Chapter Eighty-Seven: Duran's Eyes

Luck is obviously not on Wang Lei's side this time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

On August 16, the sun was shining.

By two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was scorching, and the heat was unbearably hot, and the temperature was close to forty degrees.

Under such a scorching sun and high temperature, Wang Lei, who was only wearing boxing shorts, didn't need to warm up to sweat.

But the heat couldn't stop the madness of Panamanian fans of Duran, and the stadium, which could only accommodate 40,000 spectators, was crammed into more than 50,000 spectators.

If it weren't really squeezed in, I'm afraid the number of viewers would be even more.

This shows Duran's super popularity in Panama!

In such a hot weather, Wang Lei's original appearance ceremony had to be canceled.

In such a hot weather, he is still doing tricks at the appearance ceremony, which is purely a drain of physical strength, even if Wang Lei is willing to Sadler, he will insist on opposing it.

Moreover, this is Duran's home stadium, and the more than 50,000 spectators at the scene are Panamanians who regard Duran as a hero idol, and if he plays too much, I am afraid that he will not be able to leave the stadium after the game.

Also sweating is the host of the scene, standing in the ring and talking loudly, I feel that my throat is smoking, and at the same time, my head is also emitting white gas, like steaming buns.

Despite the unbearable heat, the host was very dedicated and spoke Spanish to the more than 50,000 spectators who were the referees of the two protagonists of the game.

With the loud introduction of the host on the spot, Wang Lei slowly appeared under the support of Sadler, Ou Yangming and others, as well as Arum.

Not only did he not make any tricks at the appearance ceremony, but he didn't even bother to wear a shirt, so he appeared shirtless in shorts.

Along the way, he also followed Sadler's instructions and walked slowly, lest he evaporate his body water too quickly and cause heat stroke.

The more than 50,000 spectators at the scene were also too hot, sweat mixed with different body odors wafting in the air, and the smell was disgusting. The reason why these spectators came to the stadium with the high temperature was to cheer for their hero Duran, naturally no one cheered for Wang Lei's appearance, and they didn't even bother to waste their strength to boo him.

After Wang Lei came to the ring, Duran also appeared.

With Duran's appearance, the more than 50,000 spectators who were originally weak at the scene suddenly lifted their spirits and broke out into enthusiastic cheers.

The sound was so loud that it almost deafened Wang Lei's ears!

Looking at Duran, who was crossing the sidewalk at a slow pace and smiling at the audience on both sides and waving his hands to make flying kisses, Wang Lei suddenly felt a little envious.

When did you have so many die-hard fans?

Although his popularity in the American boxing world is very high, and there are many hardcore Chinese fans in Chinatown areas such as San Francisco and New York, they will definitely not worship Duran as their spiritual symbol and as a hero like these Panamanian fans.

He even braved the risk of heat stroke in the 40-degree heat to watch his game!

Even if there is, the number of people will definitely not be too much, not to mention more than 50,000, it would be a miracle to be able to exceed 5,000!

Maybe when I go to China to fight a boxing championship in a few years, I may get such treatment.

It is said that boxing has just resumed in China, but it is only amateur boxing, and professional boxing has not yet appeared.

If you let the country know that there is such a Chinese American with 100% Chinese blood in the United States who has become a world boxing champion, or a super boxing champion who spans two or three levels and has one of the most influential influences, those people in China are not crazy about themselves.

If you go back to China to fight a boxing championship, the number of spectators who are crazy about yourself on the scene will not exceed 50,000, and you may be able to break the record for the number of spectators in professional boxing.

What is the current record for the number of viewers in the history of professional boxing?

Like 120,000 people?

That bout was supposed to be a heavyweight title fight for Jack Dempsey, the "hookboxing king" of the twenties.

It seems that the record was not broken until '93 when legendary Mexican boxing champion and nicknamed "God of War" Chavez and his opponent Haugen fought in Mexico.

