DUKES UP

EDIT: I caught a note that pointed out this pose isn’t good form for fighting. You are correct, sir/madam/other! You wouldn’t want to be this square to your opponent, unless perhaps you were trying to draw he/she/other in to engage. This started as a study from a photo of a female fighter in a pre-fight staredown pose, where the only criteria is looking like a badass.

This is so good I want to cry.
