Joyce Carol Oates Golden Gloves Analysis

Then, a couple of months later he became a famous Boxer. Also, he was a strong, fast, and fluent fighter. He always did what he was suppose to do as a Boxer and a Father. (Paragraph 5) The World is better, because more children want to be like him or be like him, so they want to do the things he is doing. He persuades children to Box, because of his style, speed, and strength.

Manning’s father had a hard time expressing love to him, however, played physical sports to show it. This relationship was more of a physical relationship rather than a sentimental one. They show love for each other by arm wrestling. It starts by his father being the more dominant one, thus Manning has not won. Manning loved losing to his father to show how his father was strong and how he wanted to follow his father’s footsteps.

Rainsford also knew where to hide and how to cover up his tracks so it would be harder to find him. He won the game by getting back into General Zaroff’s room by the end of the third night. General Zaroff was very surprised and then said to really win you have to beat me in a fight and whoever wins will get to sleep in the bed tonight. Rainsford was the winner of the fight and this just shows how smart he is and the strength he has to never give up in even the toughest

He used sarcasm to perfect his work of satire. He quotes, “I loved this work. I would be hard-pressed to recount any event from my personal or professional life that more accurately typified the phrase crazy fun.” (Alford, 999). I think that the author is using a very sarcastic way to say how ridiculously stupid his job is. He is just an extra that has big dreams of becoming a famous Hollywood actor.

(Antonio and Felix) In the story (Amigo Brothers) the author Piri Thomas tells us a story about two friends that both box and they are so similar that they are different. The conflict is that the two friends Antonio and Felix have to box each other for the lightweight champion title. Imagine having to fight your friend for a sport and hurt them! The thing is that Antonio and Felix both want to win the championships, but they each have different boxing ways and personalities. Also they are both good at boxing.

He just wanted to show that nobody could break him and he could break as many rules as he wanted. In fact, he went around trying to break rules. “Dally hated to do things the legal way. He liked to show that he didn't care whether there was a law or not. He went around trying to break laws“ (pg 20).

In addition, Atticus went against his moral code and principles he had always upheld before, especially in the Tom Robinson trial. Now, Atticus is faced with the decision of abiding by the law or breaking it in order to do the right thing. He knew that incarcerating a man, as withdrawn and solitary as Arthur would have been unforgivable. Especially, after Arthur had performed a great deed by saving his children 's life. He knew that exposing him would be an awful way of repaying him; it would have been like "shooting a mockingbird."

Atticus wants his children to understand that it doesn’t take courage to pull a trigger. Only cowards relay on the tactic of using the fear of strength to win a fight, but it takes courage to stand on already failing ground and hold one’s head up in diginty. It takes alot of courage for one to dicate work towards a goal that has such a slim chance of success, and yet work til the end of it to say one at least tried. Atticus hopes by explaining this to his children that they see how Atticus’s trial is a losing battle he is fighting, not only to win the trial, but to try a make small steps to better future. Courage is not something easily won with guns or money.

Mike Tyson was faced with many roadblocks before he claimed the title for the world 's youngest heavyweight boxer. A deadbeat dad, gangs, juvenile courts, and even jail time were simply not enough to prevent Tyson from becoming one of the most successful individuals to ever step into a boxing ring. The hard work put into boxing allowed Tyson to rise above the conditions that he was forced to survive in. Malcolm Gladwell begins his novel of his belief behind the success of Outliers—The Story of Success,by using the word ‘outlier,’ as a descriptor to identify remarkable individuals in societies that have accomplished extraordinary heights of success. Gladwell defines an outlier as: “1: something that is situated away from or classed differently from a main or related body, and 2: a statistical observation that is markedly different in value from the others of the sample”.

“Life doesn't cost him a thought” (Heaney 1536). This quote shows bravery because he is brave and confident in himself that he will fight to the fullest when he battles monsters it's like he's not scared of death and real quick to risk his life to save or help others. “Yet the prince of the rings was too proud to line up with a large army” ( 2345-2346). This quote shows bravery because it shows he’s too proud to fight with an army he rather fight one on one and that shows that he is brave and not afraid. “I shall win the gold by my courage, or else mortal combat, doom of battle, will bear your lord away” (2535-2537).

(Kenney 2012) Although the players’ representation admits that the earliest studies were on boxers, they believe that there had been more than enough evidence gathered to prove the link between MTBIs sustained during football and dementia symptoms later in life by the 1950’s. The players accuse the NFL of actively suppressing knowledge of the extent of damage caused by MTBIs and promoting the physicality of the sport for profit. (Kenney 2012) The players’ group has been largely contending with the NFL, driven by the idea that these players have been morally wronged by the organization. They have high concern for their own identity group but low concern for the opposition (NFL) generally due to their perception of the NFL as a wealthy and powerful organization with the upper hand in legal proceedings. (Pruitt, Kim 2004) The players group is unlikely to engage in yielding techniques due to their perception of the engagement in the conflict as morally right and due to their use of legal representatives as representatives of a group are less likely to yield for fear of disappointing the group they represent.
