The anticipation was high as another Quarterfinal showdown loomed just days away. Fans barely had time to process PDD's brutal knockout before the next major fight took center stage, Cuba vs. Japan.
Noal Rameiro vs. Tushin Okado.
Noal Rameiro, the Cuban powerhouse, was a freak of nature. His explosive athleticism, Olympic wrestling pedigree, and granite chin made him one of the most feared fighters in the division.
He was built like a statue, a walking muscle tank that defied the laws of age and physics. At his best, he could explode out of nowhere, sending opponents into another dimension with his sudden bursts of violence.
Tushin Okado, Japan's representative, was a calculated assassin.
If Noal was a nuclear warhead, Tushin was a katana, sharp, patient, and devastating when the moment was right. He had a background in judo, paired with elite-level kickboxing, making him a well-rounded killer inside the cage.
