Discussing the Anna Schwartz challenge

Back in the gym, Alesia and her coach Maxim have read the news. The challenge issued by Anna Schwartz is at the heart of their discussion.

Alesia: “WTF? Who does that? Anyways, is this the right fight for me? She has 12 and I have only two. This looks like a mismatch. She wants me because I’m the fighter she can beat.”

Maxim: “She will be the favourite in the public eye, but you have to look a little further. You fought 44 times in the amateur ranks, she hasn’t done any of that. She’s good and she won all her pro bouts, but when I look at her previous opponents, I believe she may have been protected by her coach and promoter. This levels the playing field. I think we should accept it.”

Alesia: “Really? Interesting.”

Maxim: “I’m serious. Plus, we have all the tapes of her pro fights and there’s no background outside of boxing that made Akane unpredictable. We’ll have to work hard to win it because she didn’t win 12 fights by being bad, but I think you can pull it off.”

Alesia: “Genau. Let’s call the Zeitung back.”

Maxim: “Give them juicy quotes to sell this fight. This is your chance to boost your reputation.”

Alesia: “They’ll be juicy alright!”
