fs' blood was pumping as he looked himself in the mirror.  The crowd was chanting, very excited for the fights to start.  He tightened his bow-tie and moved out to the ring in front of the roaring crowd.

Good evening and welcome to another entry into the Golden Gloves event!! I'm so glad everyone could make it out tonight and I hope that we can start this tournament off right with a some good fights.  I know the boxers have been training, and by the sounds of it you have been waiting.  So  I won't keep you waiting any longer.  Let's get started with our fights!!

First up we have luciano_lucky versus IANYU.

luciano comes into the ring as the previous champion and the clear favorite, but really neither fighter can seem to get much going in the first.  Through the second, luciano seems to be trying to taunt Ian more than box but no real good blows are landed between either fighter.  In the third it's clear that Ian has had enough as he comes out and immediately flusters luciano.  After landing a flurry of punches luciano is on the ground.  He will not get up as Ian calmly walks to the corner.

IANYU is the winner by TKO

fs moves back to the center of the ring.

Wow!!! Who would have seen that coming?! Our first fight is a knock out and our previous champ is going home early, what a start!  Well we'll clearly someone new taking the belt home this time.  On to our next fight!

Next we have AlexaBliss versus Vala

Alexa comes out swinging, her previous fighting experience showing as she puts Vala on the ground early in the first for a moment.  Vala  comes back in the second landing a few nice strikes.  In the third, both fighters slow the pace down but Vala lands a few big shots in the fourth.  Alexa comes back out with a strong push to start the fifth, but Vala finishes strong in the last round with some strong body shots winding Alexa.  We're going to the judges decision.

And the judges call: Vala the winner.

What a close one that was!  Two great fighters duking it out all the way to the end!  But we've got plenty more where that came from.  On to our next fight!

Our third fight of the night will be Estarossa versus VinhTran

Esta starts the fight out with some quick jabs to Vinh's body which clearly slows him down.  Both fighters can't seem to make much headway in the second, but in the third round Estarossa finds a clean series of jabs.  It's another slow round in the fourth, however the fifth starts with a big right hook from Vala and he carries that into a nice round.  Esta comes out quick in the last round and is able to see past Vinh's defenses.  But, we're headed to a judges decision.

And the judges call: Estarossa the winner.

Another close match, I wasn't sure who was going to pull that one out!  We can only hope these fights stay this good!  Let's move to our next one.

And now, we have PabloEscobear versus Stiffler aka The Stiffmeister.

It's not every day that you see a cocaine fueled bear in the ring and this has clearly thrown off The Stiffmeister who spends most of the first round avoiding Pablo.  In the second though, he finds a small opening to get a big hit on Pablo who is sent to the ground for a few seconds.  Clearly angered, PabloEscobear gets in some good body blows to The Stiffmeister in the third.  The Stiffmeister finds another clean haymaker in the fourth round and Pablo is down again.  In what seems like deja vu, Pablo once again takes control of the fifth round.  The Stiffmeister is able to circle Pablo and get some quick shots in to end the sixth round.  We're going to the judges decision!

And the judges call: Stiffler the winner.

Judges card:

fs moves around the bear as he moves the ring.

I don't think I've ever seen a bear box before today, but hey, what's life without something new?  Let's get to our next fight!

The fifth fight will be Michael-Corleone versus Nuccio

Corleone looks like he'll not do much but instead starts the first on fire, landing multiple big blows to the body.  Nuccio, clearly stunned, has a hard time finding his footing even in the second round.  A new set of tactics puts Nuccio countering Michael-Corleone's attacks in the third round, but he's figured it out by the fourth as Corleone lands some big hooks to end the round.  Nuccio goes back to his original tactics in the fifth, this time dodging shots and landing plenty of his own.  Corleone toughs out the sixth and gets a few nice shots in to end the fight.  We're going to the judges.

And the judges call: Michael-Corleone the winner.

Judges card:

With a shocked face, fs addresses the crowd.

What an upset!  It just goes to show, you never know who will show up in the ring on any given day!  We're moving on to the next fight.

Up next we have KieranMoore versus HaroldBogtrotter

Kieran comes out fast, clearly moving quicker than Harold.  The first three rounds she moves around him tiring him out only to land some jabs.  Harold seems unphased though and continues pressing forward.  In the fourth round he is able to judge her movement correctly and lands a massive uppercut sending Kieran to the ground.  Kieran, however, seems undeterred.  She continues outpacing Harold through the rest of the fight.  We're going to a judges decision.

