Looking forward to this one. It seems like it will be right up my alley.

Not sure how many boxing fans or casual-engagers with low-yield cultural events are present, but tonight's Mike Tyson fight was peak hauntology.

You have the literal spirit of pugilism, terrifyingly-replacéd of testosterone, lighting quick but incapable of punching (as in my bad dreams) feigning something familiar (as in my social engagements) in a fixed fight against who but an algorithmically-unbeatable Instagram Influencer with an Iron Jaw; and even with the fix in--exactly nothing happens, probably meaning nothing can ever possibly happen again. It was like the past's last half-hearted bob-but-no-jab at temporalizing itself though the process of having naught but what--a weigh in?
