2-0. Both fights above a bar. Now he’s training with the middleweight champion — and his body won’t stop responding to the body triangle.
Caleb Torres drives two hours to a windowless facility in an industrial park. His gym bag has duct tape on the strap. The man inside has three belts in a glass case and a resting pulse that nothing in the world can rattle.

The gym empties. Marcus tells him to stay. A guillotine choke becomes something else entirely — his face pressed into the champion’s chest, his pulse hammering, and a single word that rewrites everything: Stay.
