The Ghost In The Ring

<p>The fight world was buzzing. Jack vs. Nate was all anyone could talk about. Nate made sure to keep the hype going. In interviews, he played the villain role perfectly. "Jack was great. But let's be real—he walked away. He ain't built like me. I live for this shit." On social media, he taunted Jack constantly. "The Ghost? More like The Corpse when I'm done with him." It was all part of the game. But behind the cocky smirk, Nate knew one thing: Jack was dangerous. He had seen the old fights. The way Jack fought through hell against Champion. The way he dismantled opponents with ruthless precision. Nate wasn't stupid. Jack Hayes was a fcking monster. That's why beating him would mean everything.</p>
