Chapter 425 Boxing Contest (210)

Chapter 425 Boxing Competition (2/10)

Seeing Franco coming, Link stopped to talk to him about the next boxing match, starting with the WBA light heavyweight challenge in Hong Kong in June.

After this match, the time and place of the next match will be determined based on the responses of the three major organizations WBC-IBF-WBO.

If the three boxing champions continue to choose to avoid fighting, they will need to participate in the boxing champion challenge of other organizations, obtain the qualification of boxing champion challenger, and force the opponent to fight.

Just need to participate in a few more matches.

But the premise of all this is that he must beat Beirut Shumenov and get the WBA light heavyweight champion gold belt.

To ensure that there is no risk, he will conduct intensive training during this period before the match to strive to improve his overall strength.

After sending Franco away, Link returned to the equipment area and continued strength training. During training, he found that Christine had not appeared in the training area for a long time. He thought she had left, so he did not pay attention to her anymore.

After finishing strength training, he continued to skip rope to practice the flexibility of his footwork and the coordination of his hands and feet.

In boxing, the coordination of hands and feet is extremely important. If the footwork can keep up with the speed of the punch, the body's center of gravity is stable, and the punch will be heavier and cause more damage.

If the footwork cannot keep up with the speed of the punch, the punch will be floating, causing minimal damage, and sometimes even causing a fall.

This is why many boxers often use a punch weight tester to test more than a thousand pounds of force.

But in real competitions, the force output of the fist is often only two or three hundred, three or four hundred, which is also closely related to the coordination of hands and feet.

After practicing for more than three hours, he was exhausted and sweating.

"Do you want to eat something?"

Christine came over from the rest area with a sandwich in her hand.

She was still wearing denim hot pants, revealing two white thighs. Her T-shirt was a little damp, but the outline of her black underwear was gone. There were two eye-catching bumps on the front. He quickly looked away and said with a palm bandage wrapped around his palm:

"The training is not over yet, so I can't eat for the time being. Did you just go to buy food?"

"Yes, I just walked around the club and found that there is a cafeteria here, so I bought some food. You haven't finished training for more than three hours, so how long do you train every day?"

Christine looked at his strong chest muscles and eight abdominal muscles and asked.

"Not sure, three hours a day when I'm busy, more than seven or eight hours when I'm free."

"More than three hours of training every day? This is the case for a whole year?"

Christine asked.

"Yes, I'm a professional boxer. How can I win a game without training?"

Link shrugged.

Christine blinked, very surprised.

I used to see Link's scandals on the news and thought that his daily life was to go from one woman to another, fooling around with women in the villa every day, and living a very chic life.

Now that I have seen him train, I realize that it is not the case at all.

He is a boxer, and he has to train every day, and spends most of his time in the training hall. Sometimes he has to record records, manage company affairs, and make movies.

This guy is busier and more fulfilled than everyone else.

Christine suddenly understood why he was so good, because he was very good, and he was also very diligent and hardworking.

Compared with him, Christine found that she was just a female slacker who had no goals, no ambition, and did nothing all day.

Thinking of this, Christine was very confused. She rolled her eyes at Link in dissatisfaction, turned around and walked out, ready to find something to do.

"Wait a minute! There are more men in the training ground, and it is not convenient for you to dress like this. I have T-shirts and bathrooms in my locker room. If you don't mind, you can change into a T-shirt. It may be bigger, but it is more comfortable than wearing wet clothes."

Link said.

Christine looked down at the outline of her chest and said expressionlessly: "You men can go without clothes, so what's wrong with us not wearing underwear?"

"Nothing, I just made a suggestion, I don't mean to force you."

Link spread his hands and stood in front of the sandbag to prepare for boxing training.

"Okay, where is your locker room?"

Christine asked.

Link stopped to show her the direction and continued to practice boxing.

More than half an hour later, Christine returned to the training ground.

Her long golden hair was draped wetly on her shoulders. She was only wearing a large T-shirt with a belt around her slender waist. The neckline of the T-shirt was relatively wide, revealing her fair and delicate collarbone, and occasionally her shoulders.

The hem of the T-shirt was relatively long, hanging down one foot above her knees, and it was impossible to tell whether she was wearing shorts.

Her legs were very beautiful, white, straight, and round. Although they were less than one meter long, they were sexy enough.

After Christine appeared, the boxers who were concentrating on training around her gradually became absent-minded, and occasionally cast a sneak peek in this direction.

"What are you looking at! Haven't you seen a beauty before? Do you want to find a few bikini girls for you to see?"

De La Hoya shouted in the aisle.

Most of the people present were boxers under Golden Boy Promotions. When they heard him shouting, they all looked away embarrassedly and concentrated on training.

De La Hoya walked over with a gloomy face, and wanted to persuade Christine to wear an extra piece of clothing so as not to affect everyone's training.

But considering that it was her first time here and she was a big beauty and a big star, he was embarrassed to say anything harsh.

The advice that was about to come to his lips turned into a smiling greeting, and he also invited her to come often when she was free.

Since it was inappropriate to scold Christine, he would ridicule Link a few times, but seeing that Link was still concentrating on training and was not distracted by Christine from beginning to end, he had nowhere to vent his ridicule.

Hoya glared at Link with dissatisfaction. This guy was not only strong in himself, but also very serious in training, and had no eyes for women.

Compared with him, all the professional boxers under Golden Boy Promotion were like half-hearted losers.

Hoya suddenly felt that it was a mistake to agree to Link to stay here for training. He originally thought that Link was a super boxing champion, and asking him to train here would allow the boxers promoted by Golden Boy to learn from him.

