In one corner of the ring, a trainer is telling a boxer that he is completely blowing this fight, that he’s worked and worked and come this far only to piss it away. Where is his will to win? He’d better find it fast. In the opposite corner another trainer is telling a boxer that it’s all ok, that he only needs to remember the three things they’ve worked on together. It’s second nature, now. Stay focused and positive. The bell rings and the two boxers meet again — fists, heads, hearts, bodies and coaching. It is spiritual heterogeneity against a backdrop of purified trauma.
