When we stood in front of each other, he offered to fight. He was already standing without leggings, so I took off. I could not refuse. What should I be, a coward? Honestly, I didn’t feel a blow from him. I myself not yet so experienced in fights, hit him once, missed, lost his balance a little, but quickly got up. Of course, I’m to blame for my removal, but I apologized to the guys. They praised me for the fight, cheered me up. I would have agreed to fight with Emelin If he had offered, he would have left.
