===Professional boxing===

====History====
A featherweight boxer weighs in at a limit of {{convert|126|lb|kg}}. In the early days of the division, this limit fluctuated. The British have generally always recognized the limit at 126 pounds, but in America the weight limit was at first 114 pounds. An early champion, [[George Dixon (boxer)|George Dixon]], moved the limit to 120 and then 122 pounds. Finally, in 1920 the United States fixed the limit at 126 pounds.<ref>{{cite book

The 1860 fight between Nobby Clark and Jim Elliott is sometimes called the first featherweight championship. However, the division only gained wide acceptance in 1889 after the [[Ike Weir]]–Frank Murphy fight.

Since the end of the 2000s and early 2010s the featherweight division is one of the most active in boxing with fighters such as [[Orlando Salido]], [[Chris John (boxer)|Chris John]], [[Juan Manuel López (boxer)|Juan Manuel López]], [[Celestino Caballero]], [[Yuriorkis Gamboa]], [[Elio Rojas]], [[Israel Vazquez]], [[Cristobal Cruz]], [[Rafael Márquez (boxer)|Rafael Márquez]], [[Rocky Juarez]], [[Steven Luevano]], [[Naseem Hamed]], [[Marco Antonio Barrera]] and [[Manny Pacquiao]].
