This is true. I amended my comments to reflect that.

Both fighters have tremendous prowess and dedication. :)

Its good to see Gaylen still fighting. I havent seen him in years. he was one of the first knight i played with in the shire of Seagirt back in ther 90's.  I have a love of fighting and hes one of the reasons.

Two very talented fighters who are dedicated to their art form.

Interesting points: I understand that the Duke was fighting with a broken hand that had occurred a week or two before the tournament. The Viscount took a sword tip to the inner elbow of his sword arm in his first fight that chipped the bone. This had to be one painful bout for both of them. Two injured but valiant fighters!
