In boxing, it just seemed to me from the time I was a very small child, we have a peculiarly civilized form in that boxers don't screech and holler. They don't use weapons. When the bell rings, they fight; when the bell rings again, they stop.

Im Boxen schien es mir einfach aus der Zeit, als ich ein sehr kleines Kind war, eine eigenartig zivilisierte Form, in der Boxer nicht kreischen und schreien. Sie benutzen keine Waffen. Wenn die Glocke läutet, kämpfen sie. Wenn die Glocke wieder klingelt, hören sie auf.
