PICKLED PRETTY vs MOONSHINE SOONMINE

This fight went better than I expected. PICKLED PRETTY had been nursing 2 pop zones for at least 50 fights and I decided to give her a chance before dying in the normal arena.

MS has always been good at pulling out close fights. This is the second defense in a row where he probably had 1 hit point at the end.
