Doug: This board would intrigue an Outsider. Looks like a fight is in progress.

I hear a group urging CS to beat Mr Estimate. Is that his name , no it's not. I hear a group of CS supporters shouting hitting Point O Six. Perhaps that was Mr Estimates pet name. That punch from CS looked it would bring the house down. Many seemed to agree except for the upper stands. There is a yell from those benches. Sounds like "Falling short". The man next to me whispers any thing is possible. A stranger in the group shouts watch CPQ. He seems a loner thats new to the group. A member of the group yells back. Not CPQ its TKO.

Down in the pits, I see the 2 trainers Mr Bull and his junior Mr Bear
talking to each other. They look exhausted after this last round. At last the bell rings. The staduim is now quiet whilst CS and Mr Estimate continue glaring at each other from their respective corners. The score cards are being totalled up. In a few moments that eerie silence will end.

This has been an important contest. If CS wins he moves on to the World stage. I am sure more fights with heavy Contenders will be lined up in bigger stadiums.

The referee is getting ready to make the announcement. I sense the excitement and nervousness in the crowd at all age levels. There appears a group that looks most affected.They are called "New Investors". From where I sit, they look as if each of them has a special bag. My colleague just whispered that it is a Diaper bag. As an ex cult member he would know.

Well I would have liked to brought you the verdict. Unfortunately my time is running short. Hope you enjoyed the fight.!
