Chapter 394: "Five Stars" Robert Vitekel

After seeing everyone arrive, Mitte's excited expression also became serious, and after nodding to Xiang Yingxing, he went straight to the point: "Today's technical analysis meeting is mainly to discuss the hero's next opponent 'Robert Viteker'"

"I will first give you a basic introduction to Robert Vitekel, Robert Vitekel, born on December 20, 1990, is only 28 years old this year, 1.83 meters tall, 1.86 meters of arm span, should be able to weigh about 90 kilograms during the war, and currently has a record of 20 wins and 4 losses, including 10 knockouts and 5 submission wins"

He was born in New Zealand and later moved to Melbourne. He began learning karate with his younger brother at the age of 6 with his father until he became a black belt in karate at the age of fourteen. He then joined the Hapkido gym to train under Henry Perez. Soon, Perez's gym turned into an MMA training gym. With no other options, Robert began training in MMA, but he quickly became drawn to the sport and eventually became a professional MMA athlete. ”

"Robert Vitekel is still young, but he already has a lot of experience in the game. He's the welterweight winner of "The Ultimate Fighter" Australia vs. Great Britain, but he didn't have a great record after entering the UFC, losing two straight fights. He then left his gym in Canada to return to his native Australia to train and move up from welterweight to middleweight. Having no longer had to expend a lot of energy to lose weight, Vitekel has also improved dramatically and has performed even better. ”

The 28-year-old Aussie is riding a staggering nine-game winning streak over the past four years or so. He is often able to beat some strong opponents without being favored. He scored a first-round victory with a high kick knockout against another multi-bout winning slammer, Drake Bernson, in his hometown. ”

And in his April 2017 UFC On FOX 24 bout with Ronaldo "The Crocodile" Sousa, Vitekel shocked the world once again, finishing what is considered the most dangerous figure in the middleweight division in the second round, and the official ranking quickly jumped to No. 3. ”

With that streak on his way, he unbelievably battled Yul "God Warrior" Romero, one of the UFC's top middleweight contenders, for five rounds before defeating Romero by unanimous decision of 3 48-47 points to claim the interim UFC middleweight title. In the end, he won the middleweight title in the third round by knocking out Bisping in the third round at UFC 234. He became the first UFC champion in Australian history and became a national hero of Australia. ”

"It's fair to say that Robert Vitekel is the toughest opponent the hero has faced since he joined the UFC. Not only does he have the physical fitness to be a hero, but he also has the striking skills to be a hero, and the hero only has a certain advantage in height and reach, but Robert Vitekel has a lot more MMA experience than the hero. ”

When Mitte said this, he clearly felt that the atmosphere in the conference room was a little solemn, and everyone seemed to be shocked by the strength of Robert Vitekel.

After all, Robert Vitekel has come all the way, especially the opponents in the last few games, which can be described as full of gold, compared to the opponents of the heroes in these games.

His victory over Yul Romero, who was ranked No. 2 in the world at the time, was enough for no fighter to beat him lightly.

With the introduction of Xiaote, everyone focused on Xiang Yingxing. Seeing this, Xiang Yingying smiled easily and said, "What are you all looking at me for?" Yes, this guy is really good, but my hero is not bad either! As for who is powerful, everyone will naturally know when the game is over, don't be so nervous! ”

Tang Mu also smiled when he heard this: "We can't be nervous!" Do you know what the media has to say about your championship challenge these days? ”

Xiang Yingying shook his head blankly, he never watched the news from the outside world during this time, nor did he go online, except for training.

"Some media predict that the UFC's middleweight title in the next two years will be between you and Robert Vitekel. That said, in the last two years, the UFC's middleweight division has been you and Robert Vitekel's world. Tang Mu said with a smile.

"Humph! I'm not interested in staying in this division for two years, and when I'm going to finish the guy I'm trying to make, I'm going to gain weight, and my goal is to get to the heavyweight division eventually. When Xiang Yingying said this, he subconsciously looked at Qu Zimo, licked his face and said, "I just hope that if I become a fat paper of more than 100 kilograms, my senior sister will not dislike me." ”

After Xiang Yingying finished speaking, he also made a strange appearance at Qu Zimo.

Seeing this, Qu Zimo glared at him, and also joked: "That maybe!" ”

Qu Tiancheng laughed when he saw the two of them joking, since the relationship between Xiang Yingying and Qu Zimo has improved by leaps and bounds, his mood has also improved a lot, and he smiles every day.

The joke between the two just now not only amused Qu Tiancheng, but also made the atmosphere in the conference room a lot easier.

Seeing this, director Mai Zi hurriedly asked, "Hero! You say you still want to gain weight and play in the big class? ”

"Yes! Only, of course, when I don't feel threatened and challenged in the middleweight division. Xiang Yingying said in a dragging voice.

Maizi was speechless, he had no way to express his current mood. Just now Mitte was still talking about how strong this opponent is, and Xiang Ying directly thought about gaining weight after dominating the middleweight division.

In other words, Xiang Yingying felt that he had won this championship challenge.

After answering Maizi's question, Xiang Yingying said to Mitte: "Coach Mitte! Didn't you prepare for a week? Wouldn't it be just a one-time introduction to this guy's record and be done? ”

"Of course not, then we're going to watch a game between him and Juul Romero, and what I'm going to analyse today is in the normal game." After Mitte finished speaking, he projected the picture of the normal game on the projector.

It was a five-round contest in which Romero and Robert Vitekel tested each other in the first round, and the scene was calm and lethargic.

From the second round, though, Romero took the initiative and took the lead, but several takedown attempts were brilliantly defused by Robert Viteker.

From the third round onwards, the 40-year-old Romero's physical strength dropped dramatically, and the situation began to develop in Robert Viteker's favor, completely suppressing Romero in terms of effective strikes and takedowns.

In the last two rounds, Romero's stamina dropped even more, while Roberto Vitekel's dominance continued to expand. After five rounds, Robert Vitekel won the bout with a unanimous decision of 3 points of 48-47 and became the interim UFC middleweight champion.
