Yeah I honestly love HW fights. I, for the life of me, cannot understand the hate HW gets on here sometimes.
I will take you up on this and am quite sure I will get criticized 4 it, but I don't care all that much. Glad 2 have u back.

I know you will change but for clarity I am assuming fights 1-4-14-16-17-21-23 you mean the first fights? But don’t want it to be an assumption. Nice first draft. I am still thinking on mine
