Chapter 291: The interview and the semi-finals are over

The moment the referee waved to announce the end of the game, the audience resounded with exclamations and long and fierce applause.

In the International Boxing Federation 64kg rankings, Wang Hao ranked third and Kamenlev ranked second, both of whom are the best fighters in the International Boxing Federation division, and the rankings are not much different, and their performances before the semifinals are also eye-catching.

In the eyes of everyone, although it is possible for anyone to win this game, it must be evenly matched, not much different, and even older, Kamenlev, who is slightly higher, should have a slightly bigger chance of winning, but everyone did not expect that Wang Hao not only won this game, but also won this game in a shocking way.

After only two rounds in the entire bout, Wang knocked out Kamenlev three times, once in the first round and twice in the second, and all of them were knocked out with a small hook in his left hand.

And one punch is heavier than the other, the knockdown in the first round is basically mainly because Kamenlev lost his center of gravity, and the first knockout of Wang Hao in the second round really injured Kamenlev, and the second knockdown in the second round, Wang Hao seriously injured Kamenlev, so that the latter could not fully stand on his feet after the referee read eight, and directly lost the game.

In the eyes of the spectators, the bout was truly exciting and shocking, with most of the crowd standing up and applauding Wang Hao, while some of Kamenlev's loyal fans, mostly Russians, looked gloomy and couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.

"It's so exciting!" A viewer from Canada exclaimed, "This Chinese fighter is so sharp, he has seized the opportunity so well, it feels like he really has a chance to compete with Hernandez!" ”

"The knockdown of the left hand hook is too shocking, and it is three knockouts in a row, wonderful! Wonderful! Next to him, another audience member from Eastern Europe chimed in.

"It's fast! Super ability to grasp opportunities! What a boxing genius! A spectator from South America exclaimed.

In the audience, more than 100 Chinese students and overseas Chinese formed a cheering group was even more excited, and at the moment when the referee announced the victory of the game, they waved their flags and shouted, shouting "China will win" and "Wang Hao come on"!

At the moment when Wang Hao won the victory, the head coach of the Chinese national team, Bian Fang and others, also stood up and applauded loudly, and then walked into the ring, hugged Wang Hao, and cheered for victory.

Wang Hao removed the protective gear, raised his right hand, and circled the field to pay tribute to the audience.

A few minutes later, when Kamenlev was a little more recovered, the referee was ready to officially announce the result.

Wang Hao stood on the right hand side of the referee on the field, and the referee grabbed Wang Hao's left hand, while Kamenlev stood on the left hand side of the referee on the field, and the referee grabbed Kamenlev's right hand.

The host's voice rang out at the scene.

"Ladies! Gentlemen! In the first semi-final of the 64kg class, the Olympic boxing competition, Wang Hao, a boxer from China, and Kamenlev, a boxer from Russia, won the match in the form of Wang Hao knocking out his opponent in the second round! Wang Hao also successfully entered the 64kg boxing final! ”

The host's voice fell, and the referee on the field raised Wang Hao's left hand high, and the scene once again resounded with prolonged and fierce applause.

After the results of the game were officially announced, Wang Hao also took the initiative to step forward and hugged Kamenlev.

Kamenlev lost the game he was determined to win, and although his heart was very low, his good sportsmanship was still there.

Kamenlev and Wang Hao hugged tightly and said, "Congratulations! ”

Wang Hao smiled and patted Kamenlev's shoulder again.

Wang Hao and Kamenlev, Russia's current top boxer in the 64kg boxing class, have met twice, once in the final of the World Junior Boxing Championships and once in the semifinals of the Olympic Games.

As a result of such a game, Wang Hao can be said to have an advantage, and theoretically the two may meet again, but it may be in professional boxing, because after the Olympic Games, Wang Hao is bound to enter the professional boxing world.

If Kamenlev also enters professional boxing later, there is still a possibility that the two will meet again, and if Kamenlev has been playing amateur boxing within the system, the two will never meet again.

