Parece que la cosa va de boxeadores. Esta es parte de la letra de la canción que Bob Dylan dedicó a Rubin Carter, un boxeador negro que fue encarcelado por tres asesinatos que no cometió. Finalemnte salió de la cárcel 22 años después de ser procesado. Mítico. Y dice:

Here comes the story of the hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin’ that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world. [...]

In paterson that’s just the way things go.
If you’re black you might as well not show up on the street. [...]

How can the life of such a man
Be in the palm of some fool’s hand?
To see him obviously framed
Couldn’t help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where justice is a game. [...]

That’s the story of the hurricane,
But it won’t be over till they clear his name
And give him back the time he’s done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.
