Chapter 206: Two Knockouts
While Wang Hao pondered the technical characteristics of the two, the match between Latiz and Kulishenko was still going on in the ring.
After more than a minute of tepidness, the two suddenly came to the middle and close range, and they coincidentally fought a confrontation at close range.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Kulishenko threw short straight and uppercuts.
Latiz, on the other hand, held very tightly and blocked Kurishenko's first two straight punches with two punches, but accidentally left a gap under the middle and was hit by Kurishenko's left uppercut.
However, on the heels of this day, Latiz also landed back-to-back left-handed uppercuts and flat uppercuts that were very fast.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Kulishenko lowered his fist and blocked Latiz's two uppercuts, only to be hit on both cheeks by two flat hooks that Latiz switched at lightning speed.
Boom!
Kurishenko threw a backhand punch, but by this time Latiz had quickly retreated and came to a long distance, and Kurishenko's backhand punch was missed.
For the remainder of the first round, the two men were once again in a long-range, low-tempo battle.
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
Ten seconds before the end of the first round, the sound of slapping sounded.
Kurishenko, who knew that he was at a disadvantage in the first round, wanted to take advantage of the last time to get a little bit back and make a good impression on the referee.
Kurishenko quickly stepped forward and landed a flurry of combinations.
However, Latiz quickly retreated, allowing Kurishenko's shot to miss, while striking a forehand to snipe Kurishenko.
With four or five seconds left in the first round, Kulishenko saw that he failed in the first round of strikes, and immediately stepped forward and attacked again.
Boom!
This time, Latiz spotted a gap that Kurishenko was anxious to expose and hit him with a left-handed punch that hit Kurishenko's jaw directly, causing the latter's offensive to be stunned.
Sou!
Kulishenko landed a powerful right hook at the end, but he didn't grasp the distance at all and shot in front of Latiz, just as the bell rang for the end of the first round.
Bite! Bell bell bell!
Hearing the bell ring for the end of the first round, the referee quickly moved forward and separated the two fighters, and Kulishenko and Latiz also quickly stopped and walked towards the corner of their fist.
The first round of the fight between Latiz and Kurishenko was over, and the two men didn't fight too hard in the first round, and there were no knockdowns, but in terms of points, it was clear that Cuban fighter Latiz, who had the upper hand in speed and reflexes.
The two fighters sat in their own boxing corners to rest, and during the break, the coaching teams of both sides fed the two fighters water to cool down, and at the same time gave the two fighters advice on their fights.
Latiz's coaching staff is also all black, and they give Latiz advice to make Latiz's style of play more varied to expand the point advantage and avoid being caught by the opponent in the rhythm of movement.
On the other hand, Kulishenko's coaching team is all Soviet whites, and they are also nervous to give Kulishenko advice.
"Latiz is fast forward and backward, and it can be difficult for you to take advantage of the punches with straight punches, try to step forward and land some hooks when the opponent is backing away!" Kurishenko's head coach gave Kurishenko an analysis of the first leg and came up with an idea.
Wang Hao waited under the ring for the start of the second round of their matchup, while also hearing the crowd talk about the match.
"In this fight, the two fighters are not very intense!" Some viewers complained, "I hope the next two rounds can be more beautiful, not like the first two games, too bland!" ”
"That's right! I also think the same way, or the Chinese boxer Wang Hao and the Puerto Rican boxer The fight was better, three knockouts in one round, it was so refreshing! Someone next to him also said.
Wang Hao was also relieved to hear the audience praising the excitement of his game, and a smile appeared on his face.
Although becoming the world's professional boxing middleweight hegemon is Wang Hao's own dream and goal, boxing is a competitive sport, and the reason why it exists and flourishes is because it has a considerable mass base and because the audience likes to watch boxing matches.
Therefore, Wang Hao feels that not only becoming the middleweight boxing hegemon is his goal, how to make the game look better and more exciting, so that the audience can enjoy his boxing match is more important, and the audience's love will become a great help for Wang Hao to achieve the goal of middleweight boxing, and Wang Hao also enjoys it, playing a wonderful game, making tens of thousands of viewers happy.
