"Hello, Miko! Welcome to Miami for the fight."
On the boxing ring, Link greeted his opponent.
"Hello!"
Miko nodded blankly without any expression.
The referee came over to read the match rules, and after confirming that there were no objections from both fighters, he swung his arm down vigorously.
"Boxing!"
As the referee's arm went down, the cheering from the crowd also quieted down suddenly, like a string that had been sharply cut.
Yet the two still figures on the boxing ring suddenly sprang into action.
Hearing the referee's command, Link advanced forward, swinging his fists as he launched the first attack on Miko, almost simultaneously Miko also attacked, swinging both fists at Link's head, his punches no weaker than Link's.
Link had already discussed Miko's tactic of opting for offense instead of defense before the match with Coach Brooks and Coach West.
