It got even worse this week, as Lights learned that his earlier fight, the one that convinced him he could challenge Reynolds, had been fixed. So he went into the championship fight with nothing in his favor. In trouble with the law, broke, mired in familial strife, at a physical disadvantage, he was the underdog in the fight that could save his family. And shortly after the fight began, it became clear that promoter Barry K. Word had paid off the referee to ensure a Reynolds win. Basically, the only way Lights could win was by knocking out a much stronger opponent.
Dukes!
