For the first time in the whole tournament, the hooded guy assumed a fighting stance, and before Billy could react, he disappeared. And in the next moment, he got punched three times in the face and rolled on the ring. That hurt like hell, but Billy got up fast enough and before he could fall from it.
Billy used Palm Cannon to attack, and the hooded guy just sidestepped and dodged those attacks as if Billy was throwing pebbles at him. Billy didn't hesitate and then opened his status and put all the free ones that he had in strength. He wouldn't become as fast as that guy even if he used all of those in speed. Increasing his endurance wouldn't help, so Billy might as well bet the whole match on a single strike, and the next one, he will make sure that the hooded guy won't shake it off.
