Employing guerrilla warfare is an example of punching above your weight. In boxing, competitors are grouped by weight, because large differences in weight, all other things being equal, make a fight unfair. This takes us back to the physics models we discussed in Chapter 4 (see inertia). Heavier boxers pack more powerful punches and are generally harder to knock over. A boxer who punches above their weight intentionally fights in a heavier class, taking on larger competitors on purpose.
