    The mountain gods were protective of Manaslu, a two-pronged peak in the Nepal Himalaya, and one of the world’s fourteen 8,000m peaks. 
    Many years ago, a Japanese team tried to climb it, but the gods had sent an avalanche in their wake which destroyed a monastery and set the local people against them. When they returned the next year, they were met with sticks and stones, stripped naked and sent home with red cheeks. 
    Mark Horrell and his two friends Mark and Ian shared a dream to climb an 8,000m peak, but it seemed the gods were against them too. They had made no fewer than eight attempts without success (though they had managed to return with their clothes on). 
    With towering ice walls, monsoon rainstorms, arm-twisting crevasses and – most dangerous of all – welcoming teahouses ready to entrap them, would it be different this time?

    Boxing is one of the oldest and most celebrated combat sports in history, combining athleticism, strategy, and resilience. Its roots can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where it was practiced as both a form of entertainment and a test of physical prowess. Over time, boxing has evolved into a regulated sport with worldwide recognition, drawing millions of fans and participants alike. 
    At its core, boxing is a contest between two individuals who use their fists to score points or achieve a knockout while adhering to a set of rules. However, the sport is much more than just physical combat—it is an intricate balance of skill, technique, mental toughness, and discipline. Boxers train tirelessly to master their craft, blending speed, power, and endurance with tactical precision. 
    Understanding the rules and structure of boxing is essential for beginners. A standard boxing match consists of timed rounds, typically lasting three minutes, with one-minute rest intervals. Fighters compete in specific weight classes to ensure fairness, and their ultimate goal is to outscore or incapacitate their opponent. Judges score rounds based on criteria such as effective punches, defense, and overall ring control.
