Chapter 424 - 390: Formidable Opponents
In the third round, it was still 2VS2.
This time, the captain of the Brazil Team, Silvar, took the stage himself. His popularity in UFC was among the top and equally high in the combat sports realm. His appearance immediately caused a sensation in the entire venue.
This round featured middleweight and heavyweight partners. Brazil Team’s middleweight was Silvar, who possessed an absolute advantage, but their heavyweight contestant was far less skilled, making it difficult to win against the British Team. Therefore, with the strategy of pairing their strongest, Silvar, with a weaker heavyweight contestant, they aimed to claim these two points.
As soon as the match began, the Brazil Team took the initiative to charge, but it wasn’t heavyweight against heavyweight or middleweight against middleweight. Instead, Silvar took on the British Team’s heavyweight contestant, while his own heavyweight partner faced the British middleweight.
This also showed Brazil Team’s confidence in Silvar; a middleweight contestant stepping up a division to fight a heavyweight, and they weren’t worried about Silvar losing but believed that he could dominate his opponent!
Soon after the match started, the situation on the field became clear: Silvar, with his speed in movement and strikes, far surpassing his opponent, played with his adversary with ease while ensuring they couldn’t get away. Whenever there was an attempt to escape, he would immediately launch a ferocious attack to push the opponent back. If the opponent counter-attacked, he would start dodging effortlessly.
On the other side, the Brazil Team’s heavyweight contestant was facing the British middleweight and had an equally easy time. His weight advantage crushed an entire division; his resistance to hits and power were much stronger, and he quickly got the British contestant pinned to the ground.
By the third minute, the British Team’s middleweight contestant was knocked out, turning the fight into a two-on-one.
However, Silvar shouted loudly on the field, astonishingly telling his teammate not to intervene as he wanted to challenge the opponent one-on-one!
The scene immediately sent the entire audience into a frenzy. Middleweight versus heavyweight had only been seen from Wu Li and Li San from the Hua Country Team. Now Silvar was ready to replay the scenario of lighter versus heavier.
On the field, Silvar began his show, fighting aggressively despite his lesser strength.
