After an amazing first round of fights fs was eager to get the next set going.  He hustled through his day and it was finally time.  The arena had been filling up for a few hours, but now the lights were bright and the fighters were ready.  He tightened his tie as he prepared to walk out.

Hey, hello, and hi to everyone on this fantastic evening!  I'm so glad to see you all out again for another round of fights.  We've got another great card for you that should hopefully bring us a lot of action. And don't forget, whoever wins today is on to the semi-finals!  Well, let's not delay anymore and let's see some fights!

First up we have IANYU versus Vala

Both fighters start out a bit slowly, feeling each other out in the first.  The second starts with some action as Vala is able to counter what Ian is throwing.  Ian has a switch of strategies and starts moving around the ring more.  This tires Vala out as Ian hits her with a bunch of body blows in the third and fourth.  By the fifth, Vala has figured out the new strategy and is on the offensive.  She makes Ian uncomfortable in the fifth and holds him in the corner through the sixth.   We're going to a judges decision.

And the judges call: Vala the winner.

What a great way to start the night with a clean methodical boxing match.  Let's hope we see some more close fights like that!  We're on to the next one!

Our second fight is Estarossa versus Stiffler aka The Stiffmeister

Esta comes out and uses his quickness to put The Stiffmeister off his game.  However The Stiffmeister finds an opening in the second for a nice combo to slow Esta down a bit.  After the break in the second, however, it seems this just upset Esta as he comes out blazing.  In the third and fourth Esta keeps The Stiffmeister pinned with clean body shots and quick dodges.  In the fifth Esta continues his push by putting together some big combos.  The Stiffmeister starts the sixth knowing he'll need something big and he gets it, after Esta makes a move for a left hook The Stiffmeister dodges and lands a huge haymaker to send Estarossa to the ground.  The ref begins to count down but Esta is able to get back to his feet to finish the fight.  We're headed to the judges.

And the judges call: Estarossa the winner.

Oh wow!  I thought he may have been able to pull out a miracle at the end, but another great fight!  Two more left, so let's get right into it!

Up next we have Michael-Corleone versus KieranMoore

The first bell rings and Kieran is moving quickly through the ring again, dodging hits and land strikes along the way.  As we enter the second, though, Kieran is unable to find the shots and Michael has not quite found his pacing yet.  This changes in the third as Michael stops Kieran's movement with a big right hand.  Kieran responds with a strong fourth focusing on body shots and tiring Michael down.  Michael grabs backs the reigns in the fifth with some big shots, but Kieran is still motivated in the sixth as he closes the fight with a flurry of punches to Michael's face.  We're going to the judges decision.

And the judges call: KieranMoore the winner.

What a back and forth that one was!  I wasn't sure who would pull it out, but it was so clean the entire way!  One more match to go, and I hope it can keep up the hype the rest of the fights have brought.

Our final fight for tonight will be Wellerman aka The Falling Dutchman versus worm

It seems The Falling Dutchman did watch yesterday's fight as he's not as taken aback by worm's stature, but worm still starts out strong with some big hits.  The Falling Dutchman starts the second strong with a right hook to worms chest followed by a left to the head, sending worm to the ground for a moment.  worm comes back in the third with a large set of haymakers.  The Dutchman, undeterred, pushes worm into the corner for much of the fourth.  In the fifth, both fighters are going at it but worm has the upper hand with a few clean combos and one big uppercut.  The sixth round starts and both fighters are gassed, a few punches are thrown but the bells rings to end the match.  We've got another judges decision.

And the judges call: worm the winner.

Another close one!  I can't believe it, we clearly had some very well prepared fighters for tonight's fights.  You guys really got a treat with this one, some very clean boxing.  Congratulations to our winners, and best of luck to our losers in the future.  We'll be back in a few days for the semi finals, which will be:

Vala vs Estarossa
KieranMoore vs worm

Marston enjoyed the first bout, but what he had came to see was the next fight. He watched from the edge of his seat as the second of four fights began. His boss, Stiffler, was up against Estarossa, a tough opponent, but with all the training the Stiffmeister had been doing Marston was confident he could pull of a victory.

The fight was intense from the start, with both fighters landing blows and dodging punches. While Stiffler seemed to be doing more damage to his opponent, Estarossa was clearly landing more scoring shots. His quick jabs kept Stiffler at bay and Estarossa clearly had more points heading into the sixth and final round. As the round drew to a close, it was clear that without a knockout Stiffler was going to lose, and it nearly came, the crowd erupted as the Stiffmeister dodges a left hook and counters with a huge haymaker sending Estarossa crashing to the ground. Marstons celebrations soon ended as somehow the hearty fighter managed to get back to his feet.

The final bell rang, and the crowd erupted into cheers and applause. Both fighters were sweating and panting, their faces contorted in determination and pain. The judges tallied up their scores, and the announcer stepped forward to declare the winner. Marston didn't hold his breath as the announcer read out the verdict, and to his disappointment, his boss had lost by a small margin.

Stiffler looked disappointed but gracious in defeat, shaking Estarossa's hand and congratulating him on a well-fought match. Marston couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment himself, knowing how much money he had placed on Stiffler for the win, it was going to be another month of instant noodles.

"Better luck next time Boss!"
