1885, Jake Kilrain, born John Joseph Killion in New York, stepped into a Boston ring and changed boxing history. He was the last man to fight for a world championship under brutal bare-knuckle rules—no gloves, no mercy. On July 8, 1889, in a secret Mississippi location, Jake faced John L. Sullivan in a legendary 75-round battle under the scorching sun. Blood, sweat, and exhaustion pushed both men to their limits. After two grueling hours, Jake conceded—but his courage and honor made him a hero.
