In his existential philosophy, Jean-Paul Sartre posits that human beings are “condemned to be free.” This freedom, while exhilarating, carries a weighty responsibility: we must continuously confront the choices that define us, and in doing so, grapple with our limitations. Sartre’s insight is critical to understanding the psychological weight of defeat in boxing, where every fight is not just a battle of bodies but a confrontation with one’s self.

This ties with G.W.F. Hegel‘s theory of human development as a dialectical process — a back-and-forth movement between opposing forces that drives growth. According to Hegel, true understanding emerges only through a process of Aufhebung, or “sublation,” where contradictions are not merely resolved but integrated into a higher synthesis.
