Chapter 274: Best Athletes and Preparing for the Olympics
The moment Wang Hao won, the scene also resounded with continuous applause for Wang Hao's wonderful performance, and many American viewers booed the American boxing team in disappointment.
For many American spectators at the scene, they came to watch the game to see the wonderful performance of American boxers, after all, the five levels of boxers in the competition are all first-class amateur boxers in the United States.
But the result of the match disappointed them, the smallest class 53 kg competition, and the heaviest weight class, although the American fighters won both, but the other three classes, from 64 kg to 70 kg, American fighters were swept by Chinese fighters, all of them were knocked out by KO or TKO.
The first two fighters only lasted two rounds, and the last 70kg boxer, George, made it to the third round, but was also finished by the Chinese fighter in the first half of the third round.
Moreover, to the amazement of all the spectators at the scene, three American fighters were finished by the same Chinese boxer, and he was Wang Hao of the Chinese national team in the 64kg category.
You must know that the three American boxers knocked down by Wang Hao are not general, but excellent boxers carefully selected by the National Boxing Association, among which Alex in the 64 kg class is a professional boxing champion challenger level boxer, and the other two boxers Johnson and George are also first-class boxers in the 67 kg and 70 kg amateur boxing classes in the United States, and the two boxers also have their own strengths, Johnson is fast, George is strong and has strong resistance to blows.
But these are useless, although the game has gone through twists and turns, and the three fighters have caused a lot of trouble to Wang Hao, but Wang Hao still won the three American fighters with his super technical reserves and excellent reaction speed and strength.
In the 64kg competition, Wang Hao relied on the left frame fighting technique to control Alex, and continued to punch hard, so that Alex finally gave up the game and won by TKO; In the 67-kilogram class, Wang Hao relied on heavy jab skills and out-of-the-box tactics to knock out Johnson in the second round; In the 70 kg competition, Wang Hao faced George, who was more than a dozen pounds heavier than himself and had thick skin and meat, and decisively showed his wrapping step technique, so that George could not find the north, and finally fell to the ground in the third round.
With three consecutive victories against three excellent American fighters, Wang Hao has indeed created a miracle.
"Win! Win! ”
"Wang Hao is amazing!"
"Wang Hao has created a miracle!"
The Chinese audience and Chinese table tennis players in the stands shouted excitedly when the on-site referee terminated the game and announced Wang Hao's victory.
In their opinion, Wang Hao's three victories today are too cool! It's so domineering! It's too much for Chinese boxing to have a long face!
Bian Fang, the head coach of the Chinese national boxing team, as well as Liu Yuan, Cheng Gang and other fighters, rushed to the ring as soon as the game ended and lifted Wang Hao high.
Bian Fang burst into tears with excitement, although this was not the Olympics or the World Championships, but it was an extraordinary victory.
When deciding to participate in the boxing match of the China-US Friendship Games, Bian Fang's goal for this boxing match was one win and four losses, that is, as long as he won one match, he would complete the task!
This victory is still under the premise that Wang Hao participates in the competition, so there is great hope.
After all, the United States is a boxing powerhouse, and every level of boxer is full of talent, and boxing has never been China's dominant sport.
However, I didn't expect the final result of the game to be relying on Wang Hao's three consecutive victories, and the Chinese boxing team won the boxing match of the Sino-US Friendship Games with a total score of 3 to 2.
When Xu Zhi in the 67 kg class and Sun Chengshan in the 70 kg class suddenly had a car accident and could not participate in the competition, Wang Hao took the initiative to invite Ying to participate in the remaining two competitions, although Bian Fang recognized Wang Hao's strength very much, but he did not think that Wang Hao could defeat the two American fighters of 67 kg and 70 kg in succession.
Bian Fang believes that Wang Hao can win a maximum of 67 kg competition, and the possibility of a 70 kg competition is very low, not that Bian Fang is not confident in Wang Hao's strength, but mainly because the weight gap has too much impact on boxing, and many low-weight boxers can't beat high-weight boxers at all.
