Looking at his next opponent Eric couldn't help but get a bit surprised and startled as he didn't expect something like that to happen.
And he wasn't the only one who was shocked like that, as a lot of people were shocked and dissatisfied with the matchup.
After all, Eric's next opponent wasn't stronger than the previous one had fought, at least from the information he had handed to the organizers he wasn't.
In fact, according to that information, he was even weaker than Eric was. But if that were the truth then he wouldn't have reached this round.
For that reason, Eric couldn't help but look at the guy with doubts and worry, as he tried to find whatever useful information that he could.
In these cases, the crowd was the best source of information and the moment that he learned of his opponent he opened his ears wide for whatever rumor he could hear.
