When I got home in the evening, I found the old man sitting in a rocking chair in the middle of the courtyard, leisurely listening to the radio, which was playing Peking Opera.

"Grandpa, the yard is heavy with dew, why did you come out alone?" During this time, the old man was in better health and was able to walk a few steps with a stick.

Sun Yitang turned off the radio and said, "You have been practicing boxing in the boxing gym for a long time, how are you practicing?" ”

"It's okay, there are no outstanding masters in the gym, but after fighting against people for a while today, I gained a lot." Wang Ben nodded.

"Have you had dinner?"

"Eat."

"Okay, for the next two hours, you can practice the boxing techniques I taught you." Sun Yitang nodded and said calmly.

"Ah, grandpa, I'm tired."

"Do you practice or not?"

"Practice, of course practice, grandpa's words, how dare I not listen." Wang Ben said depressedly.

"Do you remember the basic tips of Bagua Dragon Walking?"

"Of course I do."

"Show me the practice, but don't use the boxing method, try the boxing you practiced during this time."

Wang Ben didn't dare to be perfunctory, his feet were slightly staggered, his heels stood on tiptoe, and his hands began to perform the Bagua Dragon Step according to the style of boxing.

Bagua Youlong Step, in Chinese martial arts, is a kind of footwork with very high actual combat ability.

Between walking, one leg is straightened, the other leg is slightly bent, the upper body is not moved vertically, the chest is not straight, the head is not raised, the lower jaw is slightly closed, the buttocks are slightly tilted back, and the anus is tightened.

The biggest feature of Bagua Youlongbu is that it is extremely fast, retreating and advancing, and moving freely. And the footwork is not large, it is easy to be overlooked, the center of gravity of the body is low, the heel is off the ground, and you can walk freely even if the ground is slippery.

When fighting with others, it is centered on the other party and attacks around the circle, even if you can't beat the opponent for a while, you can make the opponent turn in a circle and be tired to deal with it.

This is not only the basis of the Bagua boxing method, but also can enhance the strength and flexibility of the footsteps, form a momentum that does not fall, and can also exercise waist strength, which is called collapse.

Of course, it is not so simple to practice the collapse of the strength, it is far from enough to just practice the Bagua boxing method. It is between marches, like a dragon entering the sea, agile and fast.

In Wang Ben's memory, his grandfather had only taught him the basic skills of gossip dragon steps before, and never mentioned the practice of dragon steps.

You Longbu exerts force on his waist, his feet seem to grasp the ground, and he walks like a cunning rabbit.

However, Wang Ben has always liked to practice footwork, what is there to practice footwork? If you have this spare time, you might as well practice breakdancing steps, or the space dance steps that are popular all over the world.

However, the old man sat on the side and watched, he didn't dare to be lazy, he could only practice honestly, and in the end, he really felt a little bored, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Grandpa, what's the use of this footwork?" I can't hit anyone, and my feet are very tired. ”

"It's a good thing that you don't practice at home, and you will feel tired, and when you understand that it is useful, it will be too late to practice." Sun Yitang said indifferently.

In the following time, Wang Ben could only bury his head in hard practice, and in the end, his feet were like being filled with lead, and he was sore and weak.

The next day, Wang Ben woke up in the morning and found that the muscles in his legs were extremely heavy, but after running a lap, he tried to practice the method of spitting, and the soreness was reduced a little.

It took three days for the heavy soreness to disappear, and then I felt that my steps were stronger than before, and my body was much more stable when I was standing.

There was no opponent in the boxing gym's actual combat training, and Li Xiaobing accompanied Wang Ben to practice for two days, and he refused to fight him again.

Just kidding, this is a fist-to-flesh actual battle, even if he is wearing protective gear, it still hurts to hit his body, and Wang Ben is becoming more and more flexible, it is too difficult to hit him.

I don't know if the old man's guidance has made him improve a lot, or other reasons, in the past few days, the power of Wang Ben's fist has become bigger and bigger, and the speed is much faster than before, and his attention in the ring is very concentrated, Li Xiaobing feels that fighting with him is simply looking for abuse.

Yuan Zhengtu has not been idle in the past two days, and has been accompanying Wang Ben to practice boxing, pointing out his shortcomings from time to time.

Seeing that the South China Boxing Championship was about to be held in two days, Yuan Zhengtu couldn't help frowning deeply when he looked at Wang Ben's attacking boxing.

"Wang Ben, come over here." After thinking for a moment, Yuan Zhengtu shouted at Wang Ben, who was fighting in the ring.

Wang Ben stopped, walked over, took a sip of water and said, "Coach Yuan, you call me?" ”

"Yes, did you feel anything when you were sparring in the ring?" Yuan Zhengtu asked.

"It's okay, it feels pretty good, but now these guys don't fight against me, I can't help it, I can only practice with them." Wang Ben said with a smile.

"You feel good, it's because you haven't met a fighter with enough punches, and with your practice, any lightweight fighter in the American boxing world can beat you, let alone a boxing champion." Yuan Zhengtu said solemnly.

"Ah...... it can't be that bad, right?" During this period of boxing, Wang Ben's self-confidence became more and more full, and he was suddenly a little surprised to hear the coach say this.

"Boxers are fighting in the ring, not acting, don't you notice that your moves are getting more and more fancy? In order to pursue the perfection of the action, in order to show the chic of the dodge, you will waste a lot of physical strength if you make too many moves, if you meet an evenly matched opponent, how long can you last? Just like you just now, you can obviously slide on the ground, but in order to look good, the center of your feet beat off the ground, not only the center of gravity rises and falls, but the speed will also slow down, yes, the strength of the students in the gym is not high, resulting in you feel that your strength cannot be played, but if you practice like this, it will be very difficult to change. Coach Yuan cautioned.

Wang Ben wiped a cold sweat, indeed, during his training, many movements were a little redundant, just to pursue good looks.

"And, if you want to be a boxing champion, you have to have your own style, and if you want to find your own style, you have to understand your own characteristics." Yuan Zhengtu said.

"Style? What do you mean by ......? Wang Ben didn't understand.

"Boxing is a passionate sport, and its rules have been changed from 15 rounds to 12 rounds since 1982, so there are a few common ways to win a 12-round fight in a professional boxing match."

"What's the way to play?"

"The first type, the heavy artillery type, is a kind of fighter who throws fierce punches, often defeats his opponent in the shortest time, and has a high knockout rate, but the front attack is too strong, and if the fight is in the back, it is likely to lose the victory due to physical strength. The second type, the perseverance type, has super endurance and is very prominent in defense, which is called the panacea of boxing, and often makes the boxing match win with physical strength to the end. The third type, both offensive and defensive, neither is outstanding, but not weak, and winning in the ring depends on the opponent's performance. The fourth type, the intelligent type, has excellent skills, and judges the offensive and defensive strategies according to the opponent, which is also called the consciousness type. ”
