Chapter 997: The battle is imminent
Jon Jones entered the octagon cage with his agent and coaching staff, stood in the corner of the blue side players, staring at Ye Tian opposite, his eyes were full of hatred and extremely resentful!
The two Hellangels bosses, James and Allen, also came down to the sidelines with a few men and sat in the first row behind Jon Jones, very close to the Octagon.
The two old guys didn't sit down immediately, but walked to the side of the octagon cage and whispered a few words to Jon Jones, and then glanced at Ye Tian resentfully, and then went back to sit down.
What did they tell Jon Jones? Ye Tian didn't care at all! It was nothing more than letting Jon Jones go all out, and it was best to kill himself in the Octagon Cage!
Under the pressure of absolute strength, all ghost tricks are nonsense, there is no use for fart, how can there be any need to pay attention!
With both fighters in the field, Michael Buffalo began to introduce the format.
This is a mat game with a five-round format, with each round lasting five minutes!
Michael then began to introduce the referee who officiated the game, as well as the three referees on the sidelines.
With his passionate introduction, the referee in the cage walked to the center of the field and waved to the live and live audience, and the three referees on the sidelines also got up to greet him!
After the introduction, Michael Baver handed the scene to the inside referee for the time being.
The referee in the cage immediately walked over to the corner where Ye Tian was with several UFC official staff and began to perform the last pre-fight inspection.
It's a must-do before every fight begins.
Soon, the referee came to Ye Tian and began to inspect.
The first is to smell and see if the gloves are smeared with illegal drugs, etc., to avoid cheating by fighters!
The second is touching, where the referee wears gloves to touch the fighter from head to toe, checking not only the physical condition of the fighter, but also whether he has hard objects.
Next is the application, and under the supervision of the referee, the official UFC staff will apply a thick layer of petroleum jelly to the fighter's brow bones, ears, and under the eyes to protect these areas.
The main function of Vaseline is to lubricate the skin, the above parts are very easy to be injured, Vaseline can reduce friction, reduce the probability of bleeding, and can also play a role in relieving pain and accelerating wound healing to reduce infection.
Then it's a matter of looking at whether the fighters' gloves are tightened, whether the fingernails are trimmed and smooth, whether the toenails are trimmed, whether they are wearing good mouth guards, and so on.
The final step is to check the gloves.
According to the regulations, before the match, the referee must check whether the gloves worn by the fighters comply with the rules, and check the hardness of the gloves to see if the gloves are damaged.
While the referee and the UFC staff checked themselves, Ye Tian also secretly turned on the perspective and thoroughly checked the other party.
The reason why he did this was naturally to prevent someone from tampering.
In particular, Vaseline, which is applied to the face, is the key target of see-through.
Everywhere the line of sight passed, everything was presented very clearly, the referee and UFC staff were fine, and Vaseline was genuine, not anything greasy!
In just two or three minutes, the pre-fight inspection on Ye Tian's side was completed, and the referee walked to the opposite corner with several UFC staff members to check on Jon Jones.
When the guys left, Matisse immediately lowered his voice and said:
"Steven, when fighting Jon Jones, you have to watch the distance, that bastard has a much longer arm span than you, and he's very good at using jabs to control distance, so you have to guard against it!
What's more, you have to be vigilant not to get the bastard poked in the eye, it's a damaging move he's used to, and a lot of famous martial artists have suffered from it.
One more thing, to prevent being kicked in the knee and shin by that guy, these are also two very shady tricks that Jon Jones bastard often uses, ruining a lot of martial arts masters!"
"Don't worry, Matisse, that bastard didn't have a chance to use these shady tricks, and before he could use them, this octagon duel should be over!"
Ye Tian chuckled and whispered, extremely confident.
As he spoke, Jon Jones's pre-match inspection was completed and no problems were found.
Subsequently, UFC officials withdrew from the octagon, leaving only one security guard inside the ring.
