Pronghorn Ranch
World Map
Go towards the barn.
You'll find three bullies there who are threatening Abe.
John will stand up for Abe and request the bandits to leave the ranch.
Their leader won't listen and will try to hit John. John will dodge and a fist-fight will begin. If you want to get the gold medal in this mission, then you must defeat Laramie within the set time limit and you cannot let him hit you once.
Forget about blocking as blocks also count as hits. You must immediately attack, constantly push and hit your opponent. If your hat falls off your head it means that you have been hit.
At some point you will knock your opponent to the ground and start beating him.
After a while, Abigail will appear and separate you.
You and Laramie will argue for a while, but only verbally, after which Laramie and his companions will get on their horses and leave the ranch threatening that this is not the end.
After completing this mission, you will be able to play the missions Fatherhood, For Idiots, Jim Milton Rides, Again?.