At the end of the game, Kamenlev, accompanied by the coaching team, left the field gloomily, and the next match had nothing to do with him at all, and an Olympic bronze medal was a consolation to him.

Wang Hao, who stepped off the ring, was interviewed by China's national television sports channel and the American entertainment and sports program ESPN on the sidelines.

The interview was booked in advance, and Bian Fang was responsible for arranging it for Wang Hao, who was first interviewed by a young male reporter from CCTV5 by the ring when he stepped off the ring.

"Hello! Mr. Wang Hao, first of all, congratulations on your victory in the 64kg class! The young male reporter of CCTV5 politely said, "How do you feel about winning this very important game?" “

Wang Hao replied with a smile: "I haven't thought about it yet, but now I'm happy!" The main reason why we were able to win this fight, and to win it in the form of KO, was that we had a better pre-match strategy, and the match was played against the opponent's weaknesses! ”

The young male reporter of CCTV5 continued to smile and asked: "Your victory in this game means that you have won at least one Olympic boxing silver medal, which is a very remarkable achievement, and to some extent, your silver medal is much more significant than the gold medals in many advantageous events of the Chinese team!" What are your thoughts on the upcoming finals? Are you confident that you can help the Chinese delegation and the Chinese boxing team win an Olympic boxing gold medal? ”

Wang Hao replied: "Have confidence! I also really want to win this Olympic gold medal, which is very important for the Chinese boxing team, Chinese sportsmen, and myself! I'm going to succeed, but it's definitely not going to be easy, the other place in the final will basically be locked in by Cuban fighter Hernandez, who has been dominating the FIQUAN division for six or seven years, he's very strong, the final will definitely not be easy, I'm going to play my best and play hard! Take this gold medal! ”

"Thank you for your time and I wish you the best of luck in the final! The next game will start soon, so we won't waste your time! After expressing his gratitude and blessings, the young reporter of CCTV5 ended the interview.

Immediately after, a young female reporter with blond hair from ESPN, an American entertainment and sports television station, walked up to Wang Hao.

The young female reporter of the American entertainment and sports television station ESPN smiled sweetly and said: 'Hello! Mr. Wang Hao, it is a great pleasure for you to accept our interview. “

"As we all know, boxing is the world of European and American athletes, Asian athletes rarely make a name for themselves in this event, you won the gold medal in boxing at the World Championships, and today you beat a strong Russian opponent to enter the boxing final of the Olympic Games, can you tell us, how did you do it, what are your goals in this Olympic Games, are you sure about the Olympic gold medal in the 64kg class?" The young female reporter of the American entertainment and sports television station ESPN asked continuously.

Wang Hao replied with a smile: "Originally, the appointment was a question, but you actually asked three questions at once!" It's okay, I'll answer it all! “

"At present, although boxing is indeed dominated by European and American boxers, I don't think that Asian athletes have no talent in boxing, in fact, Asian athletes are very good in agility and speed, which is also very important for boxing. As for why I was able to win the gold medal at the World Championships, it was entirely my personal efforts and the cultivation of the country. “

"For this Olympics, my goal is naturally to win the gold medal, and the opponent in the final is likely to be the current 64kg International Boxing Federation's No. 1 Cuban boxer, Hernandez, who is very strong, but I will give my all to win this match!"

"Okay! Thank you very much! Good luck with your race! After listening to Wang Hao's answer, the female reporter of ESPN, an American entertainment and sports program television station, also expressed her gratitude and blessings, and ended the interview.

Then, the second match of the 64kg semifinals, the fight between Hernandez and Nilia fighters, is about to begin.

Wang Hao also sat in the position of the athlete under the ring, waiting for the start of the game, this is the last time Wang Hao watched Hernandez's game before the final, the opportunity is rare, Wang Hao naturally will not let go of every detail.

