    The last phone booth got taken out a decade ago. We need a new metaphor for rapid, head to head inside fighting. Obviously, boxing in a cell phone doesn't work. Why don't we come up with something new?

    *boxing in a cubicle
    *boxing in a coffin
    *boxing in a submarine
    *boxing in a port-a-potty
    *boxing in a refrigerator box

    and so forth. Have fun with it.

    TVs need a voice filter so I can set it to Lederman.

    Port a John makes the most sense. I've seen cubicles that are big enough to not be in punching range. Also, I feel like some boxing fans might not know what a cubicle is, as they don't work in offices.

    We don't need a new metaphor and plenty of phone booths still exist, but closet or elevator work.

    Phone booths are now public urinals. Boxing in a public urinal.
