Boxing With Style by AlexBoxer on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

This one gave me another lesson in everything being relative. My impression while the action was under way was that this wasn't really what it looked like. Kayleigh had some good defensive moments, but not all of them opened up lanes for her to counter through. Meanwhile, Yennifer still got her shots in along the way. So, yeah... Kayleigh's dance routine LOOKED better in this round, but I found myself wondering how the stats would add up.

Then we get to the break and discover the stats don't really matter because the one thing that would put Kayleigh firmly in the driver's seat is if Yennifer lost her cool. Well, guess what? Instead of talking strategy, she was talking about smashing things. Which, hey... I think we all know that's a mentality I can get behind. But maybe not the best choice against someone who knows what she's doing.

So, Martina said the right things, and Yennifer seems resolved to go with the plan. But now I have to wonder how long that resolve will last once Kayleigh starts dancing again.
