I trained as hard as I could, I ran as much as I could, I sparred hard, I did everything right. I did everything I could possibly do at the age when I could fight. You have to be realistic; you can't say, 'Oh, I am smarter now, older and I can punch harder.' You think you can, but you can't. Micky Ward agefighthard share on social

But I don't think that what he is saying, so far as I understand it, is so very different from what I'm saying. John Updike academicageambitious share on social
