Christos Giagos "Spartan"

For those who do not know what MMA stands for, it is Mixed Martial Arts. My boyfriend, Christos, recently fought for the title in Respect the Cage. His opponent Chris Manzo was a very tough competitor, yet not tough enough for Christos. It was the first time I had ever watched Christos cage fight, and I was full of mixed emotion. I was scared, anxious, excited, nervous, nonchalant, worried, and absolutely terrified. He ended up being the 8th fight which meant I had to suffer in stress and worry for 7 fights before his even started. I became antsy and impatient. After seeing so many guys get punched in the face and taken to the ground, I could not even imagine seeing Christos getting hit or even hurt. 
The lights turned down for his fight (he was the main event) and right away I ran to the front next to his sister. I screamed the entire time. His fight was supposed to go 5 rounds for 5 minutes, but Christos KO'd his opponent Chris in the middle of the 2nd round. It was such a good fight and I was so proud of him when he won. His opponent Chris on the other hand was not so lucky. The paramedics came to take care of him as they walked him out on a stretcher. Christos was humble enough to shut the crowd up while they took care of Chris. Christos finally had the belt in his hands and was first to be named as the title. His hard work, determination, and desire to win left him successful in the end. 
Everyone, especially me, was so proud of him. During his speech he thanked everyone for their support including his fans and trainers. Christos then went on to say, "I'd especially like to thank my girlfriend who's supported me, Sami, I love you." It was the first time he had ever said it to me and it was in front of hundreds of people! I was sooooo happy and shocked at the same time. My cheeks turned red and I teared up, but at the same time I could not move. When I saw him I told him I loved him too <3 I am so proud of my boyfriend, Christos Giagos :)