This is the beauty of boxing, especially professional boxing!
This is also the reason why Tyson, who was at his peak in the early 90s, is still the favorite fighter in the eyes of many people after more than 20 years.
Bite! Bell bell bell!
In Wang Hao's thoughts, the second round of the match between Kurishchenko and Latiz began, and Wang Hao quickly pulled back his thoughts and focused on the match.
Boom! Boom!
As soon as the round came on, Latiz struck first and landed two very fast straight punches, one of which was a left-handed straight feint, hitting Kulishenko's gloves to attract Kurishenko's attention, and then immediately dived and the second straight right hand hit Kurishenko in the abdomen.
It was a clear hit, and at the start of the second round, Latiz was also the first to score.
Kulishenko threw a powerful right hook at Latiz, and after the win, Latiz immediately retreated as before, leaving no chance for Kurishenko, and Kulishenko's hook was empty.
In the first round of the match, Kulishenko hit a counterattack or a counterattack, and it was a straight punch, because in their technical system, straight punches are used a lot and are also very effective.
However, because Latiz was too fast to advance and retreat, and in the first round, Kulishenko's straight punches that met or countered hardly hit Latiz, so the coach proposed a strategy for Kurishenko to move forward and counter with hooks during the round.
At this time, Kulishenko also began to throw hooks, finding a feeling.
Kulishenko has a lot of power in his hooks, and he knows that it will be difficult to win against Latiz, who has the advantage of speed on points, especially if Latiz has the advantage in points in the first round, and only hard punches can be used to knock or inflict a blow on Latiz.
The two continued to fight each other in medium and long distances, hitting each other, but Latiz still hit a little more than Kurishenko, with an average of two punches from Kurishenko and three punches from Kurishenko.
Sou!
In the attack, Latiz once again showed his fast-forward and fast-break strategy, and suddenly a sliding step came in front of Kulishenko, and at the same time two short-distance straight punches were made, the first straight right hand was blocked by Kulishenko's gloves, and the second left straight punch hit Kurishenko's chest, which was clear again.
Kurishenko has been looking for an opportunity to meet or effectively counter Latiz, and when Latiz is forward, Kurishenko also makes a left-handed flat hook to meet Latiz, but the speed is still slow, and Kurishenko's left flat hook is empty in the back of Latiz's head.
Latiz landed two straight punches with his left and right hands, and immediately slid back as soon as he got the spot, which was a consistent operation that relied on the advantage of speed.
At this moment, Kulishenko, who had been preparing to make changes according to his coach's instructions in the rounds, quickly took a step forward, and at the same time threw a powerful right hook that hit Latiz in the head.
Boom!
Latiz, who was retreating, was right in the path of Kurishenko's right hook and was hit directly to the left side of the head.
Kurishenko's punch was full of strength, hit it very hard, and met it in the air as Latiz moved, almost knocking Latiz away, and Latiz fell to the ground after the punch.
"Oh!"
The audience at the scene exclaimed, they didn't expect that the surprise attack that seemed to be no different from the previous attack between the two, Kurishenko suddenly knocked out Latiz, who had always had the advantage in points, with a big hook.
The audience was so excited that many of them stood up to see if Latiz would be able to stand up.
Wang Hao was under the ring, and saw that Kulishenko suddenly knocked Latiz down with a hook, and he also understood that Kulishenko had changed his skills in this round, which was already seen by Wang Hao since the second round, when Kulishenko played more hooks in counterattacks.
But this time, the knockdown was a combination of counter-attacking hooks and forward movements, and the two worked, and Wang Hao knew that it must have been Kulishenko's coaching team who paid attention to Kurishenko between rounds.
"Hah!"
Seeing that Kulishenko knocked down Latiz with one punch, Kulishenko's coaching team also let out a shout of excitement, Kulishenko has been lagging behind in points, whether he can turn defeat into victory and win this game, it depends on the effect of this punch and Kulishenko's grasp of the opportunity to play.
Kulishenko, who knocked out Latiz, was also very excited, according to the rules of the game, after the fighter was knocked down, the opponent needed to retreat to the other corner.
