How did the boxing championship bout between John L. Sullivan and Jim Corbett such an impact in world history?

Simply put, it kept the Sport moving forward into the modern age. Either this bout or the one before it was when gloves came into use. Prior, all matches were fought with bare knuckles. John L. Sullivan bridged the gap between the bare knuckle and gloved eras. James J. Corbet was the first boxer to box all his championship matches with gloves on. Will like to see some era experts come onto here with more info.

What is an undercard in boxing?

The undercard, or preliminary matches, consists of preliminary bouts that occur before the headline or "main event" of a particular boxing, professional wrestling, horse racing, auto racing, or other sports event. (In auto racing, however, the term "support race" occurs more commonly.) Typically, promoters intend the undercard to provide fans with an opportunity to see up-and-coming fighters or fighters not so well-known and popular as their counterparts in the main event. The undercard also ensures that if the main event ends quickly fans will still feel that they received sufficient value for the price of their admission.
