No.

An American Bulldog is one breed in itself, thought to have been created by breeding English bulldogs and bull terriers.

The Boxer was from Germany, with records going back to the 1880s. Before that their history is more spotty.

The ancestors of Boxers were the German Bullenbeisser (a Mastiff type dog also called the Brabant Bullenbeisser), and the English Bulldog. The Brabant Bullenbeisser is accepted as the immediate ancestor of the Boxer.

The Brabanter was crossed with the English Bulldog to startthe line that would become the Boxer. In 1894, three Germans by the name of Roberth, Konig, and Hopner decided to work with the breed and enter it in a dog show. This was done in Munich in 1895, and the next year they founded the first Boxer Club.

Bully breed dogs are dogs that are classified as pit bill type breeds and were originally bred to fight bulls for sport. Not all dogs that have the term "bull" in their breed qualify. Bully breeds include the American pit bull terrier, American Staffordshire terrier, Staffordshire terrier, English bull terrier, miniature bull terrier, and the American bulldog. (The English bulldog is not considered a bully breed.) Bully breeds are all part of the pit bull family, but each breed has unique personalities and temperaments. Bully breeds have gotten a bad reputation because of their aggressive beginnings, but they are great dogs to the right owner.

Yes, although they are bred to a slightly different breed standard, they are the same breed (unless you are thinking of the American Bulldog which is different). The only real noticeable difference between English and American-born Boxers is that in America most Boxers are cropped and docked for show - which is illegal in England.
