Raise that hand up high champ!! Congrats Phil!!

Wow, what a night!  Saturday night, Eric and I headed down to Oxnard to watch our very own Phil “The Vanilla Gorilla” Palmer do battle in “The Guns and Hoses” charity boxing match.  The night was filled with knock outs, flurries of excited punches, a drunk fat lady behind us obnoxiously screaming, “upper right, upper right” for some unknown reason, and a few unfortunate ring girls that must have had to give all of their food money to their plastic surgeons. Well folks, Phil was awesome!!  He came out swinging and for 3 solid rounds rained leather down on his poor opponent.  The Gorilla ate a solid punch in the second round, brushed it off, and was clearly the more dominant fighter evidenced by the fact that he was awarded a unanimous decision by the judges!
Needless to say, we’re very proud of you Phil.  It takes a lot of courage to put your butt on the line and get in the ring for any reason.  It takes even more to keep your head and emotions in check for 8 weeks in order to be able train and prepare for such an event.  Congratulations on great preparation and a great win!
