Description
Ding!
Reiko rolled her shoulders as she stepped back into the center of the ring, facing off against the Korean boxer 'Ha-Yun Shin' for a third round. She had to give the Korean boxer some credit, she was quick to adapt her strategy and skills to counter Reiko's kicks which are more than she can say for a few other boxers she's faced, but Ha-Yun simply wasn't able to match Reiko blow for blow and add on top of the fact that Reiko was a brawler, to begin with, she always came out on top in an exchange and it showed. Ha-Yun's shoulders sagged as one gloved hand hung low near her belly to nurse her brutalized core, her expression showed how tired she was and she had an obvious limp in her gait from all the times Reiko would simply take advantage of targeting her legs with kicks.
Reiko, on the other hand, was still standing tall, the only signs of damage were a busted lip and a couple of bruises on her cheeks and obliques which didn't seem to bother her much at all. While Reiko couldn't match the boxer's finesse and technique, she could simply out-tank and out-trade her. And she used that to her full advantage to end the fight.
Stepping in Reiko traded an uppercut to Ha-Yun's stomach as she ate a hook from the Korean boxer. A second hook landed flush on Reiko's face just in time for Reiko to grab Ha-Yun's head and slam a knee straight into her belly causing her to gasp loudly as all the air was forced out of her lungs. Reiko then shoved her away towards the ropes, adding a little momentum with a front kick that landed on her chest. Bouncing off the ropes Ha-Yun tried to come back at Reiko but was caught completely off guard as Reiko buried the heel of her foot into Ha-Yun's belly with a spinning back kick. The force of the blow took Ha-Yun off of her feet and flung her into the ropes, spittle and blood flying from her mouth as what little air was left in her lungs was forced out of her body.
As Reiko stepped back for a follow-up strike Ha-Yun Crumpled to the floor face first, holding her gloves tight against her belly. Reiko stopped herself before the ref came in and started the count, before the ref could get to five however Ha-Yun tapped her glove on the mat, signaling she wasn't able to continue.....
Turning on her heel Reiko walked back to her corner and clambered out of the ring. After she hopped down she pulled her boxing gloves off and tossed them towards one of her companions dressed in a black suit with a red tie.
“If we're going to do this again, find me something where I don't have to wear those hand warmers in a fight.” Reiko grunted as she strode off towards the lockers, her companions in tow.

Ha-Yun is probably going to stick to boxing for a while after this...
