Daniel Mendoza (5 July 1764[a] – 3 September 1836) (often known as Dan Mendoza) was an English prize fighter in the 1780s and 90s, and was also an instructor of pugilism. He was of Sephardic or Portuguese Jewish descent.[2][3][4]
Mendoza played a significant role in the development of scientific technique in boxing, by publishing two books on the subject ('The Art of Boxing' and 'The Modern Art of Boxing') and by holding frequent public exhibitions. Modern sources regularly depict Mendoza as having been English Prize fighting Champion from 1792-1795, although contemporary sources from the late 18th and early 19th century never describe Mendoza in this way.
