Damn. Despite what the stats show, this was actually shaping up to be a good fight. Morale and momentul shifts were frequent, and some damage was exchanged both ways. I don't feel as though the health bars (and their fluctuation) ever accurately reflect the stats - Chandler did a lot of damage for one landed damned punch. I wonder if the others land, but not clean? You know, like when you block a head kick with your arms and it still hurts your arms a little bit? Cause, yeah, the damage was small but Brown was definitely damaged more than once.
