Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Gamble with Tabor
The news that Lin Ye was going to start a WBO/IBF super featherweight unification fight with Baro Yi in a month immediately attracted the attention of the media. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
For the news media, Lin Ye, a Chinese teenager, won the Golden Glove League championship within a month of coming to the United States. After that, he defeated Guzmán and became the youngest boxing champion in history, all of which made the media talk about it. Now, shortly after Lin Ye got the WBO belt, he is going to start a unified battle with Barlow, and this news has been reported by many news media sports pages.
When Guzmán got the news, he was very dissatisfied. Lin Ye refused to fight him in World War II, leaving Guzmán hopeless for revenge in a short period of time. It's only been a few days now, and it's time to fight a united battle with Barlow. In his opinion, Lin Ye's strength is not as good as Baroyi, and to fight a united battle is to give Baroyi a gold belt. When he fights Lin Ye for revenge again, even if he succeeds in revenge, he will not be able to get back the gold belt he lost, which undoubtedly makes Guzmán very unhappy.
And the vast majority of the media are not optimistic about Lin Ye and Baroyi's united battle. The odds offered by the gambling company to Lin Ye this time are still inclined to Lin Ye to lose. Only this time the odds have been adjusted to 4 to 1.
Sports Illustrated wrote an analysis report that speculated on the battle between Lin Ye and Barlow. This time, the author of the report is still Taber, who looked down on Lin Ye when he won the Golden Glove League last time, and this time is no exception.
Tabor wrote: "I don't think there is much suspense about the battle between Lin Ye and Barlow I. Barlow took the victory with ease, defeating Lin Ye. ”
From a technical and tactical point of view, the 35-year-old Barlow has 37 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses and 19KOs in 42 games, with rich experience and comprehensive skills. In last year's bout against Fana, Barlow showed his skill and fitness to beat his opponent on points in 12 rounds. And Lin, with all due respect, can't get a foothold in professional boxing at all with his strength. Let's take a look at the characteristics of Lin Ye, the technique is rough, the footwork is extremely poor, and the speed is slow. With such strength, he doesn't deserve the belt at all. ”
"Let's take a look at Lin's record in professional boxing, which is 8 wins and 1 KO. But what about these 8 games, except for the one with Guzman, the other 7? Lin's first fight was against a player named Masinocchi. Although this Masinochi has a boxing license, he is a truck driver by profession. The professional record is a measly 6-5-1 draw, without even a win. During the match with Lin Ye, the truck driver had not been in the boxing gym for half a year. But just like that, the truck driver still had a fierce battle with Lin Ye. Lin Ye couldn't even win easily with such a fighter whose strength was as weak as ordinary people, which shows his straightforward strength. In the next 5 games, the opponents were also underdogs with a defeat rate far exceeding the win rate. And Lin's coach, Jenon, used to be a professional boxer, an out-and-out loser, with a professional record of 8 wins and 15 losses. There is no one to learn boxing at all in the gym that runs it, and it is not surprising that such a coach has taught a fighter like Lin Ye. ”
"And in the game with the Englishman Arthur, it could have made this Chinese man his true form. It's a pity that Arthur got off the ring soon after he got out of the ring because of physical discomfort, allowing the Chinese to pick up a victory. ”
In the battle with Guzmán, the Chinese showed his only strength, which was the resistance to attack as thick as a city wall. I think the title of rubber man suits him well. Guzmán completely crushed Lin Ye in all twelve rounds, only later, the attack was too fierce and caused his physical strength to be disjointed, allowing the Chinese to find an opportunity. However, I am sure that this is the only gold belt that this Chinese man can get in his life. ”
"In a month's fight, I can be very sure that Lin Ye will lose to Baro Yi, and the gold belt that Lin obtained by luck and speculation will also be handed over to Baro Yi. Even if Barlow doesn't knock him out, he can be completely suppressed within the twelve pluses. I don't think Guzmán needs to dwell on the World War with Lin anymore, because Lin is a fighter who is as weak as a rookie in the ring, and he can only win this once by speculation and luck. ”
"I think that after the war with Barlow, the Chinese should leave the United States and go back to their country. There is no place for him in this professional boxing world, and he does not deserve to gain a foothold in this ring. ”
When Lin Ye took the "Sports Illustrated" and looked at this report, he was very unhappy. This Tabor, who sang about himself in "Sports Illustrated" last time, ridiculed himself again this time. It's okay to say that he is weak, but he also brought Jenon with him, and he actually said that Jenon was a loser, which made Lin Ye unbearable.
So Lin Ye said to the media: "There is a person named Tabor, who firmly believes that I will lose, even if you are so sure that I will lose, then do you dare to go to the bookmaker to buy Barlow to win?" We can make a bet that if I lose, then I'll quit boxing forever. If he loses, then ask him to leave his job voluntarily and stop publishing nonsense reports. ”
Lin Ye's words immediately aroused the interest of the media.
"Lin was dissatisfied with Tabor's report, and he quit boxing after losing the bet"
"Lin bets on Tabor, angered by Tabor's report"
"Tabor responded, saying that he accepted Lin's bet, and said that Lin would definitely lose"
Tabor later publicly responded in the newspaper: Lin Ye will definitely lose in his eyes, it is impossible to win, and he will make money if he goes to the bookmaker to buy Lin Ye and loses. Tabor even took out his house, car and other property for mortgages, and all went to the bookmaker to buy Lin Ye Loss. And filmed this scene and posted it to the media, with a paragraph attached, I will be able to wait until my assets have quadrupled, and then I will personally go to see Lin Ye revoke his boxing license and quit boxing.
