The Sweet Science
2: This fighter won both the Thrilla in Manila and the Rumble in the Jungle.
4: Considered the best pound-for-pound boxer for much of his career, he was first elected to the Philippine House of Representatives in 2010.
6: This "ironic" boxer was undefeated until he got knocked out by James 'Buster' Douglas in what is considered one of the biggest upsets of all time.
8: He may be The Real Deal, but his May 2015 "fight" against Mitt Romney was probably not much of a challenge.
10: The Detroit Red Wings play their home games at the arena named after this Brown Bomber.
The Dismal Science
3: To calculate this quantity - over $17 trillion for the U.S. in 2014 - add consumption, investment, government expenditures, and net exports.
6: Economists use this abstract concept to measure consumer satisfaction from combinations of goods and services, not just electricity, gas, and water.
9: As the name suggests, the holder of this financial instrument has the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a set number of shares at a fixed price on or before the expiration date.
12: His book, Capital in the Twenty-First Century, endorses progressive taxation to reduce wealth and income inequality.
15: Game theory can be used to analyze this market structure dominated by a few large sellers.
