After the big wave of emotions, it was 1pm, Jacob had to run 5 miles on the treadmill. While on waiting the others went to have lunch at the food stand that was in the stadium, they sat down in the stadiums stands, there was no one there, only the cleaning crew at the light crew preparing things. Emma then said:"Guys can you believe this, are friend Jacob is actually gonna boxer in one of the biggest rings in the world with thousands of people watching here and on the televisions. If he wins we will become famous, even if he doesn't actually ". None of them could believe their eyes, their friend fighting one of the best boxers in the country.
Once Jacob was done running he needed to take a 30 min nap max and then warm up again. At 1:30pm Luck JJ, the 2nd best boxer in the country arrived at the stadium, Jacob and him met, we was really nice to Jacob saying everything gonna be okay, that he just has to never give up. Luke JJ was 39 and Jacob was only 19 so it was gonna be hard for Jacob to beat him. At 2pm the crowd started coming in the stadium. There was 110 000 seats available in this stadium. At about 3:30 pm it was packed, everyone was ready. The group who where with Jacob had to take their seats, they were at the front row of the fight. All of them said:"Good luck Jacob you can do this !!!! ", then Alix who was the last to leave, told him:" Ignore the people around you, focus on your opponent and you will be good, I believe in you new best friend. If you win we will go get ice cream after, and I will pay. YOU GOT THIS JACOB ". Jacob laughed and hugged her while saying thank you. Alix then had to quickly go to her seat.
Jacob and Luke were next to each other waiting for the host to call out their names. Luke said to Jacob:"Good luck mate, after the fight no hard feelings okay? ", Jacob replied while laughing nervously:"Don't worry, good luck to you to". The host then called out Luke JJ name, Luke said:" Here I go, see you on the other side Jacob". Jacob was really then stating to get nervous, he was shivering. Luckily his coach was next to him to comfort him, he said: " I have know you since you came into my gym 7 years ago, I always though you could make it, and look at yourself now, you did. So put your big boy gloves on and show them who you really are !! ". Jacob was feeling much better. He was in black and white, his shorts had written in red MILLS. He suddenly heard the host say:" Now ladies and gentlemen I present to you a new young contestant, aged 19, this is his first ever big fight so please put your hands together for JACOBBBBB MILLLSSS ".
Suddenly Jacob came out with his hands up owning the stadium, he put his fear a side and walked like a boss to the ring where Luke was waiting. He could see his friends cheering him up like mad. He then sees next to them his grandma. He never expected her to come, she looked lost but Jacob didn't care because she made the effort to come even tho she didn't know why she was here. She suddenly saw Jacob and recognises him saying:" That's.. That's my boy. ". Jacob was so pleased she was here with him together, it's the only family he had here today, he expected his dad not to show up to one of the most important event in his life.
