Yo Adrian! Putin Calls a Time Out! (Kinda Like When Apollo Went Down)

Cut Me Mick! (This Peace Talk is Painful)

Yo Adrian! Heard about this? Putin he's callin' for a three day ceasefire in Ukraine. Says it's for the 80th anniversary of when the Soviets and their buddies won World War II. May 8th to the 10th no more fightin' at least on their end. It's like me tryin' to go a round with Apollo Creed without trainin'. Sounds good right? But then you get hit with reality like a right hook from Clubber Lang!

Gonna Fly Now? More Like Gonna Stall Now!

The Kremlin that's Putin's crew they're sayin' everyone should play nice during these three days. And if Ukraine messes up? BAM! Russia's gonna hit back harder than I hit Drago! This whole thing reminds me of tryin' to explain to Adrian why I gotta fight. It's complicated see? But it's gotta be done.

Eye of the Tiger? More Like Eye Roll from Kyiv!

Now Ukraine? They ain't sayin' nothin' yet. Last time Putin tried this with that Easter ceasefire it was messier than a cheesesteak after twelve rounds. Both sides were swingin' even when they weren't supposed to. Like when I promised Adrian I'd quit and then… well you know.

Trump Card? Or Just a Tap on the Chin?

Word on the street is this whole ceasefire thing? It's Putin tryin' to look good for Trump. Showin' him Russia wants peace. But Ukraine and the rest of Europe? They ain't fallin' for the rope a dope. They think Putin's just tryin' to pull a fast one like when Paulie tries to fix the odds on my fight.

Adriaaaaan! It's Getting Heavy!

Trump even said Putin was "just tappin' me along" after a bad attack. Now Washington's threatenin' to throw in the towel if things don't get real. This whole situation's heavier than Drago's punches Adrian! It's a mess a real mess. But hey 'It ain't about how hard you can hit but about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.' So maybe there's hope yet.

Yo Maybe Peace Needs a Montage!

So what's next? I don't know Adrian. But if peace was a fight it'd be a tough one. We gotta train harder believe in ourselves and maybe just maybe we can go the distance. Just like when I fought Apollo nobody thought I could do it but I did it for Adrian!
