Pugilism is commonly known as the practice, sport, or profession of boxing. The word is derived from a Latin word pugil which means boxer, akin to Latin word pugnus which means fist.
Boxing, also called Western Boxing, prizefighting (when referring to professional boxing) or the sweet science (a common nickname among fans), is a sport and martial art in which two participants of similar weight fight each other with their fists in a series of one to three-minute intervals called "rounds".♥
