Project Punch-Out: Week 1

With the highs of Ultimate Grand Prix III fresh in mind, a new era begins!

The first week of Project Punch-Out promises a hard road ahead, but revealed plenty of potential from the young contender: little-mac! He entered the fray a little wiser than expected, having made a surprise UGPIII Battle Royal appearance the night before! He entered #7 in the random draw, only to be eliminated quickly by MKR in fifth sequence. It was an unceremonious defeat, but the perfect warm-up for his first shot at The Project Punch-Out Minor Circuit!

The opening stages presented little-mac with fair game, his first opponents approximate equals with only one match between them. The Greek rookie proXade took a hit in his debut match, before Thailand's Lays suffered similar fate, his second career loss. little-mac showed signs of improvement in all three bouts, but against EasterBunny he found himself outgunned!

With a career record of 7-21-1, EasterBunny is something of a Great Arena veteran!
His Grand Prix-Show Battle Royal appearance spilled over into an unlikely grudge match with Zmoke at UGPIII. It was EasterBunny's second UGP appearance - a record that is yet to garner success, but is still a measure of his tenure within the fighting ranks!

little-mac will get his shot at retribution when he returns with a career record of 2-3-0, next week! It promises to be an intriguing rematch when the Project Punch-Out kid takes on the furry furnace: little-mac v EasterBunny II - April 15th, 2013!
