The Defeated Champion

The stake was powerful The audience were cheerful The atmosphere was tight Both fighters were ready to fight Leo looked into past glories So many titles and sweet stories He became eager and curious Winning again was damned obvious He laughed and stepped into the ring And charged like the Lion King The fight stay on round upon round And on the fifth he fell to the ground He tries to stand but fell again He struggles and cried in pain He could not believe he lost the battle Nor believe someone got the mantle
