Chapter 393: Eleven consecutive wins
When Klitschko Jr. showed up in the training room, he found his assistant coach and sparring partner huddled around watching a cell phone video. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"What interesting things are you looking at?" Little Klitschko stepped forward.
"We're looking at Zhang Guan, this is the video of the match that just came up, it is said to be the match that ended not long ago, Zhang Guan against Abdusalamov." An assistant coach spoke.
"Zhang Guan won again?" Klitschko Jr. immediately asked.
"Yes, it's been nine wins in a row, and Abdusalamov really can't stop Zhang Guan's progress. However, Zhang Guan's two games don't seem to be as amazing as the previous ones, in the first seven games, even against strong opponents like Raman and Thompson, Zhang Guan only used one round, and the last two, Zhang Guan against Dimichenko and Abdusalamov, it took two rounds to solve the battle! The assistant coach spoke.
"Finally someone can make it to the second round, but is there a difference between one round and two rounds?" Klitschko Jr. showed a mocking expression, and he continued: "When I heard that Zhang Guan defeated Raman in one round, Thompson in one round, and Chambers in one round, I thought that these guys were acting with Zhang Guan, but now it seems that he is really strong!" ”
As he spoke, little Klitschko raised his head and asked, "Who do you think is stronger, me or Zhang Guan?" ”
"Why would you suddenly ask such a question, you're a super boxing champion! How can Zhang Guan compare to you. The assistant coach said right away.
Klitschko Jr. smiled slightly, he did not respond positively, but asked: "Who is Zhang Guan's next opponent?" ”、
"Del Boy, Drake Chesola. This is a fighter you are very optimistic about! The assistant coach said right away.
"It's him! Hopefully he can play some well and don't let me down! Klitschko Jr. spoke.
……
"Drake Chesola, Englishman, my compatriot, nicknamed Del Boy! With a height of 187 cm and an arm span of 188 cm, he is currently the British heavyweight champion and the Commonwealth heavyweight champion. He's characterized by his fierce punches, he's very powerful, Danny Williams only lasted two rounds under him, I coached him for a while, he's really strong, and in terms of pure strength, Chesola's probably not lost to Tyson at his peak. Lewis said.
Chesola is also a heavy hitter, but it's actually better to describe him as a strong man because he has a lot of power. However, in boxing, it is not possible to punch hard with great strength, the method of punching, the choice of force, and the speed of the fist will affect the strength of the fist. Although Cesola has the strength not to lose to the peak Tyson, he definitely can't hit the kind of heavy punch that the peak Tyson.
"Who is stronger, him or David Haye?" Zhang Guan asked.
"It should be half a catty and eight taels!" Lewis then added: "But Klitschko Jr. is very optimistic about him. It is said that Klitschko Jr. is ready to choose Cesola to defend his title, which shows that he still recognizes Chesola's strength. ”
Once a boxer has won the title, he has to defend his belt by defending his title, or the boxing organization will strip the champion of his belt. And in the title defense, the king has the initiative to pick his opponent. Each boxing organization has its own world ranking, and usually, the top fighters are more likely to challenge for the title, but that doesn't mean that the second-ranked fighter gets the right to challenge sooner than the third- and fourth-ranked fighters.
Different boxing organizations also have certain differences in their rules for this, for example, the WBO's constitution stipulates that boxing champions can choose any of the top 10 fighters to defend their titles within a specified time, and do not necessarily have to choose a "legal challenger".
And some boxing organizations will have a mandatory requirement to accept the challenge, and if you don't accept the challenge of the legal challenger, you will lose the belt. For example, in 1996, Tyson successfully defended the two boxing championship belts of WBC and WBA, and the legal challenger at that time was Lewis, Tyson rejected Lewis's challenge and chose Holyfield, who had just undergone surgery, but according to the rules of WBC, Tyson lost the WBC belt, but kept the WBA belt, and because of Tyson's choice, it opened the prelude to his grudge with Holyfield.
When a top boxing champion like Klitschko Jr. chooses an opponent, he mainly weighs two points, one is that he can successfully defend his title, and the other is the consideration of commercial interests. If you choose an opponent who is too weak, the game will not look good, the audience will naturally be much less, the attention will be much lower, the appearance fee, bonus, share, etc. of the fighter will be much less, and the sponsor will also refuse to spend money.
Therefore, Cesola can be valued by Klitschko Jr. and selected as the opponent to defend the title, which shows that he is a very powerful boxer.
……
"I don't think this Chesola lives up to its name!" Zhang Guan continued: "I really don't understand why Klitschko Jr. values him. It's so bulky and slow, and I think Abdusalamov is much better than him. ”
There was no suspense in the evening game, and Zhang Guan only used a set of combination punches to knock down Cesola, so Zhang Guan didn't feel how strong Chesola's strength was.
Cesola is known for his strength, but his speed and agility are greatly compromised, and in Zhang Guan's opinion, Chesola is a fat man with slow movements. Especially after the effect of the "heavy blow" skill has occurred, this inflexible fighter has completely become a target for human flesh. So in terms of technical characteristics, Zhang Guan is more restrained from fighters like Cesola.
"Tomorrow is the last day, and you have two opponents left." Bulls' Sykes and 'Nightmare' Pete. Lewis continued: "Sykes isn't the type of guy who is good at knocking out opponents, but he has a lot of experience. However, Pete's strength is very strong, and he is very strong. ”
"I know that the Nigerian 'nightmare', Samur Pitt, was also hailed as Tyson's successor." Zhang Guan said.
"Pete made a deep impression on me, I remember it was in 2005, when Pete was only 25 years old, he faced Klitschko Jr., when he knocked Klitschko Jr. three times, but failed to make a knockout, and in the end, Klitschko Jr. won a difficult victory over Pete by virtue of the point advantage." Lewis continued: "Pitt is the first person who can knock out Klitschko Jr. three times in one fight! I think this must be a very unforgettable memory for little Klitschko! ”
……
"Zhang Guan defeated 'Bull' Sykes, and he has won 11 in a row! Six days, 11 consecutive wins, all KOs, no one can survive two rounds, which is also too exaggerated! The assistant coach said, pointing to the screen of his phone.
"Eleven wins in a row, so who is his last opponent?" Klitschko Jr. asked.
"It's Pete, 'Nightmare' Pete!"
Hearing the name, little Klitschko involuntarily touched his chin, and that unpleasant memory also appeared in his mind. (To be continued.) )
