This was actually a really good fight. Both fighters are really coming along nicely. Calderwood is a bit farther along the development ladder, though and took advantage of that half way through the fight. Roxanne did better than I thought she would, though, fighting a nearly maxed fighter. She did damage, despite the lop-sided stats. Well done, chaps.
