I like this story, but it's possible I could be slightly biased...so I turned to a veteran of the book publishing wars, a literary glitterati, the esteemed critic, Biff Bifflemeyer.
"A marvelous blend of intelligent ventilation points and tailored darts specifically designed to accommodate the biodynamics of the shoulder. I highly recommend it!"
"Are you talking about my book, 7 Fridays?" I asked him.
"Book?" he sputtered. "What book? I thought you were asking about my new dress shirt.
"But don't worry, I know your new book can't be worse than the last one.
"Now, bring me another bottle of whatever it is we're drinking tonight..."
So there you have it, folks. That's the kind of ringing endorsement you can take to the bank.
Read this book; it's possible you won't hate it.
But wait 'til Monday...there's a 5 day "free e-book" promotion running, where you can download it at no cost.
Here he is before the bout began...
And here he is after the bout...
And make no mistake, it definitely is a lot of hard work, physically exhausting. There's nothing quite like taking one on the chin or in the gut to help you learn what you're made of.
In Isaac's case, whenever he got tagged his natural reaction was to return the favor 3 fold. He has this built in, auto response system that kicks into high gear if he gets hit, and I'm sure that's what won the day for him.
His dad and I agreed both of us are now officially 10 years older...I'm sure we were 100x more nervous about the fight than Isaac was.
We were talking about that afterward...I commented that I was sweating buckets and all I was doing was just sitting there.
His dad noted that boxing is very primal - two athletes engaged in one of the most basic activities known to man: fighting.
I think he nailed it.
Congrats, Isaac. You done good.
