The news that Wang Lei knocked out Julian Jackson in three rounds and became the IBF super welterweight champion made headlines the next day. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

While these media were surprised by Wang Lei's ferocity, they predicted the outcome of Wang Lei's next match against WBA super welterweight champion Mike McCollum.

Most of the media is largely optimistic about Wang's victory, with the San Francisco Chronicle, which is firmly on Wang's side, asserting that Wang can still knock out Mike McCollum in three rounds, no more than five rounds. He also said that Wang Lei is already the best heavy gunman in the pan-middleweight division, even compared to Marvin Hagler and Thomas Hearns, unless Robert Duran accepts Wang Lei's challenge, Wang Lei's knockout record will continue and cannot be broken.

Of course, some people praise it and some people say the opposite, and Ben Whyson of the New York Times published an article refuting the prediction of the "Ji Jinshan Chronicle", arguing that Wang Lei is not Mike McCollum's opponent.

Ben Waskson's reasoning is that Mike McCollum fought Julian Jackson last year, when it took him just two rounds to knock out Julian Jackson, one less than Wang Lei.

It can be seen that Mike McCollum's strength is stronger than Wang Lei!

Ben Whyson's theory may sound plausible, but even a non-boxing fan wouldn't take it seriously.

Boxing matches are not so simple to judge who is stronger than whom, if this is the case, Wang Lei and McCollum do not need to fight, just judge McCollum to win.

In fact, in boxing matches, there are many examples of A beating B, B beating C, and C beating A.

Not to mention that a fighter's condition can be affected by off-court factors such as injury, age, and mood, there are many examples of a fighter who is in great shape and is unexpectedly defeated by a weak fighter.

It is precisely because of the uncertainty of boxing matches that bookmakers are thriving.

If the outcome of a fight could be asserted according to Ben Whistleson's theory, the boxing-focused bookmaker would have closed its doors long ago.

Wang Lei's boxing championship with Mike McCollum was scheduled for May 11 in Las Vegas, a casino city after negotiations between the agents of both parties.

After Wang Lei became a well-known boxing champion in the United States, his fights were no longer one in a month or two, but three months.

Play up to four games a year!

The bookmaker offered odds early on for the match between Wang Lei and McCollum.

After careful analysis by boxing experts at the bookmaker's house, they are basically optimistic that Wang Lei will defeat Mike McCollum.

Among them, Wang Lei is the most expensive to beat McCollum by KO or TKO (technical knockout), as high as 1-1.6, while McCollum is 1-4.2, and after 12 rounds between the two sides, Wang Lei's odds of 1-5.5 are still higher than McCollum's 1-7. As for the odds of a draw between the two sides over 12 rounds, it is 14 to 1.

The reason why he is still optimistic about Wang Lei after winning the 12 rounds is because Wang Lei showed that he is not inferior to "Jab Master" Leonard in the fight against Julian Jackson, and he is still balanced left and right.

Coupled with Wang Lei's super quick reflexes and defensive skills that he has shown many times, grabbing points will basically not be weaker than any boxing champion.

As for Wang Lei's lack of physical strength, it was already crushed in the match against Wilfried Benitez.

Almost all boxing experts have concluded that Wang Lei's physical strength is definitely capable of fighting a full twelve rounds!

The bookmaker's odds were a slap in the face for Ben Wheatson and the New York Times.

……

After defeating Julian Jackson, Wang did not immediately return to San Francisco, but stayed in New York.

The reason for staying in New York is that Leonard and Hagler's rematch, which has been postponed to February 18, is also played at Madison Square Garden.

Wang Lei decided to watch the match between Leonard and Hagler live as a spectator.

He wondered how the rematch between Leonard and Hagler would be played because of the influence of this reborn butterfly, which he had not fought in his previous life.

Will Leonard still win by points or will Hagler get his revenge and beat Leonard by knockout?

It's going to be a great fight, and maybe one of the best fights of the year, and Wang Lei won't miss it.

Secondly, Wang Lei had to go to the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall in New York's Chinatown to visit his master Bolin Changqing while staying in New York.

This is something that grandpa has already instructed, and Wang Lei can't help but go.

Wang Lei stayed in New York with Ouyang Ming and his bodyguard Neeson, while Sadler and Cruise returned to San Francisco first.

New York's Chinatown is located in the southern end of Manhattan in New York City, Downtown, with more than 40 streets, an area of more than four square kilometers, and a population of more than 100,000, which is not inferior to San Francisco's Chinatown, or even surpasses.

Wang Lei's master, Berlin Changqing, opened the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall on East Broadway, a two-kilometer-long street just across the street from the towering New York City Hall. This avenue is not only adjacent to Broadway, the world art performance center, but also nine out of ten Chinese are Fuzhou, most of the shops on both sides of the road are operated by Fuzhou people, and the most heard words are also Fuzhou dialect, so this avenue is also named Fuzhou Street in New York City.

Wang Lei's master Bolin Changqing is also from Fuzhou, so his Evergreen Martial Arts Hall can be successfully opened on this avenue.

Wang Lei had already gone to the Evergreen Martial Arts Gym with Ou Yangming before the match with Julian Jackson, but Lin Changqing happened to be absent at that time, so the two ran for nothing.

