Chapter 539: Heroic Confidence (I)

The next day, as soon as Xiang Yingying got up, Tang Mu ran in and said with a depressed face: "Look out the window!" ”

Xiang Yingxing was stunned for a moment, ran to the window to take a look, and was suddenly startled, it turned out that the door of the hotel was full of people, and it was black.

"What's the situation?" Xiang Hero asked in surprise.

"You're still pretending to be stupid, you didn't provoke this, last night there was such a big news, can there not be many people?" Tang Mu smiled bitterly.

"Ugh! These reporters are too enthusiastic! Xiang Yingying laughed.

At this time, Qu Zimo, Xibei, Xiang Wenjun and Wang Lulu also ran in. Xibeier pretended to be angry and said, "We were going to go out to have fun, but now it's okay, we can't get out." But from the grinning face on her face, there was no sign of anger.

"Great! Then go out and go back to the room to continue sleeping. After Xiang Yingying finished speaking, he threw himself on the soft big bed, he was worried about what reason he could not go shopping with Qu Zimo and them, in Xiang Yingying's mind, shopping with women was a more tiring thing than training.

Seeing this, Xibeier also ran to the bed to tickle Xiang Hero, but was soon counterattacked by Xiang Hero, scratching and trembling, shouting for Qu Zimo and Wang Lulu to help.

As a result, Xiang Da Hero, who was invincible all over the world, was ravaged by three women, and was forced to discuss it with Dana Bai, and decided to hold a press conference before leaving Cleveland.

Last night, Dana Bai almost didn't sleep all night, not because he didn't want to sleep, but the phone was never disconnected, and the bigwigs kept calling him, with great intentions to promote this cross-border super war.

Moreover, Eddie Hearn and Frank Smith, founding members of Matchroom Sport, also called Dana White and expressed their intention to cooperate on the phone. However, it is by no means easy to facilitate such a game, and there are many links involved, especially in the distribution of benefits, which requires multiple rounds of negotiations.

Eddie Hearn and Frank Smith of Matchroom Sport are partners in Anthony Joshua, and the duo is responsible for running Joshua's opponents and actually determines his income, as Joshua gets his fair share of the appearance fee whether he wins or loses. Therefore, in the eyes of businessmen, any competition can be facilitated, but the question of return on investment needs to be carefully considered.

However, the two of them also told Dana White that Anthony Joshua's side would not respond immediately and that they needed to wait for the most opportune moment. However, Dana White can build momentum as much as he wants.

And what is the most opportune time?

Of course, when all eyes are on the yet-to-be-finalized event.

Three days later, the press conference took place as scheduled. The number of reporters present at this press conference was no less than that of the super battle three days ago, if not more.

Looking at the reporters in the audience, Xiang Yingying sitting on the rostrum was very calm, he knew that he would face all kinds of strange and even difficult problems later, and he was ready for this.

Dana White is very excited today, and he is even more excited than Xiang Hero, because the development of the UFC, which is in a bottleneck, needs a bigger gimmick too much. Although he didn't think that Xiang Ying would be able to defeat Joshua, Xiang Ying would not lose too ugly. Yes, as long as it is not too ugly to lose, Dana White is satisfied.

The first question was asked by Xiang Yingying's "old friend" ESPN reporter James, who took the microphone and asked Xiang Yingying directly: "Hey! Hero! I'm ESPN reporter James, and first of all, congratulations on making UFC history! ”

"Thank you!" Xiang Yingying was a little puzzled, how did this guy James seem to be a different person.

"I was there yesterday and I watched the footage again in the evening, but I think it's hard to pose any threat to Joshua with the skill you showed in this fight. Do you also want to emulate Connor and Mayweather in a 'money' battle? James bites the word money hard.

Dana Bai's face changed slightly when he heard this, he frowned and glanced at James, a little anxious in his heart. The last time Connor and Mayweather had a billion-dollar money war, they had been attacked in this direction for a long time, so this issue is indeed a bit sensitive.

After despising James's sinister intentions in his heart, Xiang Yingying replied with a smile: "No one hates a lot of money. But I didn't really think about it that much, I just wanted to see where my limits were. As for the question of what you think my boxing skills are very difficult to pose to Joshua, what I want to tell you is that Wei is not a threat that you can see. If someone can analyze something technical after watching it once or twice, then what else do those coaches do? ”

Xiang Yingying's sharp answer made the press gallery in the audience commotion, and they talked in a low voice. Some think that Xiang Hero's gunpowder smell is too strong, and some are gloating.

Seeing this, the host immediately ordered a beautiful reporter, and this reporter also interviewed Xiang Hero.

"Hey! Hero! Hello! Sports Illustrated reporter Lola. Laura's soft voice instantly silenced the noisy scene.

"Hey! Belle! Long time no see! As soon as Xiang Yingying saw that it was an acquaintance, he said hello with a big grin.

This somewhat flirtatious greeting made the atmosphere a little more relaxed, and the tension caused by James's question disappeared completely, replaced by laughter.

This Western-style joke also made Laura smile and asked indifferently, "When did you challenge Joshua's idea?" Did Glory Heavyweight Champion Verhoeven come to help with the training this time had anything to do with the idea? ”

Laura's question immediately aroused the interest of the reporters in the audience, and they all sat up straight, ready to listen carefully to Xiang Yingying's answer.

Actually, this idea has been around for a long time. To put it bluntly, it was after I successfully defended my fifth middleweight title. Xiang Yingying replied.

"Why at that time?" Laura continued.

"Because at that time, I suddenly found myself without motivation to move forward, without passion." Xiang Yingying shrugged his shoulders and put on a depressed look.

"Aren't the world-class masters of the heavyweight division enough for you to challenge?" The host didn't stop Lola from continuing to ask.

Seeing this, other reporters had to sigh, but they were still popular with beautiful women.

Xiang Yingying smiled when he heard this, glanced at Bai Dana and said directly: "To be honest, after I defeated Miocchi with only my fists, I was even more sure that my decision at that time was not wrong. With my current skill set, there aren't many people in the Octagon who can pose a threat to me. ”
