Vahid Zare vs. Zak Lenning...

"Introducing, he's wearing the green trunks with white trim, weighing in at 216½ pounds, he's from the city of Musutafu, Japan. With an amateur record of 9 wins and 7 losses. Ladies and gentlemen, Zak Lenning!"

Some of the crowd cheered as Zak walked around the ring, pumping one fist in the air.

"And his opponent, he's wearing the red trunks with black trim, weighing in at 232 1/4 pounds, he's from the city of Musutafu, Japan. Coming up in street fights, making his professional debut. Ladies and gentlemen, Vahid Zare!"

A small portion of the crowd cheered.

Vahid stood there, completely still, not bothering to move a single inch as he stared at his opponent.

The referee called them to the middle and laid out the rules.

Zak Lenning held out his arm to touch gloves, but Vahid didn't move, only glared at him.

The referee forced them to touch gloves and sent them back to their corners.

The bell rang, signaling the first round.

Lenning marched forward with his hands held high as Zare took small steps forward, Lenning stood Orthodox while Zare stood Southpaw.

Lenning threw a jab at Zare that Zare slipped to the right.

Zare threw an overhand left as he slipped, hitting Lenning clean on the nose.

Lenning dropped immediately, unmoving.

The referee immediately called off the fight when he saw Lenning's obviously-battered nose.

Lenning's nose was crooked in all shapes and sizes, and the skin was as red as a Twizzler.

Vahid walked backwards back to his corner.

Vahid Zare vs. Lexer Cuffingham...

Zare slowly marched forward with baby steps, his guard high and his legs slightly bent.

Cuffingham lunged at Zare with a right hook, which Zare ducked under.

Cuffingham was now off-balance, and Zare threw a right hook to Cuffingham's torso, sending him to the floor.

Cuffingham's chest was red as an apple, and he struggled to breathe.

3-0

Vahid Zare vs. Divol Russell...

Zare walked on baby steps forward, analyzing his opponent's movements.

Russell waited for Zare's move.

He got it.

Zare threw a quick jab that sent Russell stumbling to the ropes.

Zare twisted his punch mid-way to slide through Russell's guard and land square on the nose at lightspeed, the punch so fast, the cameras barely picked it up.
