This tag team bout will have 4 fighters. Four of them will be at each of the corners of the ring. The first fighter will be selected via a social media poll. Via this poll, the audience will be picking the fighter and the one with the highest votes in the poll will be the first fighter. This way, the audience gets the chance to pick the first fighter. Once the first fighter is picked, a tag will be made at any time to any fighter and once the tag is made, the fighter can pick either of the other two. If by any chance the tag is refused by the fighter, he will be eliminated from the bout. Not just this, TKO, KO, as well as Knockdown, will lead to elimination.

There will be no team here for X series 008, but just the ‘last man standing’ will be announced as a winner. But if in the end there’s more than one fighter standing, it will come down to a point decision. Each of the fighters will receive 8 to 10 points based on their performance. The performance will be decided on the basis of power punches, the volume of punches landed, effective aggression, ring generalship as well as defense. At the end of the 4th round, the points will be tallied and the fighter with the most points will be declared as the winner of X series 008.
