Well, let me tell you somethin’ about this Elijah Pierce fella. That boy, he sure can throw a punch! He’s in that weight class, you know, the one they call super bantamweight or somethin’. 122 pounds, they say. He ain’t the biggest fella, but he’s tough as nails, I tell ya.
He had a fight not too long ago, against a fella named Sanmartin. And guess what? Elijah Pierce won! Everyone said he won, fair and square. They have these cards, you see, and they write down who’s winnin’. And them cards all said Elijah was the best. 99-91, 97-93, somethin’ like that. He’s a real fighter, that one.
They got these rankings, you know, like a list. And Elijah Pierce, he’s number 18 out of 68 in his weight class. That’s pretty good, if you ask me! He’s from the United States, and he’s number 96 out of 379 in the whole country. He stands like this, they call it southpaw. Don’t ask me why, that’s just what they call it.
He’s won 9 fights in a row now, after moving to the right weight class. I heard he’s ready to fight for the big one, the World Title! Can you believe it? That Elijah Pierce, fightin’ for the World Title. He used to fight bigger fellas, three divisions above him, he did, and he even beat a fella named Juan Carlos Pena. This Pena fella, he had won 32 fights! But Elijah, he beat him good!

- They call him “The WXXXLF”, I reckon that’s his nickname.
- He’s 27 years old, still a young’un.
- He’s won 19 fights and lost 2. That’s a lot of fights!
I saw him fight once. Boy, oh boy, he was somethin’ else! He moved so fast, and his punches were like lightning. He was dancin’ around, avoidin’ the other fella’s punches. And then, BAM! He’d hit him with a good one. He’s got that power, you see. That’s what you need in this fightin’ business.
They have all these numbers, you know, about how tall he is, how much he weighs, how far he can reach. I don’t understand all that, but I know he’s a good fighter. He’s got that look in his eye, like he’s gonna win no matter what. They call it determination.
They say he’s a real talent in his weight class. I reckon that means he’s good at what he does. This Inoue fella, he is the king of this weight class. Elijah gonna have to fight him one day, I bet. That will be a fight to see, for sure!
