Izuku and Eraserhead stared each other down. Izuku crouched down sitting on his right foot while his left foot was extended, his hands slightly extended on the centreline, with his elbows placed at an angle, his body relaxed and his fingers pointing towards Eraserhead.

"Wing Chun. Colour me impressed." Eraserhead said as he stood with his right foot lifted up, elbows facing outward and his back arched backwards.

"Muay Thai, interesting choice." Izuku mutters.

The two stood there waiting for the other to make a move.

"Why are they not moving?" The man with the scar asks the older man.

"They're sizing each other up, you usually don't get to see these kinds of battles often these days so watch closely." The old man says as he blows a whistle.

Eraserhead charges at Izuku with a low kick that Izuku blocks with his hand, grabbing the older man's leg and pulling it away from his body. Eraserhead counters by using his other leg to jump up and deliver a side kick aimed at Izuku's chest for the boy to block it with his forearm. Izuku lets go of Eraserhead's other leg as he delivers a quick chop aimed at Eraserhead's knee only to stop centimetres before it.

"One point for me. Your knee was too just too wide open there." Izuku says as Eraserhead jumps away making some distance between himself and Izuku.

"1-0." The old pro announces as the two fighters get ready once more, this time Eraserhead opted to choose a much more recognisable boxing stance with his hands close to his head and knees slightly bent as he bent over ever so slightly.

"Boxing. Quite a classic, but I'll stick to Wing Chun." Izuku says as he stands up his fingers facing Eraserhead, and his waist turned to the right ever so slightly.

Eraserhead throws a massive left at Izuku, which the boy blocks using his right forearm, giving additional support with his left hand and taking a few steps back to reduce the impact. Eraserhead starts to hit Izuku with multiple, continuous punches as the boy successfully parried each one before kicking Eraserhead in the gut, sending him back a few steps.

"2-0"

Taking the lead this time around, Izuku doesn't wait for Eraserhead to recover as he ducks down and shifts to the left, dodging a left uppercut as he places his whole palm on Eraserhead's chin and applies little force sending the man to the floor where he pins the man.

"3-0 and I believe that was Krav Maga." The old man continues his commentary.

Izuku nods as he lets Eraserhead get up and performs a backflip to make some distance between the two of them.

"Are you okay sir? I hope that wasn't too much." Izuku says, sincerely.

"I've had much worse." Eraserhead says massaging his jaw when the door could be heard opening.

"We heard Shouta was getting his ass kicked by an applicant, we had to come and watch." A woman says as she walks to the judge's table.
