Chapter 498: The Beginning of a Scandal

The boxing match at the Olympics was scheduled after 9pm London time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis project is not suitable for minors, but the British people are very fond of boxing matches, so boxing takes up the prime time after 9 pm.

The boxing competition takes place at the Ixel Exhibition Hall at the Royal Weberia Docks in east London, which is also one of the UK's most famous convention centres, and will be used as a venue during the Olympic Games.

In addition to boxing, Excel will also host fencing, judo, table tennis, taekwondo, weightlifting and wrestling, so it may be the most frequented venue for many Chinese spectators.

Zhang's first opponent is Perea Castillo, an Ecuadorian player.

At this time, the Ecuadorian looked at Zhang Guan with a bitter expression.

"Bullying, too much bullying! It's not fair! Zhang Guan is a professional-level boxer, how can he come to the Olympics! And I was met by the first one! Castillo even had an urge to abstain.

There is a huge gap between amateur boxing and professional boxing, professional boxing has thrown amateur boxing several streets in terms of confrontation intensity, with the level of professional boxers, playing amateur boxing is the same as playing, and at the level of amateur boxing, playing professional boxing may not last three rounds.

The training intensity of professional boxers is much stronger than that of amateur boxing, and the average amateur boxer, if he trains according to the training intensity of professional boxing, it is possible to vomit at the end of the day.

According to the rules of the Olympic Games, professional boxers are not allowed to compete in the Olympic Games. However, at the London Olympics, there was a special situation, that is, Zhang Guan.

Zhang Guan is not a professional boxer, he is not registered in any professional boxing league, so he can participate in the Olympics. But in terms of strength, even the world's top professional boxing champion is not Zhang Guan's opponent.

Not to mention the amazing week of defeating 12 strong opponents, the New Year's fight on the first day of 2012, Zhang Guan's knockout of Klitschko Jr. was enough to establish Zhang Guan's status in the boxing world.

Klitschko Jr. has been the ruler of heavyweight boxing for nearly a decade, and for these amateur fighters, Klitschko Jr. is a god-like existence, but Zhang Guan is the one who knocked out the "god". The appearance of a player of this strength in the Olympic Games is indeed a bit of a bully.

Facing Zhang Guan, the Ecuadorian player named Castillo is obviously "cowardly before fighting". And the trend of the game also confirmed this, Zhang Guan's successive waves of attacks and Castillo could not parry.

Before the first round was over, the referee stopped the match early.

In the rules of boxing at the Olympic Games, if the difference in strength between the two sides is too large, the referee can terminate the match early. And now, Castillo, who was instigated before the fight, looked like he was being hanged, and even the referee couldn't stand it, so he simply terminated the game and directly announced Zhang Guan's call.

And Castillo didn't have the slightest objection to this result, and he even wished that the game was over soon.

……

On August 2, Zhang Guan faced a formidable opponent in the third round of tennis, the tournament's third seed, Rafael Nadal.

In the historical London Olympics, Nadal did not participate due to injury, but Nadal won the gold medal at the 2008 Olympics at that time, so even if he did not participate in the London Olympics, it would not affect Nadal to win the Golden Slam.

However, history changed, Zhang Guan won the championship in 2008, so Nadal participated in the London Olympics with an injury in order to win the Golden Slam.

The duel between two of the world's top players was not as intense as people thought, and Nadal was in very poor form due to injury. And grass is not what Nadal is good at, so this high-profile match turned out to be a one-sided victory for Zhang Guan.

Losing to Zhang Guan again, Nadal was also helpless, but remembering that he was not Zhang Guan's opponent in his heyday, it was normal for him to not be able to beat Zhang Guan when he was injured.

Zhang Guan only had tennis matches on this day, so after the match, Zhang Guan left Wimbledon and bought several newspapers on the way back, and they were all tabloids with a very small circulation.

"The newspaper has already published it."

"This one has already been published!"

"It's also in this French-language newspaper."

Zhang Guan breathed a sigh of relief, the newspapers had already published the news that the British cycling team deliberately fell and bribed the referee, which made Zhang Guan feel that his money was not spent in vain.

"You can wait for the show!" Zhang Guan turned on the TV with great interest and found the track cycling competition.

……

In track cycling at the London Olympics, gold medals will be decided today in two events: the women's team sprint and the men's team sprint.

In the men's team sprint, Germany defeated Australia and won the bronze medal. Afterwards, the hosts Great Britain and France took to the field for the final

At the beginning of the race, the start in England was very unfavorable, and the runner, Hinders, fell to the ground.

The referee suspended the bout, then attributed Sindes' fall to an accident caused by a slippery field and asked both riders to restart.

On the second grid, Great Britain took the lead, winning the team sprint with a final time of 42.600 seconds, while France finished second with a time of 43.013 seconds.

……

In the press area, Ciro, a reporter from France, looked at the scene in front of him, but his body kept trembling.

"It's true! The revelation in the report I saw earlier turned out to be true! The British team really faked a fall, and the referee helped them! The newspaper said that the British team had bribed the referee and the organizing committee! Oh my God, scandal! The host country bribed the referees and the organizing committee for the gold medal, which is probably the biggest scandal in the history of the Olympic Games. ”

Realizing this, Ciro immediately took his backpack in front of him and looked down for the newspaper, but rummaged through the entire bag and found nothing.

"What about newspapers? What about the newspaper! By the way, when I first walked in the door, I threw it in the trash! Without saying a word, Ciro rushed in and out of the press area, walked to the trash can outside the door, and didn't care that it was full of garbage, so he reached out and took it out.

The surrounding crowd all cast strange glances, a very good young man, rummaging through the garbage cans there, and looking excited, it was indeed a little weird. If it weren't for the fact that Ciro was dressed more normally, it is estimated that someone would have called the mental hospital.

"Found it, this is it, The Observer!" Ciro finally found the newspaper, and although the paper was already stained with juice, it didn't affect Ciro's reading, and he easily found the report.

According to people familiar with the matter...... Ciro read the report three times, then shouted happily and rushed back to the press area with the newspaper.

"Hahaha, it's going to be a post-match interview soon, and I'll see how you Britons end up then!"