However, Wang Hao once again proved that his super strength is far beyond everyone's understanding, not only won three matches, but also won all by KO, Bian Fang's current mood can only be described as overjoyed.
In this way, in this Sino-US Friendship Games, the Chinese team won the American team in both table tennis and boxing.
Among them, table tennis won the United States, which is reasonable, although the score of 5 to 0 still makes the American team feel ugly, but their expectations are not so high, so they can still accept it, but the Chinese boxing team won the American team 3-2, but it is equivalent to slapping the American boxing team twice in public.
The U.S. boxing team had no way of accepting such an outcome.
Several American boxers who lost the match were dejected and left the scene early amid the boos of the audience, and the leader of the American boxing team also left early as soon as the game ended.
The leader of the U.S. boxing team is also a very famous boxing coach in the United States and has a good reputation, and he now regrets very much accepting Dmitry's invitation to lead the team to participate in the boxing match of the Sino-American Friendship Games.
The leader of the U.S. boxing team originally thought that the Sino-U.S. boxing match should be a hand-to-hand victory for the U.S. boxing team, but he didn't expect the Chinese boxing team to have a boxer like Wang Hao.
Wang Hao's performance was so good that all the American boxers who played today were dull compared to Wang Hao.
The leader of the American boxing team is a senior coach, and he can accurately evaluate a fighter's ability, so he knows that although the three American boxers lost to Wang Hao, the result was ugly, but the loss was not unjust, because Wang Hao's strength is indeed too strong.
But he also knew that the audience at the scene would not pay for the loss of the American boxing team, most of them could not understand the profound technology contained in boxing, and in their opinion, the loss of the American boxing team to the Chinese boxing team was an unacceptable loss.
The leader of the U.S. boxing team knew that today's defeat would also damage his reputation, and thinking of this, he left the scene early in a low mood.
Dmime, an official of the National Boxing Association of the United States, hid his face with his hands at the end of the game, and was extremely depressed, all the American boxers who participated in the competition this time were chosen by him, and he was to blame for the loss of the game, and Dread even felt that he would be fired by the boss after the game.
There are only two sports in the China-US Friendship Games: table tennis and boxing, and there are only about 20 players in total, so the competition schedule is only two days, and after the boxing match of the day, the award ceremony of this year's Friendship Games was held.
The competition set up two trophies, one is the trophy of the table tennis competition, the other is the trophy of the boxing competition, and the two trophies are naturally won by the Chinese team, and the leader of the Chinese table tennis team received the trophy of the table tennis competition.
The trophy of the boxing match was supposed to be received by Bian Fang on behalf of the Chinese national boxing team, but Bian insisted that Wang Hao accept the award together, so Wang Hao took the stage to receive the trophy of the boxing match with Bian Fang.
The competition also set up the best athlete award, which was naturally awarded to Wang Hao, who represented the Chinese national boxing team in three levels and helped the Chinese boxing team win the boxing match of the Sino-US Friendship Games.
Before the game, everyone thought that the best athlete award would either belong to the best Chinese table tennis player or to the best American boxer, but they did not expect that in the end, it dramatically and indisputably belonged to the Chinese boxer.
The American host of the China-US Friendship Games also interviewed Wang Hao on the spot.
"Hello! Mr. Wang Hao! The American host wearing a white shirt and a black suit asked, "The Sino-US Friendship Games set up two sports this time, in addition to the traditional table tennis competition, there is also boxing, table tennis is China's dominant sport, and boxing is the strength of the United States, so before the game, our American boxing team is also determined to win the boxing match, but in the end, the Chinese boxing team relied on your outstanding performance to win the game, do you have anything to say?" “
Because of the loss of the U.S. boxing team, a small number of American spectators at the scene had already left the stadium as soon as the game ended, but all the Chinese spectators at the scene, as well as most of the American spectators, were still there.
