Below The Belt : A Novella of Bare Knuckles Boxing

By: Al Al Lamanda

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Thirty-two years prior, Chase financed his ranch by fighting in illegal, bare knuckles prize fights across the country. After many fights, his final fight against a top fighter named Rooker gives him enough money to buy a ranch in Wyoming.
When Chase beats Rooker, trouble is guaranteed when the fight promotor and his daughter Bond, lose their bankroll and want it back. Promotor, Bond and two henchmen hold up Chase and gunpoint after the fight and take a bag they believe has Chase’s prize money. It doesn’t and they make off with Chase’s dirty underwear instead.
Thirty-two- years later, Chase is a successful rancher, Rooker is his foreman and he lives with his daughter-in-law and grandson RJ. Estranged from his drug addicted son and now a widow, things go bad when Chases’ son wanders into a Vegas casino owned by Bond, who has been waiting decades for revenge against Chase.
Bond, her brother Brud and her sons Sean and Finn, hatch a scheme to coax Chase back into the ring in Wyoming, where bare knuckles boxing is now legal.
First they kidnap Chase’s son and then his grandson. The ransom is a fight between the bare knuckles champion and Chase, who is twice his age.
Having no choice, Chase agrees to one last fight to save his family.
