Chapter 219: The Second M-1 Qualifier Elimination

In February '92, the new issue of "Boxing Ring" magazine for the best fighter of the year and the best boxing match of the year has come out. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Lei did not defend his title as Fighter of the Year in '91 again.

Although he fought three fights in '91, first debunking the myth of Abraham Ali's invincibility, knocking out Dennis Andris in three rounds, and then moving up to the welterweight division to knock out Hearns for the crown. However, "Boxing" magazine believes that Wang Lei's three matches are not rich enough.

To put it bluntly, Wang Lei's opponent is too vegetable, and it is not a big deal to defeat them, but there is a suspicion of pinching soft persimmons!

Tammy Ali has his name, Dennis Andris is just a nobody, and Hearns has already been knocked out twice by Wang Lei, neither time past three rounds, and another knockout is not too difficult.

In order to prevent Wang Lei from defending the Fighter of the Year title again, "Boxing" magazine deliberately belittled the value of Wang Lei's three fights, deliberately ignored the reaction of the media and the company before Wang Lei's match with Abraham Ali, and said that Abraham Ali was vulnerable.

And the "Cobra" Hernes, who is one of the four kings of the pan-middleweight division, was even more despised by "Boxing" magazine.

The Ring's Fighter of the Year for '91 was George Foreman.

And Foreman's "revenge fight" with the returning Holyfield was also voted the best boxing match of the year by Ring magazine.

Although "Boxing" magazine deliberately belittled Wang Lei in order to praise Foreman's ascendancy, "Boxing" magazine did not dare to mess with the selection of the year-end P4P king, and still made Wang Lei the year-end P4P king again.

After all, the "King of P4P" means excluding the influence of weight class, and the strongest boxing champion with comprehensive evaluation of various techniques, Foreman, a boxing champion who relies on physical talent to box, is unlikely to be stronger than Wang Lei, otherwise the authority and fairness of "Boxing" magazine will be seriously questioned.

During the actual combat practice in the Sadler Boxing Gym, Wang Lei served as Foreman's sparring partner several times, and it is no secret that he can fight with Foreman, and even win by points, even Foreman himself admits it.

More importantly, Wang Lei's boxing wisdom is extraordinary, and it is estimated that he can be compared with Ali in the history of boxing.

After all, he was the first person to see through Abraham Ali's fiction and reality, and he easily cracked the "tactics" designed by Steward Nails against him.

If you don't choose Wang Lei as the king of the year-end P4P, it is estimated that no fan will be convinced!

Wang Lei once again became the king of P4P in 91, and the second place is not Forman, but still the "Mexican God of War" Caesar Chavez. In third place is "Sweet Pea" Penel Vitak.

Fourth place is still not Foreman's share, but Terry Norris, who has suddenly risen to dominate the 154-pound ultra-welterweight division.

Foreman's Fighter of the Year is only fifth!

As for the comeback Holyfield and Tyson before he was imprisoned, they didn't have a share in the top ten!

On the contrary, it is Roy Jones Jr. and James Toney, who are "familiar" with Wang Lei, who have risen to the top of the middleweight and super middleweight divisions respectively and become kings. The former is in sixth place and the latter is in ninth.

Wang Lei doesn't care about the selection of "Boxing" magazine now, but Wang Lei is still very happy to be able to defend the year-end P4P king again.

If he defends his title twice, not to mention before him, it is estimated that no fighter will surpass him in the next twenty years.

After his match with Marvin Carmel on April 15 and unifying the welterweight divisions, Wang Lei focused on the qualifying tournament for the second edition of the M-1 Tournament, in addition to starting to gain weight.

Thanks to the success of last year's M-1 Tournament, the $6.6 million prize money and the attractiveness of the M-1 Fighting Game spokesperson, nearly three times as many players signed up for the M-1 Tournament this year as there were last year.

With so many players participating, it is natural that you have to arrange it well, otherwise there will be chaos.

After discussing with Ouyang Ming and McKel, Wang Lei still set the number of players in the official competition at 32.

In other words, in addition to last year's champion and runner-up, who were seeded and not participated in the qualifiers, more than 600 players from all over the world who signed up for the "M-1 tournament" must compete for a 30-place through the qualifiers.

Because most of the participants are from the United States, the qualifiers ended up dividing the United States into 18 regions and competing for 18 spots. Outside the United States, there are 12 regions competing for 12 spots.

Last year's top 16 players in the M-1 tournament, including Asahi Fuji Masaya, Matsui Akiya, Pak Yum Law, Hoyce Gracie, Ray Mercer, Carlos Leon, Rob Carman and Donlong Wilson, all gave up, and the rest continued to compete.

Chekov, who was eliminated in the qualifiers last year, is back in the competition.

Another of Wang's bodyguards, Ston Butch, was egged on by Scott and signed up for the race.

Last year, he lost a bet with Wang Lei, and Ou Yangming, who wanted to participate, finally gave up the game. Because Wang Lei felt that he had pushed Ou Yangming to the front desk as his spokesperson, it was not suitable for him to participate in the competition.

However, Tyson, who became interested in the "M-1 competition", was accidentally imprisoned for two months, which caused his match with Foreman to be postponed until May, and he had to abandon the competition.

