===Professional boxing===
The flyweight division was the last of boxing's eight traditional weight classes to be established. Before 1909, anyone below [featherweight](/source/featherweight) was considered a [bantamweight](/source/bantamweight), regardless of how small the boxer. In 1911, the organization that eventually became the [British Boxing Board of Control](/source/British_Boxing_Board_of_Control) held a match that crowned [Sid Smith](/source/Sid_Smith_(boxer)) as the first flyweight champion of the world. [Jimmy Wilde](/source/Jimmy_Wilde), who reigned from 1916 to 1923, was the first fighter recognized both in Britain and the United States as a flyweight champion.<ref>{{cite book
