The draft continued without delay. Each coach took their time, but neither dragged it out.
There were no surprises, just focused decisions. Both knew exactly what they wanted from their teams.
Soon, the selection came to an end.
Each team had four lightweights and four middleweights.
Damon's middleweight picks:
José Alvarez (Brazil)
Elias Murad (Lebanon)
Theo Brunner (Germany)
Kaito Mori (Japan)
José was the power striker with clean form. Elias had strong grappling and calm, tight pressure.
Theo brought raw strength and athleticism but still needed polish. Kaito was a counter-puncher, sharp, patient, and efficient.
Ivan's middleweight picks:
Dorian Vega (Mexico)
Arman Petrov (Russia)
Chase Dunham (USA)
Thami Zulu (South Africa)
Dorian was aggressive and loud, all forward motion. Arman had a sambo base and strong top control. Chase was a well-rounded grinder.
Damon looked over at Ivan's team as they stood together.
