Chapter 228: An Unexpected Invitation to Prepare for Battle
Spearhead training camp.
The temperature is around twenty-three degrees.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The outdoor breeze was blowing slowly, Wang Jin's right foot touched the ground, and his left leg hung a barbell plate to do "suspension support" exercises, and the sweat on his body dripped from time to time, wetting a small piece of the cushion.
- This movement is very difficult, it can effectively exercise endurance and balance, strengthen the "support leg", and amplify the kick power of the "attack leg", the effect is particularly obvious. The reason why Wang Jin was able to obtain the power of perverted blows is inseparable from this.
"Hey, look, I've never seen anything so outrageous!"
"That's right, he's still training in the offseason, he must be crazy!"
"I think, maybe it's because Wang Jin doesn't have a girlfriend?"
"Pretty much ......"
The guys passing by saw this scene and whispered one after another.
The difference between the East and the West will inevitably lead to differences in concepts, and it is difficult for foreigner fighters to understand someone's "weird behavior".
MMA's trip to China is scheduled for mid-August, and negotiations are in full swing. The first time he returned to his hometown to fight, Wang Jin of course wanted to show his compatriots the best side of himself, so he gave up his vacation to step up "sharpening his knife".
Instead of enjoying life in the offseason, head coach Lacavich was also speechless, and he ordered Wang Jin not to train for more than three hours a day, and he must stop every six days to prevent physical damage.
With physical trainer Andy home to accompany the child, wrestling coach Xing Tronqi on leave, and Rakavich refusing to hire a sparring partner for him, Wang Jin had to return to his previous training mode and rotate between several regular coaches in the camp.
In late May, KOTC finally sent a notice and confirmed his opponent!
- Mickey Garcia, a 28-year-old white Seattle veteran, 1.95 meters tall, 2.07 meters wingspan, 258 pounds, 23-7 professional record, and 176th in the world.
Directly from two hundred and forty to one hundred and seventy-six, to be honest, the organization attaches great importance to Wang Jin, and it is already very face-saving to be able to arrange an opponent at such a level! Wang Jin wants to hit the top 10 in the world as soon as possible, but you have to do it one by one according to the rules! If he didn't have the aura of a champion, it would take at least two or three years to reach the top 200.
Depend on!
After studying the video, Wang Jin came to a conclusion: He is a "second-rate boxer", and he is purely sent to death in front of his buddies!
However, one thing worth noting is that Garcia had faced Brandon Benn a few years ago before he was knocked out in two rounds, and his skill and fighting skills were quite good, which was by no means comparable to Robinson and Murray.
The continuous duel against the "weak chicken" made Wang feel very depressed, but as a cross-border pink newcomer, this is an inherent process that must be experienced, no matter how uncomfortable it is, he has to endure it, KOTC is not his own after all.
As soon as the news was posted on the official website, Lacavich immediately ordered Wang Jin to get out of the way and gave him a long vacation - the reason is very simple, continuous training is easy to damage the body, and let's talk about it when we adjust our state and loosen our strings.
"Hmph, the old man is so rude, wow, it's not that I stayed without paying for food......"
Wang Jin muttered and walked to the locker room to pack up his equipment, planning to go back to China for a walk.
"Hey!"
A black fighter excitedly ran in and yelled, "Man, quick! We have a guest visiting our camp, and I want to see you by name! ”
Wang Jin said slowly: "Who? I'm going back to my country, and I don't have any free time! ”
The black boxer squeezed his eyes and said, "Really not available? ”
Wang Jin said: "I'm really not available! ”
Black Humanity: "No. 5 in the world, can the famous 'blacksmith' Vasily make you change your mind?" ”
Wang Jin almost suspected that he had heard it wrong, and he was shocked: "Huh? Who? ”
The black man nodded his head: "I said it very clearly, man, the Ukrainian 'blacksmith' Vasily!" ”
it!
What is that "stuffy gourd" Vasily doing with his buddies? Since the last "three sentences talk about the world to death", everyone has never crossed paths at all?
Wang Jin was confused, threw away his backpack and walked to the public hall......
……
Whenever they met, Vasily seemed to have the same shape - a slightly bulging beer belly, ordinary clothes, and a gentle expression of harmlessness on his face.
Well?
