If boxing is about anything, it is about pain; both the intentional infliction of pain upon another human being, and the self-imposed pain that boxers must bear in order to mete out punishment on others.
"The primacy of hurt supercharges even the smallest detail…and produces the distinctive ozone crackle of bad intentions that attracts some people to boxing and repels many others." Carlo Rotella, Cut Time
