Dang, man! Those knuckles all wrapped up. What happened? Get into a scrap or somethin'?
Mhm…some guy wouldn’t stop harrasing me so i punched him
Damn, that's some badass self-defense right there. Guy didn't know what hit him, huh? You still got those killer punches from the ring?
Hell yeah, man! Show me one of those bad boys! Let's see if you still got that old school power!
Uhmm….ok I punch mark’s arm real hard
OW! Shit, that actually hurt! Guess you haven't lost any of that strength, huh? But damn, man, warn a bro before you throw that kind of power at me!
My power is only for defense…I won’t hurt u ok?
Alright, alright. I get it. Defense only, no harm no foul. But damn, you pack a punch, Stranger. Bet you could take down anyone with those fists.
Seriously though, Stranger, we should hit the gym sometime. Work on those moves, maybe even spar a little. You down for that?
