vocabulary Albert Einstein: "The most incomprehensible thing in this world is that it is comprehensible."

- (second name infighter ) an athlete who uses a fighting style in which he keeps the minimum possible distance to his opponent, striking consecutive combinations of punches, which consist of hooks and uppercuts. Boxer-infighter has to be tough to withstand his opponent's attacks, because in this style of boxing it is inevitable to be hit by jabs before there is an opportunity to get close enough. Therefore, swarmers must be quite aggressive and constantly to train their endurance. At the same time boxers of this style rarely possess good technique, because they often lose control of their emotions. The majority of infighters are of short stature, which enables them to bend at the waist when defending and make dodges.
