Chapter 240: Match strategy with Jill Varjes after the game
In the first match of the quarterfinals of the 64kg class of the World Championships, Wang Hao and Latiz finally won by knocking out Latiz in less than 20 seconds.
Wang Hao's last knockout of Latiz's two uppercuts were heavy, and they were combos, which directly caused Latiz to fall to the ground.
At the moment when the referee waved his hand to signal the end of the game, Wang Hao excitedly raised his right hand, jumped onto the boxing rope, clenched his right fist, exposed his developed biceps, and saluted the audience.
At the moment when the referee announced the end of the game, the Chinese boxing team Bian Fang, Sun Zeyong and others also quickly rushed into the arena, jumped happily, and hugged Wang Hao.
As a former national junior champion in Cuba and the gold medalist in the 60kg class at the last World Championships, Latiz is very strong, Wang Hao actually won in the form of a direct KO of Latiz in 20 seconds, which made Bian Fang and Sun Zeyong and others very excited, they felt that Wang Hao was too brave.
The audience at the scene also stood up one after another and applauded Wang Hao and Wang Hao for this wonderful game.
This match was exciting enough, especially the moment when Wang Hao knocked down Latiz, which was shocking enough for the audience to enjoy the great charm of boxing.
Because in the last round, Wang Hao and Latiz performed well enough, both knocked out their opponents in the first round to win, and Latiz also took the initiative to provoke Wang Hao after the match, so the audience at the scene had long expected that this match would be exciting.
But the excitement and shock of the real game is still beyond everyone's imagination, they think that Latiz and Wang Hao should be equal opponents, before the game many viewers also predicted that Latiz will win, but Wang Hao is so strong, it only took 20 seconds to knock out Latiz.
"It's so exciting!" Some viewers at the scene couldn't help but speak.
"Wang Hao is really a genius! You must know that Latiz is the champion of the last 60kg class, and now he is also the eighth boxer in the 64kg class, after the end of this year's World Championships, no matter what Wang Hao's final position in this tournament is, the ranking of the International Boxing Federation will definitely improve significantly! Another audience member said.
"Hmmm! At least the top eight didn't run! And this knockout rate is also too shocking, the three fights won are all first-round knockout wins! It's so tough! Some viewers admired.
Wang Hao in the ring stood on several fist corners in turn while waiting for the referee to finally announce the results of the game, saluting the audience.
For Wang Hao, the fight was indeed won cleanly, but Wang Hao knew very well that the reason why he was able to knock out Latiz so quickly and win was largely due to the game strategy adopted by both sides.
In this game, Latiz chose to fight fiercely with Wang Hao at the beginning, giving Wang Hao a great opportunity, although Latiz also hit Wang Hao with a few heavy punches, but that was not enough to shock Wang Hao.
In terms of the ability to fight with strength and resistance as the core, Wang Hao's ability is obviously stronger than Latiz, which is a mistake of Latiz and his coaching team.
If Latiz had played more obscenely today, although Wang Hao thought that he could still win, he would definitely not have been so quick and crisp, because after all, Latiz was very fast and had a very high level of skill.
Almost a minute after the match, Latiz, who was knocked out by Wang Hao, was still lying in the ring, although he had regained consciousness, but he was still very weak, and the members of the Cuban boxing team and medical personnel who rushed into the ring told him not to move easily.
Latitz's coach did not come to the ring, and at the moment when Latiz was knocked down by Wang Hao, and at the end of the game, Latiz's coach hid his face and sat on the chair and never got up.
Today's defeat was so miserable, even worse than the last time Latiz met Wang Hao in the semifinals of the World Junior Boxing Championships, and Latiz's coach knew that he had a lot to blame for this defeat.
Because he knew Wang Hao's toughness, in order to win the game, Latitz's coach carefully formulated a game strategy for Latitz, including the Polish opponent in the last game, and the provocation of Wang Hao after the game, including a strong attack at the beginning of today's game, all of which are carefully planned by Latitz's coach, in order to suppress Wang Hao's play and even affect Wang Hao's psychology.
But I didn't expect that the final result was the same, or even worse, Wang Hao's game perfectly demonstrated his technical level and confrontation ability, Latiz was knocked down completely because of strength, mainly because of the obvious gap in confrontation ability.
After the fight, Hernandez immediately stepped into the ring to take care of Latiz, who was very concerned about Latiz's health as a senior brother.
However, when he stepped into the ring, Hernandez's heart was also very unsettled, and Wang Hao's two sharp right uppercuts that knocked out Latiz also shook Hernandez.
After watching this game, Hernandez really understood why Latiz and his coach were like a big enemy when facing Wang Hao.
Although Wang Hao is a Chinese boxer, Hernandez has already seen that in terms of technique, strength and reaction speed, Wang Hao is a first-class or even super-first-class fighter in the 64kg class.
Hernandez knows he will have another tough opponent to watch out for at next year's U.S. Olympics.
This makes Hernandez feel a little pressure, but more excitement, he has been dominating the 64kg division for six or seven years, and he is too eager to challenge, Wang Hao is one of the few fighters in this division who can bring him a feeling of excitement.
Hernandez was also glad that he came to Hamburg this time to watch the match between Wang Hao and Latitz, otherwise he would have waited until the Olympics to pay attention to Wang Hao's existence, and he would have been too hasty to prepare.
When the results of the match were announced, Latiz was still lying in the ring to recover, Wang Hao was pulled to the center of the ring by the referee on the court, and the host announced the result of the match.
"In the 64kg match of the World Championships, the first game of the quarterfinals, the match between Wang Hao and Latiz, won by Wang Hao knocking out the opponent."
The moment the referee raised Wang Hao's right hand high on the field, the audience at the scene once again applauded Wang Hao's wonderful performance.
