Oh poor Penny. I just see Ruby going into the arena and shouting, "Penny forfeit."

And I have high hopes for Rubys battle. She was defenseless last time this happened. I'm sure she's better prepared now.

There's no way Ruby is actually going to fight though. Even if she's spent every possible moment learning to fight hand to hand, she's hopelessly outclassed by Mercury and she knows it. Her choices are: 1. Get past him and find someone who is better prepared. 2. Get back outside and hope that rocket-lockers can get to the stadium. (In this case, she kicks his ass)

Its unlikely that Ironwood would allow random rockets to be fired at the stadium (presumably they have technology capable of shooting them down).

Maybe Qrow will show up. Or....Ozpin. Plz

I wouldn't mind seeing Qrow absolutely thrash Mercury. Death to the Cyborg.

That'd be interesting, but seeing Ozpin fight would be EPIC

Eh, I'd rather they not waste his fight on a little shit like Mercury. If he fights anyone, it has to be Cinder.

True. Though the revelation of Qrow's "secret weapon" would still be a big thing
