"ITTTSSSSSS TIMMMEEEE!"
Deuce Baffer's voice blasted through the arena and sent the crowd into another wave of noise. Damon rolled his shoulders once, calm and steady. Shenil kept his chin tucked, eyes locked forward.
"For the fans watching around the world," Deuce continued, pacing across the center of the cage, "this fight is scheduled for five rounds in the UNO–UFA Middleweight Championship Super Bout!"
The spotlight snapped onto Shenil first.
"Introducing first… fighting out of the blue corner! A mixed martial artist holding a perfect professional record—five wins, zero losses! All victories by KO or TKO! Representing UNO Championship and fighting out of the Dagestani mountains… Sheniiil 'The Mauler' Ardigoooon!!"
The crowd erupted with a mix of cheers and pressure. Shenil barely blinked.
Deuce turned.
"And his opponent… fighting out of the red corner!"
The crowd suddenly got louder.
