I have to feel like Cody and his team scouted Dom and practiced against this specific set of attack. At the least they broke down punch attacks and muscle trained against them.
Looks like peak Ali ducking his opponents' attacks.

Jeremy Irons did the reading for both Brideshead Revisited and Lolita (since he was in mini series/movie adaptions of those works).
His voice and inflection matched with writing of that quality is completely engrossing. Would highly recommend.

Remember that time they ran out of water and Ben was about to drink sea water!?! That sh*t was intense.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in This sub's most popular posts regarding Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist are negative... I loved it! by benspaperclip
Agree. If you enjoyed The Alchemist's themes about fate, determinism, life purpose, etc, then I'd recommend reading Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow next. It's a more nuanced and challenging perspective on those same concepts.
