Superman admitted, mentally, that Hyperion was a tough opponent, as he got up from the count of 4, pounding his gloves, coming out swinging against the man of steel. Superman dodged and blocked his valley of blows, eventually, punching back with a one-two punch, starting a punching trade, which Superman ended with a punch to the stomach, that ended with him being tossed to the ropes.

It was a strained fight, and even the audience felt the whiplash of the fight, with their bodies having pains from shallowing the shockwaves of their gloved blows.

Hyperion glared at his opponent, sending him a glare that looked like pure malice. Superman, tried his best to shake it off, not really looking back at his opponent.

The next round started, and Hyperion started with a 1-2 combo, which Superman avoided, and knocked him down with a belly and uppercut punch, in that order, sending Hyperion down to the ground, him beating the count at 7. The Supermen then traded punches, Hyperion socking him in the face, Superman guarding. As much as he hated to admit it, Superman had a equal in the god of the sun, and he looked for a time to fight back. He countered with a punch to the face, Hyperion growling, and trying to throw some punches back, but Superman blocked his swings and essentially started to rock on Hyperion's face, throwing a series of punches to the face, that Hyperion countered, but he took a lot of headshots.
