Chapter 481: One More Month
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed, and there is still more than a month left before the super war.
In November, Coconut Creek still has a pleasant climate, and the temperature is also maintained at about 20 degrees, which is very suitable for training. Since the competition with Romero, in the past month or so, Xiang Yingxing has worked hard, and even Qu Zimo, who came from Beijing to train with him, has not had much time to deal with. Every day, in addition to training, it is training, and after training, I fall asleep in bed in seconds.
Qu Zimo was extremely distressed when she saw this, she had seen a lot of training for Xiang Yingxing, but it was the first time she had seen it so hard like this time.
Laborious! It's really hard.
In addition to training speed and explosiveness according to the requirements of the physical trainer Borg, the hero also has to eat those unpalatable foods. However, the hard work did come with significant physical changes.
Xiang Hero's weight has increased, and his training weight has now reached 103 kilograms, which is 9 kilograms heavier than the original 94 kilograms, but his body has not increased significantly. Although the muscle lines are still relatively obvious, the density and strength of the muscles are not the same as before.
The current Xiang Hero went to that station, especially when he made an attack posture, the whole person was like a beast, and his whole body was full of momentum and moving.
Xiang Hero is very satisfied with his current state, although his control of the body is not very smooth, but the changed body has significantly improved both in speed and explosiveness. Even with his own reflexes has been strengthened.
In fact, Xiang Hero's reflexes have always been good, but he was too bulky, and although his brain reacted, his body was still half a beat slower, so that in the original game, he was always beaten more than his opponent.
But now, he's seen a noticeable improvement in his battles with a few sparring partners, and with the increased frequency of his attacks and the lack of lethality, he can't sustain them for a round or two. Xiang Hero believes that with his current competitive state and strength, if he fights Romero, he is confident that he can settle the battle in less than two rounds.
Speaking of Romero, since he competed with Xiang Ying, he also understood that even if Xiang Hero did not gain weight and upgrade, it would be difficult for him to defeat Xiang Hero, but after Xiang Hero gained weight and upgraded, his possibility of winning the championship increased, so he began to train again, hoping to complete the championship dream in the final stage of his career.
During Xiang Hero's full-time training, the media was still buzzing about his super-battle with Jon Jones. Many celebrity experts and veteran commentators have publicly expressed their opinions, and it is generally believed that with the strength that Xiang Hero is showing now, it will be difficult to compete with Jon Jones, and it is very likely that he will get the first defeat of his career.
At the same time, some senior coaches in major MMA gyms and training camps also expressed their opinions, and they also believed that Yixiang's current strength is still a certain gap compared to Jon Jones, and it is unlikely that he will win.
Contrary to the above, the fighters at the top of the UFC's light heavyweight rankings instead think that Xiang Hero has a chance to win, and of course, it may just be their attempt to block Jon Jones.
Daniel "DC" Cormier reacted the most positively, saying that Xiang Hero would crush Jon Jones' head with his trademark high kick, and the super fight would definitely end with Jon Jones being knocked out by Xiang Hero.
More than a month ago, when "DC" Daniel Cormille won this super fight, his jaw dropped, he knew that Xiang Hero would gain weight and upgrade sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
In fact, he didn't think that Xiang Ying could defeat Jon Jones, nor did he like Xiang Ying, but he hated Jon Jones even more, so he thought that Jon Jones would be knocked out, not so much that this was his prediction, but that it was a curse.
Alexander Gustafson, who is known as "Rui Shuai" by Chinese fans and officially nicknamed "The Bite", believes that Xiang Yingying is no match for Jon Jones. His exact words were: "I don't mean to be disrespectful to Xiang Hero, as a middleweight champion, this has proven his quality. He's a very good athlete, a hard guy, a hard worker, but I still want to tell him that this is light heavyweight, not middleweight. ”
"So, this game hero might cause some problems for Jon Jones, but I still think Jon Jones will win in the end. That's what I want to see because I really want to play Jon Jones again and I want to win the title. ”
Like the buzzing Western media, China's sports media has not stopped, not only with many so-called expert coaches offering advice to Xiang Ying, but also many veteran fans who have also participated. One of the fans' analysis has been widely circulated online.
The fan cleverly compared Gustafson to Jon Jones, and he believes that Xiang is of the same size and skill as Gustafson. Of course, Gustafson's technique is a little more comprehensive, while Xiang Hero's striking technique is a little more powerful.
He believes that when he watched Rui Shuai's previous games, he really didn't think he could play five rounds under the bones, but the "accident" happened. This is all due to Gustafson's strength and flexibility.
The whole weight is heavy, and I really can't find someone Jon Jones can't let go. But Gustafson did. This is something that Xiang Hero must learn, as long as he makes sure that Jon Jones does not fall, he has a good chance of winning this game.
The fan believes that there are many who think Jon Jones is the strongest on the feet, but his punches are not very bright, except for reflexive elbows and knee kicks. The reason why he gives people the feeling of being strong on the feet is completely physical, and his long hands and feet can effectively interfere with the opponent's strikes, so that the opponent has no way to start.
He believes that only the ground is where Jon Jones can hit his opponent the hardest. But Gustafson didn't give him a chance to get to the ground, forcing Jon Jones to finish the fight on the feet, but against an opponent who was about the same size and strength, and just as flexible, Jon Jones had no better way to do it, and could only stalemate with his opponent until the end of the match.
Therefore, he thinks that as long as Xiang Hero can improve his movement speed and reaction speed, he has a good chance of defeating Jon Jones.
As soon as this point of view came out, it was immediately agreed by many fans, and some even went out of their way to watch the match between Gustafson and Jon Jones.
Indeed, I really can't see any good way for the two to win in the whole game, they are completely holding each other, you have nothing to do with me, and I have nothing to do with you.
