Matt's fights were....interesting. the first guy he fought, he knocked out within the 1st
15-20 seconds. He did a spinning roundhouse + jumping backroundhouse combo right smack in
the face. The guy was ok, though. Afterward, Matt was walking with a
limp...dont' know why, looked like he was drunk :)
Brandon was an animal. It was a close fight, and the other guy was a bit
crazy. Overall, Brandon did really well. I didn't get to watch the entire
thing, though because I was watching Jennifer and Nicole's fights. Brandon hurt his
knee somehow. He was walking with a limp as well.
Jennifer had to fight this "big" girl, since there were no weight divisions.
It wasn't really Jenny's day, because she wasn't feeling well. Poor her.
But she did well.
Nicole fought before Jenny did. Both of Nicole's opponents were bigger than she is.
(party when nicole reaches 100 lbs!!!) she got some good points in.
I didn't get to see much of Michael's fight, but what I saw of it, he was tearing the
other guy apart. Got kicked in the butt, though, I think. He said his butt hurt.
I...dont' know how my fight went. I did a jumping backside in the 2nd round for
Nicole, though, cuz she wanted me to :) it was a little low (i got her in the hip) so i
don't think it was a point. Before the fight, she was bragging about her gold medals
from previous tournaments. I just sat there and listened. After the fight, I
apologized for breaking her streak. She was alright w/ that. She's very nice.
So now we all get to go to AAU Nationals and the Jr. Olympics. For AAU, nationals is end
of June-beginning of July, in Iowa. AAU Jr. Olympics is end of july-beginning of August,
in Columbus, OH.
that's all for now! luv ya,
jackiewuwu!!
