Michael, a great post on the truly circular nature of how some fighters ( or sports teams) have other fighters numbers, yet they can be handily beaten by a bunch of other fighters.

it makes life interesting.... like they say in football, on any given sunday :-)

I think I do recall that Frazier commercial.

I thought Joe's ego had not overwhelmed him.

Let's look at Ali for a minute.

His strategy for beating Foreman was to let Foreman wail away on Ali's head until George was fatigued.

Rope a dope Ali called that. That is the one of the greatest classical ironies of the past century.

Who was the dope that was roped?

somehow I can not imagine Albert Schweitzer or Another Albert... Einstein coming up with that type of scheme.. and then bragging about it.

Great parables could be written about this. I'm sure they will be.
