punching, and feinting, to determine who is the better man in the ring" (Farley
26). Unfortunately, dead boxers tell a different story. A study on dangerous
contact sports conducted by Patrick Malone of the Knight Ridder News Service in

"Many governments are inclined to define human rights in the manner most convenient to suiting their own political interests." (Boutros Butros Ghali, 1993).
