A quick detour while Jane's Hotel Mania waits for your next move: Women's boxing made its Olympic debut at London 2012. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: By the 1890s, department stores and mail-order catalogs were selling mass-produced ready-to-wear clothes in standardized styles and price ranges. That long chain of experiments is part of why combat sports still feels fresh when a game finds the right twist.
