Boxing 2 x

A strange little side quest

Put Boxing 2 x next to the history of combat sports and a few unexpected connections appear. Boxing entered the modern Olympic Games in 1904 at St. Louis. There is another connection worth keeping in the same mental pocket: Atari's Gran Trak 10 from 1974 is recognized as the first arcade racing video game. It is a good reminder that simple game mechanics can carry a surprising amount of history.
