Block and tackle metres per second. Therefore, the mechanical advantage of a double tackle is 4. The mechanical advantage of any tackle can be increased by interchanging the fixed and moving blocks so the rope is attached to the moving block and the rope is pulled in the direction of the lifted load. In this case the block and tackle is said to be "rove to advantage." Diagram 3 shows three rope parts supporting the load "W", which means the tension in the rope is "W/3". Thus, the mechanical advantage is three-to-one. By adding a pulley to the fixed block of a gun
Rope-a-dope power of welterweight titlist Miguel Cotto in their November 2009 fight. Pacquiao followed the rope-a-dope with a knockdown. Nicolino Locche, Argentine boxer nicknamed "El Intocable" (The Untouchable), used this technique extensively throughout his career.
