The phrase "ducking and diving" originates from the sport of boxing, where fighters must evade punches by ducking low and quickly moving side to side—akin to diving. Over time, it has evolved to describe someone who skillfully avoids difficulties or dangers in various contexts, not just in boxing. The imagery suggests agility and quick reflexes in navigating challenges.
