Good start for Jirov in the tourney....

[kevo]

Lucky win for Dariusz, De Leon coming in overweight!

[BoxBuzz]

Liles....fighting for a cause.....cringing from the injustice of the season.....and imposing his will on Lights out.

anger is never a healthy way to thrive....but along with contempt for the system.... it's all our stable has left.

And thus far, it appears to be leaving a barren landscape in it's wake.
