So therefore a fighting chance isn’t a mere chance or merely a chance, which feels like a mere possibility, a kind that’s kind of out of our control. A fighting chance, on the other hand, feels bigger and more real. If the chance is too small, you tend to leave everything to luck and won’t even care to fight (make an effort).

Anyways, it’s a good idea to remember this phrase this way: if you care to fight, any fighting chance you get will feel very real.

Here are media examples of “fighting chance”:

1. Brendan Rodgers believes a special Anfield atmosphere can inspire his players to claw back a 2-0 deficit when they meet Zenit St Petersburg next week.

The Reds had chances to clinch a crucial away goal in Russia on Thursday night; however, an unstoppable effort from Hulk followed by a simple tap-in by substitute Sergei Semak sealed victory for the home side.

The result now means Liverpool must win by a three-goal-or-greater margin in exactly a week's time if they are to progress to the last 16 of the Europa League.

...

The manager opted to withdraw Raheem Sterling in order to introduce Lucas Leiva on 78 minutes with the Reds trailing at 2-0.

And when questioned afterwards about his decision to make the switch, Rodgers replied: “I was just making sure that we stayed in the tie.

“That was the important thing for us, as much as we wanted to maybe go on [and attack]. There’s another game and at 2-0 you can retrieve something.
