. The bout between these two boxing greats was held at the famous Middlesex Palace Gardens, a popular venue for boxing matches in the late 18th century. The event attracted a large crowd, eager to witness the spectacle of two elite fighters going head to head. In this photograph, we see Mendoza and Humphry locked in a fierce exchange, their expressions revealing the intensity of the moment. Mendoza, wearing a red waistcoat and white breeches, is shown delivering a powerful right hook, while Humphry, in a blue waistcoat and white breeches, counters with a left jab. The referee, dressed in a red coat and tricorn hat, stands by, ready to ensure a fair and safe contest. This image not only captures the excitement and drama of a bygone era in boxing history but also offers a unique insight into the physical demands and athleticism required to excel in the sport during that time. The photograph serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of boxing and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to step into the ring.
