Americans are some of the most overweight people in the world, not just stereotypically but statistically too. In fact, nearly 42% of U.S. adults are obese, and it’s costing us. Unfortunately, the extra pounds have inflated the costs of obesity-related medical treatment to approximately $190.2 billion a year and annual productivity losses due to work absenteeism to around $4.3 billion.

DOING well in the ring with Naoya Inoue carries the same sense of foreboding a binge drinker will experience at the peak of their euphoria. In other words, you must enjoy it while it lasts. You must enjoy it while it lasts because what follows is inevitable: the vomiting, the genuflecting by the toilet, the begging for mercy. Also to come is the next-day headache, as well as the regret of knowing you were warned and understood the consequences of your actions. This, after all, is the price you pay. The price you pay for having fun. The price you pay for thinking you would get away with it.
