Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Takedown successful

Michael Bosley and Daniel Greene resumed their commentary as the second round approached.

"Welcome back, folks," Michael said, his voice lively. "What an intense first round we just witnessed. Damon Cross and Mark Handerson are giving us a real show. Damon has been using his skills to keep Mark at bay, but Mark's coach has given him some crucial advice during the break."

Daniel Greene nodded in agreement. "Absolutely, Michael. Mark was getting frustrated, but he's now aware of his mistakes. We should see some adjustments this round. If he manages to use his wrestling and feints effectively, he could turn things around."

The bell rang to start the second round, and both fighters quickly moved to the center of the cage.

Mark seemed more focused, moving with purpose as he feinted a jab and then shot in for a takedown. Damon anticipated it well, stepping back and using his knee to block Mark's advance.