However, when leaving, Wang Lei gave the disciples who stayed in the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall five tickets to Madison Square Garden to watch him play against Julian Jackson, and asked the other party to give them to Master Berlin Changqing.

I don't know if the other party did it, anyway, before the start of the game with Julian Jackson, Ou Yangming didn't see Lin Changqing entering, and he didn't see him after the game.

Ou Yangming guessed that Lin Changqing might have been delayed and couldn't come to see Wang Lei's game, so he proposed to visit the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall with Wang Lei after the game.

The day after the game against Julian Jackson, Wang Lei, Ouyang Yangming, and Nissen took a bus to the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall on East Broadway Avenue.

The doors of the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall were closed, and no one greeted them.

Fortunately, Ou Yangming knew the building of the martial arts hall very well, and took Wang Lei and Nissen into the martial arts hall through the back door.

The three of them slipped into the martial arts hall of the martial arts hall and saw people, and the nearly two hundred students of the martial arts hall did not practice martial arts today, but gathered in the martial arts hall of the martial arts hall. Opposite the two hundred students, kneeling sat nearly 100 Japanese dressed in white samurai uniforms and with black belts around their waists.

Four hundred people formed a circle in the martial arts hall, and there was a couple of people competing in the circle.

Seeing this scene, Ou Yangming was stunned for a moment, and whispered to Wang Lei and Nissen: "I actually forgot, when Senior Brother opened the martial arts hall in New York, he once had an agreement with the Jizhen Guild Hall in Manhattan to hold a martial arts exchange meeting in February every year, and each side sent ten disciples to compete in martial arts, and compete with each other!" ”

Wang Lei was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Jizhen Guild Hall?" A Gokushin Kaikan like San Francisco's Japantown? ”

Ou Yangming nodded: "That's right, but the branch of the Jizhen Hall in New York is much more important than the branch of Japantown in San Francisco, it was established in the sixties by the founder of Gokukukado Beida himself, and he also served as the first director. Up to now, the Jizhen Hall of the New York Branch has become the most apprenticed and strongest hall opened by Dashan Beida in the United States. Ten years ago, when your master came to New York to open a martial arts gym, because he also opened a martial arts gym in Manhattan, the people of the Jizhen Guild thought that your master was stealing their business, and came to the door to kick the gym, but they were not your master uncle's opponents, and they were defeated by your master one by one. In the end, Shigeru Yama, the director of the Jizhen Hall at the time, came to the door in person and had a closed-door martial arts competition with your master, and no one knew how to win or lose, and your master didn't tell me. I only know that after he competed with Shigeru Oyama, the Jizhen Guild Hall no longer troubled your master, and your master's evergreen martial arts hall opened smoothly. However, in the second year, Shigeru Oyama came to the door with dozens of disciples, saying that he wanted to exchange and compete with the students of the master. Because your master's martial arts hall has only been open for a year, and the students it accepts are all just getting started, and the Jizhen Guild Hall is full of black belts. As a result, the exchange competition was played 6 to 4, and the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall won four games and lost six games. After that, Shigeru Oyama and your master agreed to hold such a student martial arts exchange meeting every year. ”

Wang Lei frowned when he heard this, and asked, "What are the consequences of losing the competition?" ”

Ou Yangming shook his head and said: "Senior brother didn't say it, but it is certain that even if you lose, even if you don't have to pay the price, your face will not look good, and if it is spread out, it will make people look down on the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall, resulting in a decrease in the number of students who come here to learn martial arts." In the long run, Americans will mistakenly think that Chinese kung fu is not as good as extreme vacuum karate! ”

Wang Lei asked again: "Will the Evergreen Martial Arts Pavilion win or lose later?" ”

Ou Yangming said: "I won four games and lost four games, the two sides are tied, this year is the ninth martial arts exchange, if you win, the advantage is on the side of the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall." No wonder Senior Brother didn't come to see you boxing, he was busy with this matter! ”

Wang Lei looked at the competition in the field, and his brows furrowed again.

One of the two sides of the contest wore a white samurai uniform, and the other wore a black Tai Chi practice uniform.

There is no doubt that those who wear white samurai uniforms belong to the camp of the Japanese Jizhen Kaikan, and those who wear black Tai Chi practice uniforms belong to the camp of the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall.

Just looking at the battle situation, the situation of the people on the side of the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall camp is a little bad, and they were beaten back by the people on the side of the Jizhen Hall, and they only have the power to parry and have no power to fight back.

Ou Yangming also frowned when he saw this scene and said: "I know that person, his name is Liu Zhengfeng, he has been practicing Xingyi Quan with your master for three years, and he has already practiced Ming Jin, and his strength is good, but I didn't expect that he was not the opponent of Little Japan?" ”

Wang Lei touched his chin and said to Ou Yangming: "Uncle Ming, how about you say that I will pretend to be a student of the martial arts hall and fight with Little Japan?" I haven't fought a black belt who practices extreme karate! ”

Ou Yangming was a little speechless and said, "Do you think these little Japan will not know you?" ”

Wang Lei said: "What if they recognize me? Can you still refuse me? It was they who took the initiative to come to the Evergreen Martial Arts Hall to ask for a martial arts competition! ”

Ou Yangming: "......"
