THE DRUNK MASTER (II)

If you're looking for a fight, you should at least be at 100%, shouldn't you?



Unless you're Jackie Chan...

CONTROVERSIES IN PARIS 2024 BOXING

Two of the boxing "competitors" at the Paris 2024 Olympics, Algerian Imane Khelif and Taiwanese Lin Yu-Ting, were disqualified from the AIB World Championship just a year ago after mandatory DNA tests revealed XY chromosomes.

However, this year's Olympic Games allow each country's organizations to set their own criteria when selecting athletes, which is why both boxers can compete in the French capital without any issues.

In light of this controversy, a 2022 fight between Imane Khelif and Mexican Brianda Cruz has gone viral, showcasing Khelif's physical superiority.

TRAINING AS A COUPLE

Going to the gym together is about way more than just working out side by side. It's sharing goals, pushing each other forward, and strengthening your connection as a couple. Because when you train together, routines feel easier, repetitions become less tedious, and even muscle soreness doesn't hit as hard.

Then there's the bonus factor: the playful glances between sets, the friendly competition pushing you both to do better, and laughing together when one of you inevitably messes up. You're not only caring for your physical health but nurturing your emotional bond as well.

And the extra upside? After your gym session, all that energy and those feel-good endorphins can turn into the perfect warm-up to end your day together in the best possible way. So remember, a couple that trains together stays together.

ALL MESSED UP

Getting out of your car at a sideshow to punch a guy because he apparently kicked your side mirror, only to end up getting punched yourself and having your car stolen while you left it wide open in the middle of the intersection. 2024 wasn’t your year, my friend.

THE VIOLENT BUSHMAN

It's understandable that when someone gets startled, they might respond physically. Being scared triggers an instinctive defense reaction, and the annoyance of being the target of a prank can sometimes cause someone to act aggressively. What's interesting here is that the prankster, who is already bothering people with his jump scares, responds with violence when someone doesn't take the joke well.

WHO IS DOROBSHOKH NABOTOV AND WHY HAS HE GONE VIRAL

Sometimes, life presents you with a unique opportunity, but to make the most of it, you have to be ready to seize it. The case of fighter Dorobshokh Nabotov at the UFC 308 conference, when Dana White was taking questions from the press, is a perfect example: Dorobshokh had the courage to step up at just the right moment, knowing he could be rejected or even ridiculed. Yet, he took the risk, and against all odds, the opportunity became a reality.

Dorobshokh Nabotov is a 25-year-old fighter from Tajikistan with a record of 9 wins and 0 losses. He boldly asked Dana White for a chance to fight in the UFC, and it appears Dana accepted the challenge. Have we just witnessed the beginning of a legend?

This situation reminds us that, even if things don’t always go our way, it’s crucial to keep trying. Most of the time, you might not get the answer you want, but that doesn’t mean you should give up. Each attempt is a lesson, preparing you for the moment when everything clicks into place. It’s perseverance that makes the difference, allowing you to seize those unexpected opportunities that only arise if you’re willing to take the leap and make a move.

It doesn’t matter how many times you feel you’ve failed; what’s important is not to stop trying. Success isn’t for those who wait passively but for those willing to take risks, stand in the line of fire, and keep going, regardless of past results. Because sometimes, life rewards the brave who refuse to quit and dare to do what others only dream of.

MINUS TIMES MINUS EQUALS MORE. IF EVERYONE IS ARMED, NO ONE IS ARMED.

Weapons create paradoxes that are hard to resolve. In a country where they’re legal, those who don’t carry one put themselves at a disadvantage against those who do. But if everyone is armed, no one dares to use theirs because they know the other person might shoot first. And yet, in a country where they’re banned, the only ones who have them are those who don’t follow the law, leaving everyone else as defenseless targets.

The theory says that arming the population creates balance, a game of deterrence where the risk of retaliation keeps guns holstered. But reality is far messier. Owning a gun, in itself, can push you to use it in situations where you otherwise never would have considered it. A misunderstanding, a pointless road rage incident, a moment of anger… and suddenly, pulling the trigger feels like an option.

If no one carries weapons, there’s no dilemma. If everyone does, the risk is always there but kept in check by mutual fear. And between these two extremes, the paradox remains: allowing guns means that those who don’t carry them are at risk, banning them means only those already outside the law will have them. So the real question is: which scenario would you rather live in?
