Best Defense: Offense

I remember when my cousins and I used to play Starcraft Broodwar. I used to create a lot of turrets around my base so that the enemies attacking will die. As turret defense and some ground defense are being attacked, I replaced them so my defensive capability will increase. With resources at base running low I decided to expand my area of control. So I created offensive troops. But sadly all my offensive troops are beaten. The end games with me losing to five computer opponents. So I asked my cousin why I lost. He said that I have too many defensive units around my base and I should remember that “the best defense is an offence”.

Yesterday I watched Pacquiao and Clotey fight (or to say I watched the advertisements flooding the fighting event). After the fight Pacquiao wins. I had a bit of disappointment after the fight because I never seen “action” during the game. You know, exchanging blows with each other or something like that.  Never seen Clotey hits too much on Pacquiao. Clotey being the best Defensive fighter in boxing world, there’s no wonder in that. I admired Clotey because he’s never been knocked down by Pacman in twelve rounds. But winning in boxing is decided on who scores more if both remains standing after the fight not on how many blows you had block.

If Clotey wants to win another fight he should remember “the best defense is an offense”. This does not only applies to Clotey but to all fighters as well.
