You're right it wasn't really a sparring match but they had gloves and were ready to fight.
That's where the difference of opinion comes in. Ghandi's a world icon for sticking to his principles and extreme sacrifice. And the British did wind up leaving.
I wasn't referring to Mack's case. Just citing an example where being able to fight gets you respect and one where it doesn't.
I'm not sure what the laws are there. I just meant he wasn't concussed and would physically been able to. LOL about the clippers.
I mean I agree with that. It's easy to talk yourself into an ass whooping. It doesn't make it the right way to handle the situation.
