Viral again

[3rd POV]

"Hahaha, what's wrong? Baby can't walk?" I taunted my opponent who constantly retreated from me.

We had been exchanging strikes throughout the first round but none of his shots landed on me and I continuously destroyed his legs.

By the end of the round, he was walking funny. He couldn't even put his weight on his front leg anymore and he constantly retreated from me.

But I could not let down my guard either because he was always ready to throw a power punch at me. His reach was long but he was so much slower so he could not utilize his long reach.

*whack!!*

"Argh!!" He stumbled and struggled to even get himself up with only one foot. It was a good time to finish him off but I didn't.

I was enjoying this way too much. The opponents here were so much stronger and more experienced than the opponents I faced back in Japan.

Although it may not look like it, they were. The difference was apparent because the fighters back home usually fell after one kick.

Also, I might be a bit of a sadist when it comes to fighting. Just a bit.

*Wham!!*

My kick brushed against his shin, and only my toes made contact but with his already hurting leg, it felt as painful as an actual successful kick.

I put my hands up, ready to slap away any incoming jab or kick he might throw at me as I moved towards him slowly, constantly putting pressure.

"Motherfucker!" He gave me the middle finger. He was trying to taunt me and get me to make a mistake since he couldn't find an opening.

Too bad being called a motherfucker was not an insult to me.

I was literally a motherfucker.

I delivered another successful kick on his leg which was swelling up by now. He used that chance to step in and throw a jab at me.

He gritted his teeth as he bared through the pain. I pulled back my front foot but I did not step back, instead, I changed my stance into a southpaw and delivered another kick on his leg again with my new front foot.

His momentum got cut off as he tumbled to the side.

"Haha, pretty neat trick. Thank you for showing me." I said with a smile and finally threw a combination bunches.

Jab, Jab, Straight, and Uppercut.

All landed successfully and he fell to the canvas. I quickly got on top of him and began beating him down with a hammer fists.

He could do nothing but wriggle around like a worm as I smashed my opponent. After a few seconds of continuous punishment, the referee pulled me away and I was declared the winner by KO.

The match lasted for 4 minutes and 12 seconds. Throughout the whole match - except for the start - I chased my opponent and continuously put pressure on him until he eventually broke.

"Winner by KO!! Ladies and Gentleman I present to you, Yuito Fujita the prince charming!!" The referee raised my hand and I waved around as the crowd chanted my name.

"Fu-ji-ta!!"

I gave my respect to my opponent and went for a hug. He was also being a Chad about his loss and told me I fought well and he would come back to fight me again after he got stronger.

After that, under the roaring crowd, I left the arena.

The fight for today was done and I did not waste time. Quickly packing my things, I took a bath and then leave the stadium.

I went back to my hotel instead of going back to hobin's place and I ordered room service for a meal.

I have done enough today and I needed to recharge.

So I lay on my bed switched on my laptop and did a video call to my mother. i was pleasantly surprised to see all the girls in my house and it warmed my heart to know that they were watching my fight and rooting for me.

The call lasted for a long time but I did not care.

I was at peace.

[3rd POV]

While Yuito was video calling his girlfriends and was at peace, the world was not.

Yuito's perfect body which had gone viral showed no viral of stopping. Not only that but his fights in the Absolute Championship had also gone viral but not as viral as his appearance.

In the age of the internet, Yuti became a hot topic amongst the world. Not only has his ripped body and a collection of his photos gone viral in Tiktok, but it has become a trend in other social media like Instagram as well.

Many famous influencers quickly published their reaction video to his aesthetic physique, they expressed their amazement - which was of course a little exaggerated for the viewers - and wanted to learn more about Yuito.

Other fitness influencers also made videos of their analysis of Yuito's physique, claiming it to be the best physique in the fighting industry. They also gave ratings and even theorized on how he achieved his perfect body, some say it is steroids, some say he has excellent genetics while a few others claim fighting gave him his physique.

It was an ongoing debate that only increased his popularity.

His match was also made into shorts and the moment in his first match where he said, "Fuck around and find out." after knocking out his opponent with a flying knee had quickly become a meme as well.

On Instagram, thirst trap girls use his photos to make a trending video with "Oh I think that I found myself a cheerleader" as the music. YOu can already guess what type of video it was.

His fans in Japan were not ideal either and shared his videos to make their prodigy into an absolute star.

That was how Yuito impacted the world in his first debut in the MMA world and the international media in public.

When he fought in Japan, the media that covered him was limited to Japan, and their media was written in Japanese and focused on a Japanese audience, so he never had much international exposure.

He was famous but only in the nation.

But the Absolute Championship was an international MMA tournament, and that is the reason for his sudden popularity.

******

In one of the front seats in the stadium where the Absolute Championship took place, you can find a short but muscular bald man.

He was holding his bald head and his eyes were sparkling with excitement. There was a smile on his face which was akin to a child watching a superhero movie.

And maybe he did, as he had just finished watching Yuito's second match.

Suddenly, his phone started ringing and he picked it up instantly after he saw who it was.

"Hello, Dana. Can you hear me?" He spoke to the phone and cupped it as he did not want the crowds cheering to disturb his call.

(Yes, yes. Joe!! Are you seeing it?!)

Joe Rogan laughed loudly after he heard that, "I am here, watching it live. The kid's legit."

(No shit. I told you my hunch is always right. Hahaha)

"He was awesome."

(He is awesome.)

"Yeah, he is quite impressive. I swear these kids are monsters Dana. There are different kinds of beasts that are spawning here in Asia." Joe said.

"The kid you signed not long ago, the one Logan Gracie took as a student, remember? I think his name was Munseoung. The kid was also an absolute monster, I can already see him as a world champion one day."

(What are you talking about Joe?)

"Oh, sorry. I thought we were talking about their fighting skills."

(No Joe, I was talking about the hype.)

Joe Rogan stayed quiet and his mouth became round in realization, 'Oh'

(The kid's magic Joe. The tournament sold more tickets after the match started than before the start of the tournament.)

"And that's good?" Joe asked, rubbing his bald head. He was not much interested in the business aspect and was more amazed at a fighter's skill than anything else.

(Of course!! That means Yuito brings in viewers!! After his first match went viral, the remaining tickets sold out like candies. Do you know what that means?)

"That means?" Joe asked in confusion.

(Money!! Joe!! The kid brings in money!! He is a walking goldmine.)

"Okay."

(Argh, why do I even bother!? Anyway, make sure to sign with that kid and offer him good pay, at least Tier 2. I don't want to lose this kid.)

Joe shrugged, "Sure, you're the boss."

(I will send some agents as well, Joe. Do not fuck this up for the love of god please.)

"I won't." Joe said, almost offended that his friend/boss has such little trust on him

(And don't bring up bears.)

"Of course."

(...or gorillas.)

"You got it."

(And pit bulls.)

"*Tut*" Joe ended the call in annoyance.
