The Chance to Get Back Up
A Lesson on FailureFloyd Patterson was the only boxer to lose the heavyweight title and regain it again. Towards the end of Patterson’s career he was interviewed by a sportswriter who had reviewed Patterson’s stats. The writer asked him if he realized that he had been knocked down more times than any boxer in history. Patterson paused, smiled, and said “that’s okay, because I also GOT UP more times than any boxer in history.”Laura Fitzpatrick2 min read
