Maybe you should file a formal complaint because Bill has bigger muscles than
Jack, which is common in heavyweight boxing. Of course Jack might have better
skills; so tie one hand behind his back.  And Jonathan throws on average twice
as many punches as the other's so he can only punch as many times as his
opponent. George has a wicked upper-cut. We can't let him throw that, he might
knock someone out and win. Oh and Robert likes to chew on ears, so let's just
disqualify him. Now let the man who can win based on the handicap's and not his
skills be victorious.


Now the guy who can't box as good can still have a chance to win. We should
expect big things in boxing. New leaps and bounds.
