Tina began to walk up into the ring when Bette grabbed her arm. “You need this.” Bette popped a mouth piece into Tina’s mouth. Bette stepped back and stood along the ring watching Tina slide through the ropes. She could tell Tina was scared but this was the only way she would ever be able to box. She needed to learn to fight properly and defend herself.

Tina moved her head from side to side jumping from one foot to the other. She threw a couple jabs into the air to warm up.

Bette went over to the other boxer’s side. “Alright, Dana. Give her everything you’ve got. This will help her prepare for the real deal and as for you.” Bette slapped Dana’s ass to hurry her into the ring. Tina looked over at Bette shaking her head that she didn’t want to do this.

As she was looking at Bette, Dana came up quickly on Tina throwing a right hand lead to Tina’s head. Tina stumbled back falling against the ropes.

Bette rolled her eyes. “Tina, get up and Fight her! Pay fucking attention to what is going on!”

Bette was hurt over what happened last night and felt today she kept it business related and maybe even taking some anger out on Tina would help. But watching Tina, Bette knew what she was feeling was running much deeper.

Tina got back up on to her feet and immediately put her arms up in a defensive position. Dana threw a couple punches missing as Tina had bobbed and weaved. Tina threw a couple jabs to Dana’s head causing Dana to bring her arms up to her head. Once she did, Tina had begun to throw jabs at Dana’s midsection. When she saw that Dana was really light on her feet from all the blows to her gut, she wounded up her arm and threw a haymaker right at her side. This punch was known mostly as the kidney shot. Dana made a sound as if all the air had left her body. She fell down to her knees trying to catch her breath.

Bette looked up at Tina slightly shocked at how fast Tina got Dana down. She smiled up at her. “That was good. But you do need to use the whole ring to tire out your opponents more. They all fight differently.”
