Challenges Issued And Accepted

As New York recovers from super storm Sandy, it needs to brace itself for yet another storm that's a-brewing; and at its center is a new 52 Blocks vs Baguazhang challenge. After an explosive set of exclusive interviews with the Blacktaoist, Nakmeezy, Maoshan, and Lyte Burly that all ended on high notes, I decided to leave any further situations between the gentlemen alone for the sake of trying to keep things positive; however, things took an interesting turn as of late. 52 Blocks practitioner and teacher Mr 52 issued a challenge to the Blacktaoist to which the Blacktaoist has recently accepted.

The terms of acceptance are straight-forward, here's an approximate breakdown:

• The venue- Man Up Stand Up (MUSU) competition
• Date- some time in February 2013
• Money-  if Lyte Burly fights the cut will be 60-40, but if he doesn't then the bout between Mr52 and Blacktaoist is winner takes all. 
• MUSU ruleset
• Duration- three 5 minute rounds. 

An interesting twist to this event is the Blacktaoist would like to have Lyte Burly and Nakmeezy participate as well. Lyte Burly can fight one of his students or other people from MUSU who are interested in crossing hands with him and Nakmeezy can fight MUSU's 6 time champ DJ.

Initially I was staying away from this story but since both gentlemen are stressing a respectful match, I decided to post it. The details are being worked out between all parties and we'll keep you posted.
