Go Spotting: Boxing Fuseki

In the manga Ashita No Joe -- also known as Tomorrow's Joe in America -- the main character Joe Yabuki talks about fuseki. The manga isn't about go at all -- its about boxing -- but here Joe is in the middle of a brutal match and in danger of losing. His coach wants to take him out of the match but Joe uses the concept of fuseki to explain his plan. Thanks to Henry Hathaway for passing this along.
