OPINION

MAY, Judge.

Earnest Townsend was convicted of unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon ("SVF"), a Class B felony1 and found to be an habitual offender.2 He asserts the trial court improperly used his 1989 conviction of battery as a Class C felony to support both the SVF conviction and the habitual offender finding.

We affirm.
