That guy who's not around much right now
An old gym tonight, a fight for decades to come. The entire building had been refitted to be used as the venue for a battle royale, six former champions, one huge stage, the old cameras still operational.
"Look gents!" the emcee began, the same one from the widespread video, in his baby blue suit with pastel pink undershirt, his shades barely hanging onto his nose. "We've got a big spot tonight, a night for the highlight reels!" a member of the crowd deemed it more important to check his cellphone, which caught him a punch across the jaw, "You weren't even tryin' ta listen you little prick!" he shouted into the mic, illiciting a beating from the others.
"Maybe he'll listen next time," he joked, leaving a short pause before he went on, "Now, the whole building is set up for this fight tonight, last man standing gets the pot! This is a no holds barred fight, you'll be stripped of any weapons, but you can use whatever you find."
More silence... "Now let's see some blood!" he shouted, getting the crowd going. The main lobby of the abandoned building would be for the audience, massive TVs set up along the walls, displaying all the camera feeds at once. The games had been announced globally over the web, but there was no way the local police would be able to handle a gathering like this alone, and any outside assistance would take too long to arrive to catch them. It was easy, anyone interested would arrive with time to spare, and hopefully they'd find some new recruits.