Near the photo wall, Wang Jin quickly found this rare guest who came to the door unexpectedly.
Comrade Vasily did not come alone, he was accompanied by a beautiful blonde woman, who was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a few faint freckles on her face, and a shrewdness in her eyes that was diametrically opposed to that of Lao Wa.
"Hello!"
Wang Jin smiled and stretched out his palm at Vasily.
"Hello!"
Vassi was shy, held him and shook him gently, and then there was a following!
Belch......
The corners of Wang Jin's eyes twitched.
A few more words can tire you out? When looking for someone, you always have to talk about the purpose, huh?
The woman shook hands with Wang Jin generously and said with a smile: "Hello Wang Jin, I am Vasily's wife Nina, and I am also his boxing agent. Please forgive me, my husband is terrible at English and is not very good at communicating with others. ”
Broker? Couple? Well, the personalities are quite complementary!
Lao Wa, you can also look at other people, you can speak and know how to be polite, and the difference between husband and wife is also very big!
After the greetings, Wang Jin took them into the assistant's office and sat down, and then handed over two bottles of room temperature mountain spring water. Since entering the spearhead camp, Wang Jin has not taken a sip of cold water, no matter how hot the weather is, because head coach Lacavich emphasized that cold water can damage the body......
Nina said: "Knowing that your time is precious, I will directly explain my intentions." ”
Wang Jin said: "Please." ”
Well, it seems that his wife is not only an agent, but also a mouthpiece, and Comrade Wa is only responsible for "playing cool".
Nina stared at Wang Jin earnestly and said, "The KOTC schedule is irrevocable, the trip to China has been officially established, and it is an honor for our team to be able to fight alongside you, the Kickboxing World Champion." ”
Wang Jin grinned and said, "Thank you, I'm even more honored." ”
"You know, the 'villain' Kloti we ran into was very dangerous, he was even higher than Vasily and had excellent kickboxing skills......
- Clottie, twenty-nine, American superfighter, infamous scary character, currently ranked third in the world. He is 1.92 meters tall, has an arm span of 2.05 meters, weighs 242 pounds, has a professional record of 33 wins and 4 losses, and has set a total of 17 brilliant finishing records! The lethality is not under Benn and Vasily!
Clotti is also an "amphibious" fighter who started his career in kickboxing and switched to MMA after a 13-1 record. Due to his early crossover and amazing talent, Klotty's technique is extremely skillful, his wrestling style is beautiful, he is skillful in standing, and he has directly knocked down many opponents with a powerful right sweeping leg, which can be called a rare "all-round heavy artillery killer" in the boxing world.
Croti plays fiercely, his temper is equally hot, he was in and out of the "class room" when he was young, he was like entering a no-man's land, he drank water diligently, and it is said that he had beaten his wife a few years ago, so he was called a "villain", and his reputation was extremely bad.
Wang Jin said: "So what? ”
Nina's eyes flashed: "So, we intend to invite you to join our camp and prepare for the battle together!" ”
Well?! Please let me be a sparring partner? What a surprise!
Wang Jin frowned.
Nina quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong, no one qualifies a kickboxing World Champion as a sparring partner. We will treat you as the most honored guest, and the most sincere friend, training and working together, not a cold employment relationship. Of course, we'll also pay you $300,000 for training and take care of the day-to-day expenses of all members of your team! All you have to do is fight Vasily twice a week. ”
What fool would refuse to learn from the world's fifth-ranked and prestigious "blacksmith" and get money?
"Stuffy gourd" Vasily also opened his mouth rarely: "Wang Jin, I beg you!" ”
Wang Jin said with a solemn expression: "Why did you choose me?" ”
Nina said: "In terms of the entire KOTC range, only your legs are better than Clotti!" You are the only outstanding candidate...... The matchup with Clotty is about the chance to challenge the boxing champion, we have no way out, we have to win! We are willing to pay any price for this! ”
Wang Jin said: "Understood, where is your training camp?" ”
Nina's eyes were full of hope: "New York! The distance is very close. We have a personal friend who runs a gym complex with excellent facilities and safe food. ”
Wang Jin said happily: "Okay, I promise you!" ”
Vasily and his wife glanced at each other, moved in unison, and overjoyed!
"Thank you!"
