Kim was undefeated in 13 bouts when he was assigned by the WBA as the world's number 1 challenger to world Lightweight champion Ray Mancini.
Kim had to struggle mightily to lose weight on the days prior to the bout so that he could weight in under the Lightweight's 135 pound limit, or, as they say in boxing, "make weight".
Not only did Kim lose his life after that fight, but the lives of many others who were involved were affected too: Mancini had to go through a period of regrouping, as he blamed himself for Kim's death.

 Kim by Rudyard Kipling: A searchable online version at The Literature Network
Kim and the lama have in common that neither has any real family ties or sense of belonging, and their quests have in common that both are esoteric, beyond the reach of ordinary people, and both require the renunciation of normal life.
Kim is captured by The Reverend Bennett and Father Victor, who at first assume he is a native thief, then discover his identity papers, revealing that he is the son of the O'Hara of their regiment, whom they knew.
Kim is instrumental, along with the Babu, in thwarting the foreign spies, their mission being particularly successful because the foreign spies never realise that Kim and the Babu are secret agents - as far as they know their expedition has been wrecked by a chance encounter with a holy man and his young disciple.

 Wisconsin Medical Society - Savant Profile, Kim Peek
Kim and his father continue to travel throughout the United States and Canada with the mission and purpose to inform persons about savant syndrome, and to share Kim's message of inspiration.
Kim shows not only increasing comprehension of what he has so extraordinarily put on his mind's hard drive, he demonstrates as well an increasing quick wit, humor and ability to make puns, the latter being very clever and sometimes taking a fair amount of time for those around Kim (including me) to catch the connection.
Kim continues to make a number of national presentations, but he and his Dad also make many local presentations to detention centers, nursing homes, schools and other places where Kim's message about accepting diversity and differentness is always well received along with the inspiring impact that Kim's remarkable abilities themselves leave on all his audiences.

She won her third match in round-robin against Dementieva with 6-2 and 6-3, but that match was only for the honor because both players were already knocked out of the tournament.
After returning to the No. 1 spot in the rankings after the Australian Open in January, Clijsters broke a rankings record - as low as No. 134 in March 2005, her return to the top spot in a ten-month span was the fastest and biggest leap in women's tennis history.
Kim Clijsters is often written off by critics as "too nice," although she smacks her groundstrokes with authority and defends as if her life depended on it.

Kim stood amazed at this, because he had overheard the talk in the Museum, and knew that the old man was speaking the truth, which is a thing a native on the road seldom presents to a stranger.
Kim, fending the lama between excited men and excited beasts, sidled along the cloisters to the far end, nearest the -railway station, where Mahbub Ali, the horse-trader, lived when he came in from that mysterious land beyond the Passes of the North.
Kim had had many dealings with Mahbub in his little life, especially between his tenth and his thirteenth year - and the big burly Afghan, his beard dyed scarlet with lime (for he was elderly and did not wish his grey hairs to show), knew the boy's value as a gossip.

 Kim, by Rudyard Kipling
Perhaps we can accept that Kim, like Kipling himself, was born in India under British rule and so, as a child, would have encountered this situation as a 'given', something which was just there, with no obvious reason why it should be questioned.
The novel embodies a panoramic celebration of India, presenting as it does, a magnificent picture of its landscapes, both urban and rural, and a fascinating array of native characters who, for the most part, are warm, generous and tolerant.
Beyond that, Kim is an adventure story of the Empire, giving it something in common with the novels of Joseph Conrad, such as Heart of Darkness (which is now also much attacked for its colonisl attitudes).

 Amazon.com: Kim (Penguin Classics): Books: Rudyard Kipling   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Kim O'Hara, the orphaned son of an Irish soldier stationed in India, is neither innocent nor victimized.
In the meantime, Kim amuses himself with intrigues, executing "commissions by night on the crowded housetops for sleek and shiny young men of fashion." His peculiar heritage as a white child gone native, combined with his "love of the game for its own sake," makes him uniquely suited for a bigger game.
Interestingly enough, as one progresses through "Kim", one feels the author's passion for his beloved India, a country he nevertheless believed should be ruled by white men since, in his view, they are superior.

 Kim / Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)
    Kim had had many dealings with Mahbub in his little life- especially between his tenth and his thirteenth year- and the big burly Afghan, his beard dyed scarlet with lime (for he was elderly and did not wish his gray hairs to show), knew the boy's value as a gossip.
    Kim burst into a flood of tears, protesting that the lama was his father and his mother, that he was the prop of the lama's declining years, and that the lama would die without his care.

 Kim (1950)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Many of the added scenes, such as the one where Mahbub Ali cheerfully dispatches a would-be assassin and Kim tries for equal equanimity but fails, Creighton's device for helping Kim escape his pursuers at Ambala, and the boy's hard bargaining with the disguised goat-herd in the mountains, are true to the spirit of the book.
Ironically, "Kim" probably sticks too close to source: Kipling's novel was never intended as a conventional thriller, and once you take out the philosophy, description and the unequalled ear for the demotic that conjure up the author's India at such length, there isn't that much actual action in the book.
He handles Kim's long streams of abuse or cajolery with aplomb, and looks if anything more convincing in Indian clothes than European costume, where he seems more the 1950s schoolboy than a child of the nineteenth century.
