Box On - The last touring Boxing Troupe of Australia by Chris Sattlberger
"Yes, they're all just getting ready on the inside. They are just putting on their gloves. Roll up, ladies and gentlemen, it's all live and real here. I'll bring 'em on the outside in a minute, and it's gonna cost you nothing; they're just getting ready, so roll up, come over to Bell's Boxing Tent!" Mike Karoitiana is strutting up and down the narrow plank like a tiger waiting for his dinner. His voice, amplified by a crackling old PA rings out over the showgrounds at Katherine, in the Australian Northern Territory. he pauses for a moment and dispatches a hleper to the ride on the left, which is almost drowning him out. "Bloody new rides", he mutters under his breath" got the money to buy a fancy sound system; wish, I could afford that".
