He's doing a rope-a-dope!
He's doing a what?
Rope-a-dope. You know? It's a boxing term. Ali and Foreman in Zaire?
Captain, I know what it is.

The Hunt For Red October (1984)
by Tom Clancy, author
excerpts, Chapter 17
"Still with us?" Mancuso's face looked satanic in the red lights.
"No goddammit, I'm dead--what do I do?"
"Ramius?" Mancuso saw the captain holding a flashlight taken from a bracket on the aft bulkhead.
"Down, dive for bottom." Ramius took the phone and called engineering to order the engines stopped. Melekhin had already given the order.
Ryan pushed his controls forward. In a goddamned submarine that's got a goddamned hole punched in it, they tell you to go down! he thought.
The V. K. Konovalov
"A solid hit, Comrade Captain," the michman reported. "His engines stopped. I hear hull creaking noises, his depth is changing." He tried some additional pings but got nothing. The explosion had greatly disturbed the water. There were rumbling echoes of the initial explosion reverberating through the sea. Trillions of bubbles had formed, creating an "ensonified zone" around the target that rapidly obscured it. His active pings were reflected back by the cloud of bubbles, and his passive listening ability was greatly reduced by the recurring rumbles. All he knew for sure was that one torpedo had hit, probably the second. He was an experienced man trying to decide what was noise and what was signal, and he had reconstructed most of the events correctly.
The Dallas
"Score one for the bad guys," the sonar chief said. The Dallas was running too fast to make proper use of her sonar, but the explosion was impossible to miss. The whole crew heard it through the hull.
