Excellent analysis.
From the ancient Greek perspective, this is entirely Mayweather’s fight to lose. Look for 49-1 as payback for hubris.
Even Achilles had a bad heel.
“Look for 49-1 as payback for hubris.”
I seem to remember Larry Holmes saying Marciano couldn’t carry his jockstrap and all the experts were saying 48-0 Holmes was going to destroy skinny Michael Spinks, tie Rocky’s record of 49-0, then break it in his next fight. Well we all know what happened. Skinny Marvin Spinks beat him, then beat him again.
