Project Punch-Out: Week 2

26 fighters, 3 circuits, 1 challenger! Project Punch-Out brings together the greatest international fighters of the league for a single purpose: To test the limits of a fresh new contender! Borrowing concepts from Project Goldberg, Project Zenkai, The Championship World Tour & The Kombat Fight League -- this new initiative strives to create the perfect warrior! The Challenger selected is little-mac - a new name whose legacy will be determined by his ability to fight through opponents of increasing difficulty!

An exciting first week gives way to a harsh follow-up as little-mac faces his first rematch!

Having come up short against EasterBunny at the conclusion of Week 1, little-mac would get his second chance at glory in the open of Week 2. If he was successful, his quest through The Minor Circuit would have continued. Alas; the school of hard knocks was in full effect as the challenger endured a demoralizing second appearance. Victory would elude him entirely - dealt first by the narrowest of margins by EasterBunny -- only to be followed by another bitter defeat at the hands of relative newcomer: Lays!

It will be the task of little-mac to refocus after this worst case scenario of a double defeat! Fortunately for mac: Week 1 proved he has what it takes to defeat the Thai onslaught of his statistic equal: Lays! Also working in his favor -- the fact that he has very little to lose, still cutting his teeth at the bottom of The Minor Circuit. Per Project Punch-Out rules: little-mac will be forced to start The Minor Circuit from the beginning after suffering a third weekly loss [not including rematches].

With a career record of 3-7-0; little-mac may be far away from the unbeaten standard set by Project Goldberg's 99-1: nface -- but the experience is already mounting! The sweet science of combat will be under the microscope when we resume next week for little-mac v Lays: The Rematch - April 22, 2013!
