Tate's whole body froze when he saw the round of sixteen had been updated on the website.
His eyes quickly moved to his side of the table and his heart missed a beat.
His opponent was Samuel Jackson.
Samuel Jackson had won the state tournament before, he won it six years ago and was scouted by an agency that works in the country leagues, however he had a career ending injury, which eventually ended his career.
It turned out that the injury wasn't as bad as it seemed because Samuel recovered in less than a year, however, he had to start from scratch again.
This was all the information Tate gathered the day he came to register in the headquarters. He hasn't heard of Samuel Jackson before nor have he seen him fight before. With all the gossip he heard that day, Samuel was an excellent fighter and he had the experience to it.
