> you told me a story about a boxing coach or something destroying oscar wilde.

The Marquess of Queensberry, John Douglas ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Douglas,_9th_Marquess_of_Queensberry ), after whom the current boxing rules are named, because he wrote them. He was going to be in the House of Lords but refused to recite the "Christian nonsense" part of the oath and he also hated London. His son got caught up in all the London degeneracy and killed himself at 20, so when his younger son was 16 and ran off with Oscar Wilde, he went down to London to look for him, left a business card for Wilde at a club he frequented and wrote on the back, "Called for Oscar Wilde, posing sodomite". Wilde sued him for libel (which was a criminal offense in England back then, and I think still is), and his defense was basically "I said he was posing as a sodomite, not that he was a sodomite" and he also hired a bunch of private investigators to interview Oscar Wilde's favorite male prostitutes and then presented all of that to the court, so the court dropped the charges, and he then handed all the evidence to the police, which is how Wilde ended up in prison.
