There are 10 boys, each with different weights and heights. For any two boys $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$, if $\mathbf{A}$ is heavier than $\mathbf{B}$, or if $\mathbf{A}$ is taller than $\mathbf{B}$, we say that " $\mathrm{A}$ is not inferior to B". If a boy is not inferior to the other 9 boys, he is called a "strong boy". What is the maximum number of "strong boys" among the 10 boys?
