Now here's a real fight of the night contender (unlike our last few events, where stuff COULD win FotN, but nothing awesome happened. These two went to bloody war. I don't think Smith's stats accurately reflect the damage he does, especially with kicks. Each out for damage, each taking and recieving damage, pretty evenly. Smith had Browne down to about 2% health (Smith was at about 4% himself at the time), then Browne climbed back into it, a round-break happened, and Browne turned the tables. When this fight ended, both fighters were left in the deep red. Great job, gents.
