Well, here we go: judge JDiego's decision

The fight goes to b1.

Two worthy, worthy opponents. One hopes there will be a rematch (after several months of taunting, of course), but these seven rounds are over, and it looks like it's the homeboy over the awayboy by one round.

Round seven, two punch-drunk fighters weaving around the ring. va gets off a strong send-up of ol' Cap'n Hops--very well played. However, b1 had already poured the last of his remaining strength into a pangrammatic effort worthy of (dare I say?) Haikus from Hell. His last push was enough to slide this one over the top and into the laps of the judges. (hmmmm, something kind of creepy about that image...)

My hats, all of them, are off to these two brave and powerful haikugilists!

vegan dances like
Astaire, jabs like Ali in
bigmouth verbal prime

b1 bomber, well,
he may not move as fast, but
his punch? all Foreman.

Congratulations! And please let me know when and where the next fight takes place. (Maybe Vegas??)

For the next Haiku Slugfest™, might I suggest that each combatant submit one challenge and then respond to both of the challenges submitted. That way the playing field is more level and it is easier to compare the efforts to each other.
