Today was a big day for Blake in the Academy...they had to box each other. I know your thinking whats the big deal?! They start them out with a really hard workout until they are so tired. Then they throw them on the mats with the Swat team and wrestle them. Blake told me it that was the hardest part of the day, because they pretty much hold them down and cover their faces so they can't breath. Just imagine not being able to breath and at the same time trying to get some riped swat guy off you. After they wrestle the Swat team they fight each other. Blake was matched up with a guy in his class with the last name Magneto, yes like from x-men. He has 10 years wrestling experience, so Blake just knew he was going to get his butt kicked. Now most of you know Blake and he is definitely not your fighting type. Well he has proved us wrong. Even when he was super exhausted he still managed to knock Magneto out. I am pretty sure he said he got one upper cut shot and he fell to the ground. Only bad thing about that is then Blake had to fight his trainers for two rounds. He said they wailed on him and he didn't have a chance against them. Blake did manage to get a left hook on one of his trainers, and his mouth piece flew out. Once Blake realized what he did he said " Oh CRAP", and then came the upper cut to his chin from his trainer that sent Blake to the ground. I laughed when Blake was telling me about this because about a week or two ago one of his class mates told him whatever you do DON'T hit the trainers in the face. They get really mad. Blake said he was just throwing punches and was so tired he didn't realize what he did until it was over and he was on the ground.
Blake did survive all the fighting and said his back, chest, jaw and nose hurts. and he might have a broken pinky toe. He has no clue how that happened or when it happened. Way to go Blake! I had no clue he was a fighter. I am so proud of him and all his hard work!
