Interesting fight. Would have liked to see this with and without the upgrades to see how much of an impact they made. But anyways, Sugiyama had some good moments, and was doing especially well when she could get the fight to the ground. Fellice took the fight standing and finished the fight standing and that was this and no one wants to see that new Annie movie that’s coming out soon.
