There's never been a great fight without the writers taking on and finding an identity for it. That's probably what has happened boxing.

Sometimes God gives instructions that go against conventional wisdom, such as treating people kindly when they're hateful. Who really wants to do that? Instructions like that may not always make sense, so that's why I need to trust and obey the One who inspired them.
George Foreman

George Foreman
Anytime I can sneak in a moment to fish and ride horses, I'm a happy camper!
