Counting The Lights



“One, Two, THREE!!!”

As the crowd began to cheer and his opponent mumbled some thanks he didn’t mean, the now Ex-Champ stared up at the lights.

It was at moments like this that you began to question everything. As the sounds became more and more distant, he focused on the light above him, the whiteness filling his vision.

All the moments in his past, the training, the long car trips, the drugs, both recreational and business related, the girls, the occasional guy, all of it, it all came flooding in.

Was it worth it, in the end?

Yes, he decided.