The voice of the moderator of the contest rang out: "Dear ladies! Gentlemen! The second match of the 64kg semifinals of the Olympic boxing competition will feature Cuban boxer Hernandez and Nilia boxer Charter. ”

As the host's voice fell, Hernandez slowly stepped onto the stage in gray shorts and a tank top and a pair of golden fists, while his opponent, Nelia boxer, Chatter, wore a blue tank top and shorts and wore a black pair of fists.

Many of the spectators at the scene were fans, and they were also very familiar with Hernandez, who ruled the 64kg amateur boxing world, and many people were also fans of Hernandez, and when Hernandez took the stage, the scene was also boiling.

"Look! The first person in the 64kg class, Cuban fighter Hernandez, is on the scene! ”

"I heard that he has been dominating the 64kg division for six or seven years!"

"Yes! There are very few boxers in the boxing world who are as dominant as him, and many young talents in the 64kg class who have risen over the years have been defeated by him, and some have lost badly and have been in a trance! ”

"The most eye-catching new boxer this time is Wang Hao from China, so young, just won the World Championships, and now he has reached the finals, I don't know if I can pass Hernandez!"

Seeing the 64-kilogram ruler Hernandez appear, the audience at the scene also thought of a possible match between him and Wang Hao.

In this semi-final that is about to start, if there is no accident, Hernandez will definitely be able to win Nilia fighter Charter, and then meet Wang Hao in the final.

The king who has dominated the 64kg class for six or seven years, and the new world champion, this is a battle between the older king and the youngest lion.

Will the new champions be able to overthrow Hernandez's dynasty, or will they go back to the throne?

Thinking of the final that is very likely to take place between Hernandez and Wang Hao, the audience at the scene is also full of blood and anticipation.

Bite!

As the bell rings, the fight between Hernandez and Nilia Fighter Chartere begins!

Wang Hao watched the match between the two intently under the ring, Nilia fighter Charter is ranked ninth in the International Boxing Federation 64kg class, and being able to reach the semifinals is already an extraordinary performance, Wang Hao watched the game carefully to see if Charter can cause problems for Hernandez.

At the beginning of the bout, Hernandez, who was wearing gray shorts, took a steady step and strode towards Charter, who also clenched his fists and stepped forward.

Boom!

Coming to the long distance, Charter first hit a jab, and Hernandez's reaction was very fast, he shook his body, dodged Chatter's jab, and at the same time moved with his feet, the pace was very fast, and he came to the front of Chat, and at the same time made continuous uppercuts, from all directions, up and down, left and right.

From the start of the bout, Hernandez showed what he does best, with close clinching, and Hernandez's quick attack, flat and uppercut, and small hooks, and a succession of hooks to Chart.

As a boxer who has been fighting in the 64kg class for several years, Charter also knows a lot about Hernandez, and knows that Hernandez's close combat is very powerful, so Chatter's game strategy is also to try not to let Hernandez get close to him.

Of course, the strategy is like this, but whether or not you can actually do it is another matter.

After being hit by a right flat hook from Hernandez, Chase stepped back to open up the distance, but Hernandez was quicker on his feet and immediately followed Chart's footsteps and continued to unleash melee strikes.

Soon, Chart was hit in the chin by a right uppercut from Hernandez and landed a heavy blow that was read by the referee.

However, Chatter's ability to resist strikes was also quite good, and after the referee's countdown, he immediately returned to the game and played with Hernandez.

Charter tried to play as long distance as possible with Hernandez, but the pace at his feet was not as fast as Hernandez, and the jab could not block the nimble Hernandez, so he was frequently close to Hernandez.

Toward the end of the first round, Charter was knocked down by a small right hook from Hernandez.

Immediately afterwards, Chat, who stood up, was hit by Hernandez with a straight punch in the backhand, and then was counted by the referee, and the referee counted the seconds three times in one round, and Charter directly lost the game.

In the second semi-final of the 64kg class, Hernandez took only three minutes to defeat Nilia fighter Chatter.

In this way, the final of the 64 kg class will be staged between Wang Hao and Hernandez, which is also the first encounter between the most powerful newcomer and the current king of the 64 kg class.
