  • The Bloodsport was an annual competition in Madripoor. The Bloodsport included a succession of one-on-one fights, each of them ending in the utter defeat of one of the fighters. Use of super-human powers and advanced personal weaponry was allowed, and commonly (but not always) the fight ended in the death of one of the contestants. The winner of the fight would then fight in the following round, until he or she was declared victor. One of the annual competitions was sponsored and organized by the Viper, with Mister X as previous champion. Under the sight of celebrities in the audience, different super-human fighters gave their blood in the field. In the first round: * Headhunter defeated and killed Oddball; * Puma apparently devoured the Gamecock; * Taskmaster defeated, but not killed, the Cat; * Maximillian Zaran defeated, but not killed, his old partner Razorfist; * Anaconda snapped Forearm's neck; * Toad murdered Eel; and * Wolverine defeated Speed Demon. In the second round: * Taskmaster defeated Zaran by throwing a cane at his head while the latter deflected arrows shot by Taskmaster; * Puma defeated Anaconda by slashing through her windpipe (though she survived the injury); * Wolverine defeated Toad by grabbing him by the tongue and slamming him against the cage in which they were; and * Defending winner Mister X (who did not fight in the first round due to "champion privileges") beheaded the Headhunter. In the semifinals: * Wolverine defeated Puma; and * Mister X defeated Taskmaster. The final had Wolverine facing Mister X. Here, Wolverine learned that his opponent was a telepath and, thus, could predict his every move and counter it with uncanny accuracy. However, Wolverine later slipped into his berserker rage and started turning the tables of the battle, since the viciousness of his rage makes him attack unpredictably. Mister X was nearly killed, but his bodyguard Blok saved him in the nick of time.
