Fuuuu... that's a disappointing loss. Louis was lighting him on fire in the early rounds, but just couldn't finish him off. Now I'm 0-2-1 in MDT Finals.

Anyway, congrats to Joe Frazier. Hope to see you again in the Super Six, if not before.

[Techno89]

[Crease]

And so the richest man in The Sim, Joe Frazier will immediately be entered into the MDT Roll of Honour and gets a free pass to the most exclusive club in Simland - The Super Six.

Yes yes yes. Very nice set of scuffles. Let’s have This Joe Fella face the number 1 fighter. We don’t need to be carried away in a frenzy of excitability based on a couple of backyard slapfests. Joe, it’s time to clear the confusion and misunderstandings that these derelict donnybrook dalliances may have produced within the pugilistic public’s perception.
