Award Tour Vol. 27: Two Possible Conclusions

A fight in the desert. Sounds like a good idea. Away from civilization, Apocalyptic back drop... young warriors line up for battle. It's like Pay Per View for teens without money. It's a great idea I suppose - (as long as you aren't the one that loses the fight). But hey... someone's got to lose right? {Enter the main character.}

At the beginning… you know he's hopped up on adrenaline… He is also, inexplicably, the crowd favorite - evidenced by how they chant his name fervently during the pre-fight warm up. Chino! Chino! Chino! The other fighter's name isn't even mentioned. It is his rabid fan base (and perhaps stupidity), that could best explain Chino's eagerness to take on a man much larger than himself. With little pomp and circumstance, the two Chino (and that-other-guy) square off.

As the fight ensues Chino bores forward and he is acquitting himself well...

...well, for the first 0:58 seconds anyway. At the 0:59 second mark, fate dealt Chino a cruel hand (odds are it was probably a right also). At the 0:59 second mark, Chino drops his left just for an instant, but the opening is big enough for the that-other-guy to throw a Right Hand to his chin that lets "freedom ring". After his meeting with the Five Finger Taser, Chino is sent immediately on a one-way trip (all expenses paid) to Spaghetti Leg Junction. As you watch the Chicken Leg Dance performed by Chino... you're thinking something to yourself. I know what it is - cause I though it too.

"When Grandfather offered to teach you the ways of Shaolin...

...it was probably a mistake not to take him up on the offer." (Admit it, you were thinking it too).

He might not know it, but the confrontation is effectively over at this point... Chino is as much a spectator to the fight as you are. As you watch the video, you get the sense that he's watching the fight via an Out-of-Body-Experience... probably wondering out loud the same thing as you, "what's keeping this guy up on his feet?"

To his credit, Chino somehow takes his punishment on his feet, and towards the end lands (or maybe I should just say "throws") a series of "honor salvaging" Cotton Candy Rights that merely graze the other fighter. At least Chino can say he went out swinging.

Amazingly as the fight ends, his friends (the ones who cheered him full-throttle into this a$$ whoopin) have to tell Chino that the fight is over, leading to me to two possible conclusions:

a). He has been beaten so badly, he doesn't know that he doesn't actually want anymore.
b). He has returned from his Out-of-Body-Experience and is searching for an explanation as to why he is puffy, swollen, and bleeding.
