Thanks for the support, I really appreciate it. I don't really get why everyone says I only have one arm. I have two, just one hand. I use my little arm all the time, one of my favorite weapons haha. It doesn't really bother me when people say I only have one arm bc I get what they are saying. I look forward to returning sometime soon and really making a name for myself

give this man his Green, he earned it!

I'm just waiting for his pro fight to get entered in our database. I've already upgraded his account to green as I saw him fight, but his profile isn't linked to his record yet :)

awesome, well deserved.

Cool.

Not that he is actually "one armed" really, but still one hell of an accomplishment.
