Similar storytelling as 'For Love Of The Game'


A big difference, of course, is that unlike the pitcher who is unaware of how great he is doing, this boxer is aware of what's going on. Instead, he wants to be knocked down, but it will not be because he gave up. In every area of his life, he's been dealt a knock-out blow, yet he still stands. The fight he's really fighting, is to be able to let it go without giving up. It is no wonder the opponent's name then, is King Solomon. This is a clear reference to the wise king of Israel in the scriptures. To be able to let go without giving up, requires wisdom, and who better to provide that answer than King Solomon. Epic!

By the way, I loved how the fight ended. :)
