Eye of the Tiger!!!

The fighters were in their corners waiting for the bell to ring. A resounding "ding" is heard in the distance. They meet in the middle of the ring, tap gloves and prepare for battle. After dancing around the ring trying to get a feel for their opponent, the gloves start flying. Leather against flesh. Man against man....... Alright, boy against boy.

In the red corner, weighing in at 62 pounds, Tanner "T-Bone" Stephens. His opponent, in the blue corner, weighing in at 83 pounds, Mark "The Shark" Stephens.

After watching Rocky 1-3, my boys have decided that they ARE Rocky. The battle ensues. After a full round of jabbing, punching, uppercuts and even a few crane kicks for good measure, they are sent back to their corners to await the judges decision.

A draw.

However, T-Bone landed one great punch to the eye of The Shark and split him open - a feat that both were ridiculously excited about. Thankfully, a trip to the doctor was deemed unnecessary. The Shark walked away with a super cool tough guy type injury and T-bone relished the fact that he can rip apart an opponent 20 lbs heavier.

Eye of the tiger baby. Eye of the tiger.
