Detail:
There isnt really much to say. Our night was full of watching fights and enjoying the atmosphere of the evening. Most of the crew arrived before myself and Westie as we uncounted some very length delays due to some electric/gas work in our neck of the woods. Myself and Westie arrived at the location and were greeted by Scott and Oigen who took us to our dressing room where the waiting began.
While myself and Bardello tried to sort out what was going on as it was chaotic and the event organizers were running around like chickens with their heads cut off. We were told we had to be there for 5pm for a security briefing from Jupiters staff. After waiting for while and eventually finding out we were placed in the wrong room we finally had our briefing at 6:15.....
We were then met with more waiting and fight watching until 9pm when we were told to suit up and suit up we did. At 9:15 we were told that there was one more fight and the band would play a song.
Let me tell you a little about this fight. This fight was a womans fight and the two competitor were on two different wave lengths. The lady in the red corner seemed like your average lady but as the presenter was reading out her career we found out that she had won some 15 professional fights but this was nothing compared to the lady in the blue corner. The lady in the blue corner is a discus gold medalist the current world heavy weight champion and had a 30kg lead. As soon as the bell was rung you could tell the lady in blue was scared, I too would have been. Sadly she did not last very long and I think gave in half way through the first round.
So we quickly returned to finish suiting up and getting in formation our big entrance.
So here we are standing in line listening to the band play one song....two songs....three songs and just as they went to start another song their music was cut as the DJ took over :P and the presenter started to call out Matty's stats and then as he said his name the doors opened and we walked out to skipping music. It seemed as though the DJ had managed to scratch my disc somewhere through the night. Oh well we marched out and stood in front of the stage as Matty did his poses for the cameras. Matty then lead us around the ring where some idiot tried to slap Muppets helmet off and where some idiot thought it would be a good idea to pull a chair out in front of me....Oh well we continued around the ring and headed for the back to watch the fight and pose for photos. Matty's fight was a good one. He came out strong and full of energy, He landed blow after blow with his opponent taking a beating. Second round was a different story both fighters were landing good blows until half way through where Matty's opponent delivered a stupendous upper cut and took a tooth from what I hear and that appeared to be it for Matty. Third round Matty stayed strong and kept delivering fast and hard blows, in the end it went to the judges and sadly Matty lost. So we headed back to the changing rooms and dearmoured and that was it. We all went on our merry way with out the world ending :P
