In the article " It was lightning and thunder" by Will Grimsley he describes the heavyweight title match between Ali and Liston in Maine in 1965. He explains how the fight was real the first time but rigged the second time in Maine. He uses tip 3 in my opinion because he gives us statistics about the first fight and compared it to the second one. I also think that the rhetorical stratiges he used were the audience in which he explains how angry they are and the tone of the article.


In the article " Sox hit rock bottom" by Stephen Hawkins he describes how the Redsox lost a crushing game against the Rangers by a Josh Hamilton game winning double. The author uses tip number three and tip number four. His rhetorical strategies he uses is by telling how the audience felt and the occasion for writing this prompt which is because of the game winning double by Josh Hamilton.