But Kulishchenko did not retreat, but took two steps forward, and if Latiz was able to get back up, he wanted to rush up again and give Latiz a heavy blow.
"Stand back! Go to the fist! ”
The tall referee from Germany stood between the two fighters and first signaled Kulishenko to retreat into the opposite boxing corner.
Reluctantly, Kurishenko moved backwards, retreated into the corner, leaned against the rope, and watched as the referee counted the seconds for Latiz.
"Three!"
"Four!"
On the field, the referee began to count the seconds for Latiz.
Latiz was unexpectedly knocked out by Kurishenko suddenly, but despite being hit hard by Kurishenko's right hook, Latiz's consciousness is still very clear, thanks to his very good ability to resist strikes.
Although Kulishenko's right hook was heavy for the knockdown just now, Latiz's fall was not due to vertigo after the hit, but mainly because of the external force that made him lose his balance.
Therefore, Latiz was also very fast, and when the referee counted to "six", he stood up from the ground and signaled that he could continue the game.
On the field, the referee checked Latiz's condition and confirmed that Latiz could indeed continue the game, and then signaled for the two to continue.
The audience at the scene all looked intently at the ring, and the small ring focused on the burning eyes of thousands of spectators at the scene, and they knew that Kurishenko, who finally knocked out Latiz with a heavy punch, would not let go of this opportunity, and would definitely rush up to give Latiz a fierce attack.
They didn't know if Latiz would be able to withstand the next storm, and if Kurishenko would be able to destroy Latiz with a devastating twist, and everyone looked nervously at the ring.
Sou!
Seeing the referee signaling the start of the game, Kurishenko, who couldn't wait, naturally rushed up immediately, wanting to pour all his strength on Latiz.
Boom!
Latiz didn't sit still and quickly landed an intricate right hook that hit Kulishenko in the forehead.
Kurishenko, who was hit, was slightly stunned, but immediately pressed up, and the two came to a medium and close range.
Latiz clenched his fists and stepped back, leaning against the edge of the rope in two steps.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Kurishenko's combination of punches poured out, and he hit Latiz with all his strength, a straight punch with his left and right hands, a flat hook, and an uppercut, all pouring towards Latiz's head.
But Latiz kept shaking his body, dodging most of Kurishenko's straight and uppercuts, while the fist was also very tight, and a few punches hit Latiz's gloves, and there was no way to open Latiz's box.
Kulishenko threw more than two dozen punches with all his might, but all of them were ineffective.
Wang Hao can see clearly under the ring, although Kulishenko is attacking with all his might, but Latiz's defense is airtight, and his body is also very tough and full of strength, obviously although Kulishenko knocked down Latiz just now, he did not inflict a heavy blow on Latiz.
After throwing more than two dozen punches with all his strength, Kulishenko was also tired, he took a step back, rested for two seconds, and did not punch.
Seeing that Kurishenko was no longer fighting, Latiz also let go of his fist and shook his head at Kurishenko, which means that your firepower is not good, it is far behind.
Kurishenko was furious, and he knew that if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity, Latiz would have even less chance of fully recovering.
Taking two deep breaths, Kurishenko once again exerted his strength and launched a stormy attack on Latiz.
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
Clear punches and blows resounded in the ring, but those punches were mostly blocked by Latiz's gloves, and although Kulishenko had used almost all his strength, he still couldn't open Latiz's defense.
Kulishenko was tired, the crazy attack was a bit overdrawn, and he saw that there was no way to open the defense of Latiz's head, so he threw two punches at Latiz's body, seeking to get a point, and at the same time his body leaned on Latiz's body to try to rest.
However, while Kulishenko was on the attack, the defensively sleek Latiz had been resting and preparing for a counterattack.
At this time, seeing that Kurishenko was exhausted and did not have much strength, Latiz jerked Kurishenko, and his body moved out of his right side nimbly, leaving the side of the rope, and then turned to face Kurishenko.
Boom!
Latiz first landed a straight forehand that hit Kulishenko's face.
Boom!
Immediately after, Latiz landed another right hand that hit Kulishenko in the left side of the face from top to bottom.
The weak and weak Kurishenko, after receiving a heavy blow, pulled the rope and sat down.