But things went against his wishes, and Link's negative effects were greater.

Link was a pervert who could train seven or eight hours a day in the boxing ring. Some boxers wanted to learn from him and increase their daily training volume, hoping to become as strong as him.

As a result, few became stronger, and the number of people injured in training was several times more than before.

For this reason, he had to make a clear rule that, except for Link, the training time of boxers per week should not exceed thirty-six hours.

The consequence of this rule is that every day when the boxers finish training, Link is still hitting the sandbag crazily in the training ground.

Everyone sees that he, a world boxing champion, is so hardworking, while these ordinary boxers are resting, and they are not at ease when they are resting.

This matter makes De La Hoya very distressed, but there is no good solution.

Now a new distress has emerged. Link not only trains here, but also intends to use this place as a place to pick up girls. It is too outrageous.

De La Hoya thinks that the reconstruction of the training hall should be accelerated, and Link's private training ground should be built as soon as possible, so that he can practice alone in seclusion in the future to avoid affecting others.

"Link, concentrate on training and don't look around."

De La Hoya shouted and left without looking back.

Link didn't hear De La Hoya's shouting. His attention was all on the sandbag. He punched the sandbag again and again, sometimes eight or nine hundred times, sometimes thousands of times, until his arms and wrists were sore, and then he stopped to rest.

"Link, do you want to practice with Jeremiah? Let me see how you fight a heavyweight boxer."

Morales shouted on the ring.

Link looked at the sturdy Jeremiah Johnson, who was 32 years old, 193 cm tall, weighed 122 kg, and had a professional record of 24 wins, 7 losses and 1 draw in 32 fights. He was an experienced heavyweight boxer.

Link didn't refuse. He put on his gloves and went to the ring to fight with Jeremiah.

He had fought Tyson before, and he was not lacking in experience when dealing with heavyweight opponents.

Heavyweight boxers are mostly tall, strong, and muscular. Their punches are very heavy. The average punch weight of the intercontinental champion is about 1,000 pounds, the international champion is about 1,200 pounds, and the world champion is about 1,500 pounds.

In the 1980s and 1990s, there were many super champions in the heavyweight field, and their punches were heavier.

By the 2010s, due to the increase in tall heavyweight boxers, the average height of the top 50 heavyweight boxers in the four major organizations has also increased from 186.5 20 years ago to 188 cm, which has also led to an increase in average punch weight.

Although their punches are lethal, they are also slower due to their body shape, arm length, charging time, muscle flexibility and other reasons.

Lightweight boxers throw six or seven punches per second, while they throw three or four punches per second.

In the heavyweight field, boxers with fast speed and heavy punches are more likely to become boxing champions.

For example, Tyson, who is less than 180 cm tall, is no slower than a middleweight boxer. There are also Chris Bird, James Toney, John Ruiz, Shannon Briggs, and Klitschko, who are all representatives of this type of boxers.

The reason why the Oriental beast Valuev became the boxing champion was that there was no one in the boxing world in the past two years, only the old guys like Huo were fighting hard, and the other was that the Klitschko brothers avoided fighting.

At this time, Jeremiah Johnson, who Link faced, was also a power boxer. His speed was much slower than Tyson in 2008. Link could almost accurately avoid every blow from him and punch him in the face.

In order to play a training role, he did not use his full strength every time he attacked, but stopped at the right time.

Christine stood under the ring and watched him box quietly.

When Link went on stage, she saw that the opponent was taller than Link and had a stronger body, and she was worried that Link would be beaten.

After the two started fighting, Link moved flexibly, accurately avoided the opponent's fists again and again, and hit the opponent's important parts continuously, leaving the seemingly powerful opponent without any chance to fight back.

Christine suddenly fell in love with the sport of boxing. She used to think that boxing was a sport about whose fist was heavier, and it was very rough and barbaric.

After watching Link's match on the spot, she realized that the strength and weakness in boxing could not be seen by the eyes alone.

It was necessary to wait until both sides stood on the boxing ring and went through several rounds of strength, speed, and technical confrontations to know who was stronger.

But now there is one thing she can be sure of, Link is very powerful. When he faced an opponent who was much stronger than him, he was not in a hurry, calm and composed, and used superb combination punches to beat his opponent back again and again.

"Link is an unsolvable boxer. No matter what level of boxer meets him, he can't get the upper hand. In the future, when he goes to the heavyweight field, he will probably have a chance to get a few gold belts."

Morales said.

De La Hoya looked at Link on the ring with a complicated expression.

Jeremiah is the 32nd ranked boxer in the WBC heavyweight class and has won the Intercontinental Boxing Championship. However, he had no way to deal with Link, a super middleweight boxer.

With Link's level, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be promoted to heavyweight in the future and will most likely win one or two gold belts.

By that time, Link's appearance fee will probably be higher, earning tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars in a boxing match.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly curse Franco for his dog shit luck. He made a real fortune by betting on the right treasure once.

In the ring, Link and Jeremiah fought for ten rounds. Jeremiah was so tired that he was panting, sweating profusely, and began to stagger when he walked. This was a sign of exhaustion.

Link retracted his fist and announced a break.

"Link, can you teach me how to box?"

Christine asked when she saw him coming down the stage.

"Why do you want to learn boxing?"

Link took off his boxing gloves. The weather was too hot. After wearing them for a while, sweat would pour out of the gloves.

"I think boxing is cool."

Christine said, shaking her delicate fist.

"No problem!"

Link smiled lightly and arranged for her to punch the sandbag next to him.
