As the first President of the National Sporting Club, Lord Lonsdale launched the belt as the new prize trophy for the British Champion at each weight division. The first being won in 1909 by Freddie Welsh - Lightweight.

He defended the title thirteen times, a record that stood for many years, before losing against Joe Beckett in Freddie Hall Thomas February 1919. The Lord Lonsdale (AKA Freddie Welsh) Challenge Lonsdale Belt that he won was the original heavyweight belt and is crafted from 22 carat gold. It is reported this belt is kept at The Royal Artillery Barracks in Woolwich, South East London. (not on display to the general public). A total of 22 Lord Lonsdale Challenge Belts were issued by the National Sporting Club until the British Boxing Board of Control began it’s governance in 1929 and began Billy Wells (AKA The Bombadier) awarding the belts. The belts then became the property of any champion who won three title fights in a division.
