"So the leopard went around telling everybody that he couldn't help winning because the tiger was a big palooka and the tiger went around telling everybody that he couldn't lose because the leopard was a big palooka. The night of the fight came and the tiger and the leopard were very hungry because they hadn't gone out and done any hunting at all; they wanted to get the fight over as soon as possible and eat some of the freshly killed wild boars which all the animals would bring to the fight.
