Robert James Fitzsmimons (Helston, 26 de maio de 1863 - Chicago, 22 de outubro de 1917) foi um formidável pugilista britânico, tendo sido o primeiro boxeador na história a conquistar os títulos mundiais em três categorias de peso diferentes.Fitzsimmons foi campeão mundial dos pesos-médios de 1891 a 1894, campeão mundial dos pesos-pesados de 1897 a 1899 e campeão mundial dos meios-pesados de 1903 a 1905.Bob Fitzsimmons nasceu na Inglaterra, porém, tinha apenas nove anos de idade, quando sua família emigrou para a Nova Zelândia. Durante sua juventude, trabalhou como ferreiro para seu irmão.Começou a praticar boxe em 1881 e, já no ano seguinte, venceu dois campeonatos locais. Em 1883, realizou três lutas pelas regras de London Prize, tendo vencido todas facilmente. Depois, em 1885, Fitzsimmons mudou-se para a Austrália, quando oficialmente iniciou sua carreira profissional no boxe.No seu início de carreira, Fitzsimmons lutou repetidas vezes contra Mick Dooley, Frank Paddy Slavin e Jim Hall, que figuravam entre os maiores lutadores da Austrália. Tendo demonstrado que era capaz de encarar os melhores de igual para igual, em 1890, Fitzsimmons conseguiu uma luta válida pelo título australiano dos pesos-médios, contra o campeão Jim Hall. Hall venceu a luta e manteve o título, sendo que a posteriori, Fitzsimmons alegou que esta luta havia sido arranjada. Nunca se provou que Fitzsimmons dissera a verdade, todavia, curiosamente, essa foi a única vez que Hall venceu Fitzsimmons, em cinco lutas realizadas entre os dois até então.A seguir, ainda em 1890, Fitzsimmons mudou-se para os Estados Unidos, tendo feito algumas lutas oficiais, além de outra exibicionais, ao longo do restante daquele ano. Então, em 1891, Fitzsimmons conquistou o título de campeão mundial dos pesos-médios, quando venceu o lendário Jack "Nonpareil" Dempsey, que se vendo completamente dominado, desistiu no décimo terceiro assalto.
