“Hector, you about finished?” Mr. Torrez, the garage manager asks.

“One minute.” I raise my arms to tighten the bolts on this boss Mustang. I’m down in the well, hot and sweaty as I change the oil. One day when I’m an MMA champ, a car like this will be mine.

“Let’s go. They’re lining up.”

Last night, my arm was raised in victory as I defeated another fighter in hand-to-hand combat. This morning, it is raised to perform rote tasks at a hot and sweaty job for less than minimum

wage. But I shouldn’t complain. Mr. Torrez kept me on even after he let my dad go. He liked my work ethic, but I got lucky in that he’s also an MMA fan. He pays me only a fourth of what I make in cash, and the rest he sends directly to Mr. Hodge to pay for my training.

“Line ‘em up, and I’ll knock ‘em down,” I whisper to myself. Last night was the first of many victories in the ring. Outside the ring, though, it seems all I have is a string of losses.
