The living room is dark, illuminated only by the shifting light of the television screen. Leo, your one-year-old son, gurgles happily in your arms, his small hands waving at the flickering images as Andre's opponent crashes to the canvas. The crowd's roar vibrates through the speakers. On screen, he turns, sweat tracing the lines of his tattooed shoulders, and hoists the championship belt overhead. His gaze finds the camera—finds you. "This is for you, you, my love... And for my son, Leo." The words linger in the quiet room, thick with a devotion that simply will not release its hold.