Tyson didn't participate, and Carlos León and Ray Mercer gave up, but this year's "M-1 tournament" still had one professional boxer in attendance.

One is heavyweight Mitchell Muller!

That's right, it was the famous left-handed boxing champion in the original timeline, who once defeated Holyfield to become a double boxing champion, and was regarded by the media as the "hope star" who was most likely to unify the heavyweight after Tyson, and then he was knocked down by the 45-year-old Foreman's "Cold Boxing of the Century", which made Foreman, the oldest boxing champion in boxing history.

Mitchell Muller in this timeline has yet to meet Holyfield or Foreman, has no title on his body, and only moved up from light heavyweight to heavyweight last year.

It's a pity that Mitchell Mueller is not famous yet, and his participation in the "M-1 competition" has not been cared for by any media.

Because Stambuch and Chekov are also registered, both of them will play in the California region in the qualifiers. In order to avoid a three-man infighting, Nalleron had to move to Seattle, Washington, to participate in the qualifiers, as he did last year.

Because of the large number of people who signed up for the competition, this year's "M-1" qualifiers and knockout tournaments took a full ten days to determine the winner.

The result greatly surprised Wang Lei!

Not only were Ston Butch and Chekov eliminated, but even last year's round of 16, Naleron, who ran in Washington state, was unexpectedly eliminated!

What surprised Wang Lei even more was that even Senior Brother Zhao Peng, who had received secret training from the master for a whole year, with the intention of washing away his shame, was eliminated in the New York region!

After knocking out Tonbuch and Chekov successively, and finally advancing to the California region, one of the 32 official contestants in the "M-1 competition" is a Chinese American named Huang Shengtian.

This Chinese identity named Huang Shengtian is very unusual, he is the first thug of the 426 pairs of flowers and red sticks in the Hongmen of San Francisco.

Unlike Li Tailong, the 426 double-flowered red stick and gold medal fighter in Xiangjiang New Ngee An, Huang Shengtian is a kung fu master who has practiced traditional martial arts since he was a child, and is proficient in Hongquan and Shaolin Wuxingquan, and has also practiced dark energy like Liu Wenlong. It is rumored that he also fought in underground boxing for several years, killed many people, and was very angry, and was accepted as a righteous son by Liang Yi, the boss of the San Francisco Red Gate, with a very high status.

Huang Shengtian is a key figure in the San Francisco Police Department, and Wang Lei's fourth uncle, Huang Ben, has his file.

Huang Ben attaches great importance to Huang Shengtian's family, thinking that Huang Shengtian is very dangerous, he thinks that Huang Shengtian is Liang Yi's righteous son on the surface, but in fact Liang Yi is a killer cultivated by Liang Yi, Liang Yi has many competitors who have died or disappeared for unknown reasons, and Huang Ben thinks that nine times out of ten he was killed by Huang Shengtian. So as soon as he found out that Huang Shengtian actually came to participate in the "M-1" qualifier and knockout, he immediately ran to find Wang Lei.

Huang Ben didn't want Wang Lei to stop Huang Shengtian from participating in the competition, but just told Wang Lei Huang Shengtian's identity file and told him to be careful.

Wang Lei didn't want to see a gang of thugs participate in the "M-1 competition", so he secretly ordered Tonbutch and Chekov to do their best to eliminate Huang Shengtian. And let Ou Yangming once again make a move at the draw ceremony, specially arranging a strong opponent for Huang Shengtian.

But all these arrangements were useless, Huang Shengtian's strength was amazing, and his shots were very ruthless and ferocious, most of the opponents who fought with him were injured, even Ston Buch and Chekov were not opponents, they were eliminated by him, and Chekov was even almost lost a leg by him.

Wang Lei was speechless about this, and could only watch Huang Shengtian advance to the official competition!

Tonbuch and Chekov were eliminated by Huang Shengtian, but in Naleron, Washington, they were eliminated by Paul Vannet.

Last year's stop in the round of 16 made Inosandro feel humiliated, and Paul Vannet, who had personally trained for a whole year, was much stronger, and learned jiu-jitsu twists and joint limbs, and dragged Nellon to the ground when he competed with Nellon, and used his choke to choke Nellon's neck, forcing Nellon to admit defeat.

But to Inosandu's humiliation and disappointment again, Paul Vannet eliminated Nalleron but did not qualify, and he was also eliminated.

One of the 32 players who eliminated Paul Vannet to advance to the main event was a veteran American soldier named Keck.

To Wang Lei's surprise, the information showed that this white-haired retired soldier named Keke, who had participated in the Vietnam War, was almost 50 years old this year, and could be said to be the oldest of all the contestants in "M-1". Despite his gray hair, he was incredibly strong, and it only took him half a minute to eliminate Paul Van Net.

Wang Lei watched the video of the match between Keck and Paul Vannet twice on TV, but he couldn't see how Keck defeated Paul Vannet, nor did he see what kind of kung fu or martial arts Keck was practicing.

Because the information showed that this Keck had participated in the Vietnam War, Wang Lei called Neeson and McKel, who had also participated in the Vietnam War, over and asked them if they knew the origin of this Keck.

Neeson and McKale both looked strange when they watched Keck and Paul Vannet on TV as they watched the match. (To be continued.) )
