Chapter 303 - 195 UFC Debut_2
Li Ang also nodded, realizing why he felt his odds of winning were highest when facing a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu specialist—it turned out he was part of the hidden machinations.
"The second one is called Jose de Rosette. His skills are comprehensive, but none stand out particularly, and he has some popularity, but it’s not too high. Overall, you should have about a 60% chance of winning, so he’s a fairly moderate choice..."
"This third candidate, personally selected by the president for you, is called Manolo Dreke. Although he too has only been signed for less than two years and has a fighting style similar to yours with weaker ground techniques, his strength is absolutely the strongest among the newcomers of these two years. In terms of popularity, he’s significantly higher than the first two combined. Your chances of winning against him should not exceed 40%..."
The assistant paused briefly, then continued:
"Actually, I think he’s not quite suitable as your debut opponent. Although debuts chase popularity, securing a winning start is also very crucial. Choosing him might instead turn your debut into his show."
"Ultimately, it’s still up to your own choice."
"I choose Manolo Dreke."
Without much hesitation, Li Ang directly chose Manolo Dreke, the most popular and also the strongest contender.
His strength had been improving almost daily, and what he had previously shown was not his full effort.
So, no matter the opponent, he was confident of victory; under these circumstances, of course, he would choose the most popular contender.
"See, what did I tell you; I knew he would definitely choose Manolo Dreke; now this dinner is on you," White Danna suddenly burst into laughter, speaking smugly to his assistant.
The assistant was somewhat surprised; after all, the winning odds he just mentioned were not made up but were indeed based on Li Ang’s previous performances.
