Century Fight Club is a historical fiction novel. It chiefly revolves around a 16-man bare-knuckle boxing tournament and the actions and adventures of the protagonist, Wolfgang Claudius Farre. This short story delves into the gritty world of 18th-century prizefighting through the lens of Wolfgang, aka Wolf 'The Mystic' Farre, a young man from Ireland. It places readers into the proverbial time machine and transports them on a unique journey back to the year 1755, during the 'Age of Enlightenment.' Century Fight Club goes beyond mere pugilism, it also explores the various gangs roaming the streets of England. Features murder mysteries and is filled with an assorted plethora of informative information on multiple subjects. Another goal of this manuscript is to educate people about the history and origins of bare-knuckle boxing. An ancient form of entertainment that has experienced a resurgence in recent years sparking widespread curiosity in this sport.