And the judges call: KieranMoore the winner.

It seems youth won this time, but that may not always be the case!  What a great night of fights we've had so far, and we're not done yet.  Let's get to the next one, shall we?

The seventh fight of the night will be Wellerman aka The Falling Dutchman versus Polio

The Falling Dutchman does the complete opposite as he comes out running in the first, flustering Polio.  In the second, however Polio finds his ground and gets some very large shots in.  The third starts with Polio looking for another big shot.  As he goes to hit a big haymaker, The Dutchman ducks and rolls to his right to land a clean hook.  Polio is on the ground.  The ref counts down, it's over.

Wellerman is the winner by TKO

fs excitedly grabs the mic

A second knockout! And another quick one at that, awesome!  We have one last fight.  We've seen a bear fight, and now we'll see (fs looks at his card again) a worm?

Our final fight of the night is MichaelRusso versus worm

MichaelRusso spends a good portion of the first round pacing the ring while worm hurls insults at him.  He's not quite sure how to box a worm, which is understandable.  In the second he tries to land a punch, but worm bounces off the ground to land a huge, all be it slimy, uppercut.  MichaelRusso falls down.  It cannot be, but indeed he is unable to stand back up.

worm is the winner by TKO

fs moves back to the ring for a final time.

Well, I'm not actually sure what I just witnessed but I guess we'll have to see more next time.  Congrats to all our winners and thanks to all for showing up.  We'll see you all in a few days for the following matches:

IANYU vs Vala
Estarossa vs Stiffler
Michael-Corleone vs KieranMoore
Wellerman vs worm

After the judge announces the result, Nuccio, with shaky legs, turns to his victorious opponent.

"Well done, Michael-Corleone. Quiet boy, but you have it in you. I took a real beating."

Nuccio bends down, picks up a bloody tooth of Michael's from the floor and hands it to him.

"At least, I was able to make sure that you, too, have a souvenir of our fight. Here, this is yours."

Nuccio thanks his opponent and the organizer, FutureStealer, leaves the ring and turns back to his business.

Does a little bit of a pre-match work out, since the actual fight didn't give him much trouble at all. Doing a few sit-ups right there in the ring after the matches were over, he stands up and yawns to himself.

"Well, better luck to my next opponent."

Walking away, he taps the still dazed Michael Russo on the head and gets ready for his next match against the Wellerman. This shouldn't be too difficult, either as he was quickly proving that his rippling wormy muscles weren't all just for show and could be used to stand tall with the best mafia boxers in the land.

"If anyone would like to do a pre-fight match with me, let me know. I need some real competition because that last fight left much to be desired." 

A little dazed after tripping over his own shoe laces, Polio demanded a rematch as he didn't believe it was a fair fight.

Someone undid my laces when I was in my corner after the 2nd round polio shouted

Polio takes his shoes off and launces them out the ring

After watching the fights, Slade is impressed by both the physical prowess, and the… squirmy prowess of the fighters. A man of many combat abilities, he was too late to join the fights, but always enjoyed the sport and the show. 
 

Great fights everyone. Very impressive indeed. Congrats to all the winners, except maybe that worm fella, he creeps me out just a little with all the slime and the squirming, but still, impressive he managed to score a win. 
 

I want to wish everyone in the next rounds good luck and hope we have some very exciting fights coming up.

Go Stiffler!!!

Pablo wipes the blood from her snout with her big bear paw. She had clearly underestimated her opponent. How could this small, blonde horny man get around her so quickly? Standing up on her hind legs, she bumbles over to Stiffler. Suddenly, the mighty coke bear gives him the biggest bear hug, lifting him up from the ground. To her surprise....he was a bit sticky, so she sits him down rather quickly.

"I've got to say Stiffler, you gave one hell of a fight. No hard feelings and I will see you at the party tonight and we can mack on some fine ass honeys. Now, go forth and make Philly proud!"

She reaches down, placing the coolest sunglasses ever on his tiny, sticky face. 

"You look a lot cooler now. Oh...one last thing, I almost forgot."

Pablo tosses him a shirt that reads "I fought coke bear and all I got was this lame shirt" before running off to find her next fix.
