Pugilism, associated with emergency defense or attack, reveals the physical capabilities of an unarmed person. Such a fight is dictated by natural necessity, and the actions of the fighters depend on the qualities developed spontaneously throughout their lives. Modern boxing is the result of an evolution that required «cultural inventions»: a set of rules that took into account humanistic attitudes; gaming; special equipment.
