Do these 2 fight all the time? I feel like these 2 fight each other all the time. Very very good fight though. Even, and both doin work, and getting stuff done. Because another fight had both fighters closer to a finish, this won’t quite be a FotN, but on another card, it very well could have been. Good work, ladies.
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