This was followed by three other quarterfinals in the 64kg category, with several favourites, including the sixth-ranked American Jill Watters of the International Boxing Federation, the fifth-ranked Russian fighter Nagaev, and the third-ranked and highest-ranked ITA 64kg fighter of the tournament, Bulgarian Ichkov, who won their respective bouts without any problems.
In this way, in this World Championships, the top four boxers in the 64 kg class will all be decided, Wang Hao, Jill Vajies, Nagaev and Ichkov will determine the gold and silver medalists through the next three games, and the two boxers who failed to enter the final in the top four will automatically tie for third place.
This is the rule of boxing, and the two fighters who lose in the semifinals will no longer compete for third place and will tie for third place.
In other words, Wang Hao has played at least one bronze medal in this World Championships, which is already a big breakthrough, and Bian Fang, the coach of the national boxing team, is also very happy.
And Wang Hao, who has been engaged in boxing since this life, is determined to win the first place in all the competitions he has participated in, and will naturally not be satisfied with only winning the third place in this World Championships.
Wang Hao watched the three fights of Jill Watters, Ichkov and Nagaev carefully under the ring, and Wang Hao is actually very familiar with his opponent in the next fight, Gil Watters.
The two competed together at the World Junior Boxing Championships more than two years ago, when the two did not meet in a match, and Jill Vages met the Soviet fighter Kamenlev, who later won a silver medal, and was eliminated prematurely.
But in that tournament, Wang Hao once played Jill Vargers' younger brother Karl Varjes in the group stage and won the match by knockout.
Therefore, Wang Hao is relatively familiar with Jill Watters, and Gil Watters is naturally no stranger to Wang Hao.
Wang Hao knows that Jill Vargers' strength is still very strong, Gil Vargers was once the champion of the American Junior Golden Glove Tournament, and in the World Junior Boxing Championships more than two years ago, although Gil Vargers lost to Kamenlev, but the gap is not big.
And Wang Hao learned from Bian Fang, Jill Varjes also played very well after entering adult boxing, and in the last World Championships, Gil Varjes also participated, and finally won a bronze medal, which is a very good result for a boxer who participated in the World Championships for the first time.
And Wang Hao knows that Jill Vajes must have made some progress in the past two years, so the International Boxing Federation 64kg ranking will rank Jill Vajes in sixth, second only to Nagaev, who is ranked fifth, and Ichkov, who is ranked third, among all the fighters who participated.
Because the semi-finals are more important, there is a three-day break between the quarterfinals and the start of the semi-finals, during which Wang Hao will go to Berlin to watch Vitaly Klitschko's WBO World Heavyweight Challenge, and the rest of the time will be spent preparing for the fight against Jill Watters.
On the night of the quarterfinals of the 64kg World Boxing Championships, there were four people sitting in the room of American boxer Jill Watters, one was Gil Watters himself, as well as Gil Watters' coach and assistant coach, and one of Gil Watters' closest teammates.
Although Jill Varjes won the match smoothly today, his emotions were not high, and he was even a little depressed, thinking about the match with Wang Hao in a few days.
Jill Varjes watched Wang Hao's match with Latiz carefully today, and was also shocked, and Gil Varjes knew that counting today's match with Latiz, this was the third time that Wang Hao won the first round of the World Championships.
Wang Hao's ability to destroy his opponent made Jill Varjes feel a lot of pressure.
"Jill!" Jill Watters' coach observed Gil Watters' expression, he patted Gil Wizards on the shoulder, and said, "Three days later, the match with Wang Hao, don't worry too much, Latiz lost miserably today because of the game strategy, we prepare well, and in the game three days later, we will not only not lose as badly as Latiz, but will also have a great chance to win the game!" ”
Jill Varjes' coach inspires Gil Varjes.
"Latitz's advantage lies in speed and technique, confrontation ability is not his strong point, and he did not understand Wang Hao's confrontation ability, so he rashly attacked at the beginning of the game, which is the biggest reason for today's defeat." Jill Varjes' coach analyses.
Jill Varjes listened to the coach's analysis and nodded.
"You're more muscular and resistant than Latiz, and you haven't had a knockout finish since you started boxing. You have to be confident in your ability to fight! Jill Vargers' coach continued to analyze.
Hearing this, Jill Varjes also remembered that his ability to resist hitting was indeed his strong point, and he couldn't help but straighten his waist.
Jill Varjes remembers that he's fought over a hundred amateur fights, and it's true that no fighter has managed to knock himself out so far.
The coach's words gave Jill Varjes a lot of confidence to regain his confidence.
Jill Varjes' coach continued: "In my opinion, the ability to resist striking in the match between you and Wang Hao will not be a problem, as long as we pay attention to movement and do not actively seek confrontation, Wang Hao will have no way to take you, even if two or three heavy punches hit you occasionally, it will not hurt you hard." But your arm span is shorter than Wang Hao, which is a problem that needs attention. ”
Listening to the coach's analysis, Jill Varjes continued to nod, and he now realized that he didn't need to worry too much about Wang Hao's destructive ability.
However, Jill Watters' short arm span is a real disadvantage for him, although Gil Watters' height is comparable to Wang Hao's, but Gil Wizards' arm span is shorter than his own height, and it is naturally shorter than Wang Haolai.
As a boxer, generally speaking, it is better to have a longer arm span than his height, but Jill Varjes is because of congenital reasons, the arm span is shorter than his height, which is his pain point as a boxer.
Gil Varjes' coach continued: "To win the fight against Wang, you have to move a lot and preferably come to Wang Hao's close-range punches, but to do that, you have to break through Wang's defense, so the focus of our preparation for the past three days has been to move and get close to the opponent. ”
