These chicks hit HARD. A very good fight, with lots of damage being flung in every direction. In the end, Sarah’s decision to stand with Kaufman might have been a weak one.

[xx - Former Phoenix Fight Club]

Not really that weak of a decision if you look at the GnP stats. She probably should've tried to stand and bang more with Kaufman as it would appear that would've been the key to victory. Good fight though, as expected.

[The Sandmen]

I did look at the GnP stats. It all came from a reversal, so she should have kept the ground control I guess. Cause standing...she got levelled. GnP she got levelled to... I guess on the plus side though, Ferocity doesn;t have to worry about FiD for Kaufman anymore, amiright?

[xx - Former Phoenix Fight Club]

Well, like I've said, despite the Monster being capped once, I'm still not quite finished with her upgrades yet. There's definitely a few holes, particularly with her defense that is concerning and need to be addressed. I am happy that Kaufman will be of the FiD list though... just wish it wasn't at D'Alelio's expense. lol

[The Sandmen]

Yeah.
