...huh. Interesting. The fight was interesting, in that Josh dominated early, Dan dominated late. Dan was closer to the finish, as the damage-caused indicates. Josh became more tired then Dan. I donno, i don't have much more to add here.
...still think the simulator has it in for my fighters though lol 
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
