    I think your confusing progress with change.

    for a sport that took from 4000+ years to invent the jab (3000bc-1790ad) the changes over 100 years really cant be called progress at this point in time.

      There was no continuous organised boxing from 4000 years ago onwards. There is evidence of fighting with fists by various cultures, but no real science to it.

      Boxing with rules and techniques wasn't really around until the 1700's or so. Jack broughton I think was the guy who put in the first rules which stopped things like too much wrestling and biting and groin shots etc
