Boxing involves the possibility of defeat, I accepted that very early on. After all, there are only two men and one of them wins.

Boxing isn't just about brute strength; it's about skill and outwitting your opponent.

Sometimes success needs interruption to regain focus and shake off complacency.

Every step I take, I am alive. I am Life.

The artist envies what the arties gains, The bard the rival bard's successful strains.

I tend to fly a bit under the radar.

Prosperity has no power over adversity.

I meditate. Daily practice is essential to my life.