The remaining audiences, whether they are Chinese audiences or American audiences, are still very interested in Wang Hao, and they also admire Wang Hao's achievements today, and they look intently at the stage, waiting for Wang Hao's speech.
Wang Hao picked up the microphone from the host and said to the audience: "Actually, the boxers who were supposed to participate in the 67 kg and 70 kg competitions today were not me, but the other two outstanding athletes of our Chinese national boxing team, Xu Zhi in the 67 kg class and Sun Chengshan in the 70 kg class. Unfortunately, they had a car accident on the way to the scene today, but fortunately, there was no major problem, but there was no way to participate in the race! “
"But this China-US Friendship Games will have these two levels of boxing matches, and the audience at the scene is also waiting to see these two levels of boxing matches, so I took the initiative to ask to participate in these two levels of boxing."
Wang Hao continued with a smile.
"Of course, it was also a big challenge for me, because the American fighters are very good and weigh a lot more than me! However, with the correct application of my competition strategy and good technique, I still won the 67kg and 70kg competitions, and I am very happy! Thank you to the enthusiastic audience! ”
The host also smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Wang Hao!" I wish you further and further in your boxing career and achieve brilliant results. “
When the awards were over and the scene was ready to disperse, a young national player of the Chinese table tennis team walked towards Wang Hao.
When Wang Hao saw the appearance of the young national player of the Chinese table tennis team who walked in front of him, he also smiled.
This young table tennis national player is none other than the legend of Chinese table tennis, Liu Guoliang.
At this time, Liu Guoliang was still very young, Wang Hao remembered that the 1996 Atlanta Olympics was the first time Liu Guoliang shined, and Liu Guoliang would win two gold medals in men's singles and men's doubles at the Atlanta Olympics, and would become the first brother of the Chinese table tennis team for a long time.
After retiring, Liu Guoliang also served as the head coach of the Chinese table tennis men's team, the head coach of the Chinese table tennis, the vice chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association and the chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association.
It turned out that Liu Guoliang saw Wang Hao's wonderful boxing match at the scene, and after Wang Hao was so young, heroes cherished heroes, and he also wanted to get to know each other.
And Wang Hao also liked Liu Guoliang very much in his previous life, and the two quickly exchanged enthusiastically offstage.
The China-US Friendship Games ended, and after a short stay in the United States, Wang Hao returned to China with the Chinese national boxing team.
On the one hand, he came to the United States in advance to adapt to the local environment, as well as jet lag, etc., to prepare for the upcoming Atlanta Olympic Games, and on the other hand, he competed with several outstanding American fighters on the same stage, which was also a good opportunity for Wang Hao to improve his experience.
In addition, Wang Hao's three victories in the Sino-US Friendship Games made some professionals in the American boxing industry know Wang Hao, and many American viewers who watched today's boxing match also knew Wang Hao, and Wang Hao began to have a little fame in the American boxing world, which is also good for Wang Hao's future development in the professional boxing world.
After returning to Beijing, Wang Hao immediately transferred to continue preparing for the Atlanta Olympics.
In the process of preparing for this fight, Wang Hao learned that the Chinese national boxing team also has an excellent boxer, who has also qualified for the Atlanta Olympics, his name is Jiang Tao, and he is a 91-kilogram boxer.
This made Wang Hao very happy, at least this trip to Atlanta in the United States and preparation for the war will not be too lonely.
In this Olympic Games, Wang Hao's biggest opponent in the 64kg class is naturally the Cuban boxer Hernandez, who is ranked No. 1 in the International Boxing Federation.
Hernandez's information, Wang Hao has long learned from Bian Fang and others, as the super king of the 64kg class in the amateur boxing world, Hernandez has dominated the 64kg class for at least five or six years, and has won two world championships and an Olympic champion.
Hernandez's current amateur record is an astonishing 205 wins in 207 fights, with a knockout rate of nearly 80 percent
Hernandez swept all of the top 20 fighters in the current FIBF 64kg class, with the exception of Wang Hao.
