“The first round set the pattern for the remainder of the fight. Khan, 139 3/4, piled on punches at a rate nearing the Fibonacci sequence. No more running from aggression like he was looking for shelter during an air raid, or clinging to his opponent like a life ring in a shipwreck; Khan stepped just out of Molina’s range after unloading, and in the rare moments when he was pressed against the ropes, he landed quick combinations before sliding away.”

“It’s fitting that junior-middleweight roughneck James Kirkland has accused trainers Ann Wolfe and “Pops” Billingsley of giving him two black pills that left him in a stupor prior to his disqualification victory over Carlos Molina last March. Kirkland’s recent purging of his camp strikes one as a decision concocted under the influence, the type of rash move made by an unruly brat filled to the gills with liquid courage or hopped up on pharmaceuticals.”

As I was about to toss the chicken bones on the floor and conjure up a prediction, my fire alarm went off. There wasn’t any smoke mind you, save for the incense burning to mask the smell in the cauldron. The sharp beep was merely tolling the death of the alarm’s battery. I hadn’t changed it since I moved in, so I suppose that this lesser warning was to be expected. It was only a matter of time. As always, good luck in your predictions leagues.
