Chapter 559

• The noise of the crowd was deafening, and it reverberated around the old warehouse. I shook my head and drowned out the crowd. Everything around me disappeared, everything except Falcon. I kept my focus on him as we circled each other. He came in fast, landing two shots to either side of my ribs. His punches were hard and accurate, and I could feel the two cracked ribs on my left side.
• He came at me again, lightning fast, and I ducked under his arm. He grabbed my arm, and somehow hooked my other arm into his, and we stood back-to-back. He bent forward, and I went over him backwards.
• His arms were on the inside now, and I took that opportunity to land a few punches to his ribs, and another one to his face, as he brought his arms down to protect his sides. He wasn’t an average fighter, he was the best I’d fought against so far.