In addition, there are only the referee and the host in the octagon, Ye Tian and Jon Jones, as well as their respective teams and agents.
Michael Barver's voice rang out again, still full of passion.
"The pre-match checks are complete, the battle is about to begin, please leave the octagon cage and provide guidance from the sidelines!"
As soon as the words fell, Matisse and the others immediately walked out of the octagon cage and stood outside the cage, behind the corner where Ye Tian was, to provide him with off-court guidance.
The situation was the same on the other side, with Jon Jones' coaching staff and agent also leaving the Octagon to start coaching off the court.
The number of people inside the Octagon has plummeted, and the battle is about to begin.
With the change of the situation in the octagonal cage, the atmosphere of the scene has become more and more hot, and it has gradually become white-hot, and the same is true for the live broadcast end, which is full of heated discussions.
"It's finally going to start! I wonder if Steven's bastard can last a few minutes or a few rounds? I hope he will hold on a little longer and give everyone a good fighting match, don't be killed in seconds!"
"Who's to say Steven is going to lose? I don't think soever! You know, this guy is a famous miracle worker, and has created countless jaw-dropping miracles!
Maybe it's another night for him, another night of miracles, anything is possible, and I wouldn't be too shocked if that happens.
Steven never fights uncertain battles, and since he dares to enter the Octagon and face a top martial artist like Jon Jones, he must have a lot of confidence, otherwise how can he die if he dares to step into the Octagon?
In the midst of the discussion, Michael Barver's passionate, high-pitched and loud voice came again, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's first mixed martial arts bout, and the most talked-about, much-anticipated fight of the night, is about to begin.
The two sides are blue square fighter Jon Jones "The Bones" of Rochester, New York, and the current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion.
Standing across from him is a super-rich man from Manhattan, New York, Steven, who is a newcomer to the martial arts arena and a very tough guy.
Let's enjoy this rare fight and enjoy an intense, blood-pumping night of fighting, and let's get ready to get into the fight——!"
Michael Barver once again shouted out the classic host quote, and with a high-pitched and loud long voice, he directly detonated the entire Hollywood theater and all the live broadcasts.
"Bang Bang Bang"
The applause rang out loudly and was extremely warm.
These applause quickly came together, like a storm, and instantly swept the entire Hollywood theater, as well as all the live broadcasts.
Amid deafening applause, Michael Barvo walked briskly out of the octagon, followed by the security guard, who also left the octagon.
There are only three people left in the octagonal cage, the referee in the cage, Ye Tian, and Jon Jones opposite.
The next moment, a beautiful bikini with a graceful figure and curvaceous curves walked into the octagon cage with the first round sign held high and began to circle the cage!
The smell of gunpowder in the air has become stronger, and the battle is on the verge of breaking out.
The applause quickly fell, and the bikini beauties finished their circle and left the octagon, which was immediately closed by the sideline staff.
All the viewers at the scene and on the live broadcast side became nervous, and their eyes widened one by one, staring intently at the situation inside the octagonal cage.
The referee in the cage waved and called Ye Tian and Jon Jones to the center of the court.
As soon as they approached, the referee in the cage immediately picked up the microphone and began to talk about the rules and spirit of the game.
He then warned both sides not to hit the forbidden parts, such as the crotch, Adam's apple, and the back of the head, and repeatedly stressed that they must obey the referee during the game.
For these, Ye Tian and Jon both nodded in understanding and absolutely obeyed the referee.
As for whether they really understand and are willing to follow these rules, only God knows!
After completing the routine, the referee instructed the two to return to their respective areas.
"Bastard, wait to die, I'll tear you damn bastard to shreds!"
Jon Jones whispered as he gritted his back molars, his expression rather hideous.
"Who will die in this octagonal cage? The answer will soon be revealed, and I am very sure that that person is definitely not me! It can only be you brainless idiot! Next year today will be your death day!"
Ye Tian said with a sneer, his eyes full of murderous aura.
With that, he retreated to his area.
