the sweet science
The sport of boxing. I always felt like I could have been contender for the heavyweight title when I was in my prime, but I had to give up the sweet science after sustaining a spinal injury in a car accident when I was 23. Boxing is really an art form, if you ask me. There are so many skills one must have perfected, so many variables to think of in a match. It's no wonder they call it the sweet science.
