| Apparently I'm not much of a boxer
We decided to have a wonderful boxing tournament tonight after several beers. It was fun, no doubt, but I learnt today that either Europeans can kick us American's ass, or I'm not much a boxer.
We did three round tournaments, against any opponent of our choice. I took down my one friend no problem with a nasty hay maker. That part was fun. Next up I challenged the Romanian kid from Transylvania, who's a bit meatier than me but about same height. I thought I could take him no problem, boy was I wrong. The match started out pretty even with some weak jabs. I decided to go for the knockout, with a left upper cut to the chin, and tried to follow it up with a hay maker. The upper cut landed solidly but it didn't phase him and he ducked out of the a way of the right fist. He followed it up with a nasty punch of his own right to the left temple/eye area. And that was it for me. It's swollen up pretty sweat, and some decent bruising already. I'm hoping for a really sweet black eye, so I can look like a bad ass. |
