Boxing: Against the Odds

In the world of boxing, the script is usually written long before the opening bell. The favourite strides in under the bright lights, wrapped in silk and confidence, carrying the weight of expectation like armour. The opponent? He’s meant to be a footnote, a “tune-up” fight on the road to a bigger payday.

But then, the unthinkable happens.

A single hook lands. The champion’s legs wobble. The arena freezes in stunned silence, and in that heartbeat, boxing history is rewritten right in front of you.
