For his project titled 141 Boxers, photographer Nicolai Howalt shot portraits of boxers before and after boxing matches. The images side-by-side tell the stories of what happened in between when they were captured.

    I notice a lot more confidence in their eyes in some. The UFC has been doing this for awhile, but I still liked these.
