Chapter 510: Why not?
In the octagonal cage, Dana Bai looked at Xiang Yingying excitedly, secretly admiring his vision, he gave Xiang Ying a lot of help and tolerance, but Xiang Yingying gave back more than he imagined.
And today, after Xiang Hero's victory over Jon Jones, Dana White put him on the same footing as Conor "Mouth Cannon" McGregor, becoming one of the top players on the UFC pyramid.
Xiang Yingying looked at Dana Bai who was holding the microphone, gave him a big hug, and patted Dana Bai on the back hard.
"Ahem! Cough! Stop shooting! Bai Dana, who was slapped by Xiang Ying's bear hug, said with a red face.
After the audience saw this scene on the big screen, they laughed, it turned out that the non-combat state Xiang Hero was so humorous and funny, and even a little naughty.
Breaking free from Xiang Yingying's embrace, Dana Bai punched Xiang Yingxing's chest as if retaliating before starting the formal interview.
"Hero! I signed you to the UFC two years ago, and your growth and achievements in those two years have been phenomenal. You've won eight fights so far, seven knockouts, one TKO, and one submission. It's been a year since you've won the middleweight title, and now you've beaten Jon Jones 'The Bone' to claim the light heavyweight title, becoming the first fighter in UFC history to win both the middleweight and light heavyweight titles. It only took you two years to achieve this result, did you think about it beforehand? Dana Bai asked excitedly.
"To be honest, I'm not too surprised. My current results are one game at a time, without a bit of moisture. So, the results and the glory I deserve now. Xiang Yingying said very confidently.
After hearing this, Bai Dana put on an expression that was really like this, he knew that Xiang Yingying would answer like this, so he was not surprised at all, and then asked: "This is the longest game you have played so far, can you talk about your feelings?" ”
"Indeed, it was the longest and toughest fight I've played so far, even surpassing the championship match against Robert Viteker. Jon Jones was more than I could have imagined, he was a blaster today, but I didn't like him and I didn't like this game too much because I preferred that kind of clean and pure game. Xiang Yingying said bluntly.
"Ugh! Anything can happen in a game, and now that you've won this game, it's proof that you're the best tonight. But we've also seen that Jon Jones is a very big threat to you in this game, and even almost finished the game early on two occasions. Dana Bai very subtly reminded Xiang Ying, now that he has already won, he hopes that he will not seize the third round.
Xiang Yingying glanced at Bai Dana deeply when he heard this, although he was unwilling, he still gave Bai Dana face, and said with a smile: "I don't need to say how powerful that 'bone' is, so I have made full preparations for this competition." But he was still stronger than I expected, he had better physical condition than me, his arm span was twenty centimeters longer than mine, and his turning elbow was a fatal threat to me. ”
"And he kicked the knee very badly, it hurt my left knee very much, and it really affected my movement speed. On top of that, his reaction speed and foot movements are the fastest I've ever seen. His wrestling skills and jiu-jitsu also made me suffer. So, when the news of this super fight came out, almost everyone didn't believe that I was going to be able to gnaw on this tough bone, but I did it today, and as I said before the fight, I knocked him out. ”
"That's right! We've all seen that Jon Jones is a very good mixed martial artist. He came close to stopping the bout early in the fourth round. What did you rely on to persevere in such a difficult situation? Dana White continued.
Xiang Yingying smiled bitterly when he heard this: "That's right, he did almost finish me off in the fourth round of Kimura Suo, but as long as I am conscious, I will never give up." Therefore, during the period of being suppressed by him, I had only one belief at that time, and that was persistence, persistence. As long as I'm still breathing, I'm never going to give up, I'm constantly rolling, I'm constantly adjusting my position. Luckily, I got rid of it. ”
"With so many supportive fans and even Chinese viewers coming from across the ocean to support you, is there anything you would like to say to them?" Dana Bai asked with a smile.
"Of course, I need to thank you for getting to where I am today, and I need to thank you fans who have been quietly supporting me. Without your uncomplaining support, I wouldn't be able to hold on to today, thank you! After Xiang Yingying finished speaking, he bowed four times to the four directions of the audience.
"Hero! Champion! ”
"Hero! We always have your back! ”
"Hero! We love you! ”
The atmosphere at the scene was once again warmed up in the gratitude of Xiang Hero. However, Xiang Yingying continued: "I also want to thank my master Qu Tiancheng and my senior sister Qu Zimo. I couldn't have persevered without her accompanying me and her massage every night. ”
"I would also like to thank Coach Roan, Coach Davis and Coach Harris for bringing me the most advanced and scientific training methods and allowing me to find a weapon to attack. Oh! My strength and conditioning coach, Mr. Borg, without him, I wouldn't have gained so much weight this time. He's the one who makes my body stronger and more adapted to this kind of high-intensity competition. ”
"Finally, I would like to thank all the colleagues of the Hero Battalion, without your silent support behind me, I would not be able to go where I am today. You've given me a solid rear so I can focus on training. ”
"Well, the last question, I believe, is also the one that the audience is most interested in. You're now the current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion, what's your next goal? Or what is the plan? ”
Xiang Yingying smiled confidently when he heard this, and said, "To be honest, I haven't thought about it that much, my head is still clouded now." But what I can tell you is that my heroes will not stop challenging difficulties. I might stop in the light heavyweight division for a moment, but when I don't feel like there's any momentum to move forward, I'll go for something more difficult. ”
"Oh!" Xiang Yingying's words made Bai Dana's eyes light up, and he seemed to hear and wanted to hear the answer. So Dana Bai couldn't wait to ask: "Can I understand, you still have plans to gain weight and upgrade?" ”
"Why not?" Xiang Yingying leaned his head close to the camera and gave an answer that excited fans around the world.