It is said that the shrewd sales pitch and vigorous advocacy of Chavez's agent, Don King, led to an unprecedented number of more than 136,000 spectators who bought tickets to watch the game.

This unprecedented record was not broken in the previous life until Wang Lei was reborn, and it is estimated that no one will break it in another twenty years.

Unless Wang Lei goes to China for a boxing championship, the Chinese media and officials help to promote it, and maybe break this record for the number of spectators.

In Wang Lei's thoughts, Duran finally walked through the sidewalk, boarded the ring, and came to the opposite side of him.

This is the second time Wang Lei has met with Duran.

The first time was at the pre-game press conference, in which Duran basically didn't speak, no matter how the reporters in the audience instigated or Wang Lei said anything, he didn't say a word, and his calm and silent appearance made people feel creepy.

It is said that when New York Times writer Dave Anderson interviewed former heavyweight boxing champion Joe Frazier, he once asked Fraser: Does Duran remind him of someone?

Anderson asked this question because he felt that Duran and Fraser's boxing styles were very similar, and he wanted to use this topic to guide Fraser to compare himself with Duran.

But Frazier's answer was a big surprise.

Fraser did think of someone, but he thought of a serial killer named "Charles Manson."

Charles Manson is the most famous cult figure and serial killer in the United States, he once broke into the home of the great director Polanski in Hollywood in 69 years, brutally killed Polanski's wife who was eight months pregnant and three other friends, apparently stabbed the deceased hundreds of times and shot him several times, and then hung the bodies of Polanski's wife and makeup artist in the living room, and used her blood to scrawl slogans on the wall.

Surprisingly, Charles Manson was later captured by the police, and after a court trial, he was not sentenced to death, but was imprisoned for life.

Before Wang Lei was reborn, this guy was still alive and well, and he lived a good life in prison, not only established a personal website, had countless crazy fans who adored him, and even released a record with good sales, and his songs were constantly covered.

Hollywood has also made a movie based on the deeds of Charles Manson, and there are several adaptations of American dramas.

What made Wang Lei even more speechless was that in 2013, Charles Manson, who was 80 years old, was actually in love with a young beauty and held a wedding with him in prison.

Wang Lei saw photos of Charles Manson and that young beauty on the Internet in his previous life, and he only thought that the American world was too crazy!

A madman killer like Charles Manson actually reminded former boxing champion Joe Fraser of Duran.

This shows what a terrible person Duran is in the ring!

But Fraser was right, Duran's fluffy hair and wolf-like eyes were indeed very reminiscent of serial killers, and most of the opponents who were targeted by his eyes felt suffocating fear.

The short man, who was originally born in the lightweight division, actually challenged middleweight champion Marvin Hagler in '83, and fought Hagler for fifteen rounds, losing by only a narrow number of points. Not to mention that Duran also played a trilogy battle with Leonard and won one against Leonard.

It's no wonder that Duran was voted the fifth of the 80 superstars in professional boxing history over the past 80 years, far above the three middleweight kings of Leonard, Hagler and Hearns.

In the face of such Duran, Wang Lei did feel unprecedented pressure.

But he was not afraid, and Duran's wolf-like eyes couldn't frighten him!

Wang Lei felt that his grandfather's eyes were much more terrifying than Du Lan's!

If Duran's eyes are like a wolf, grandpa's eyes are like ...... Lion!

Every night, under the supervision of his grandfather's lion-like majestic eyes, Wang Lei didn't dare to be lazy, lest his grandfather be dissatisfied, so he pulled down the bamboo strip in his hand.

Wang Lei still has no ability to avoid his grandfather's bamboo strips!

Therefore, being glared at by Duran's wolf-like eyes, Wang Lei was not afraid, but lowered his head and glared back viciously, and said provocatively: "Short man, what are you looking at?" ”

Duran: "......"

Fortunately, the law enforcement referee noticed that something was wrong and quickly separated the two and let the two return to their corners, otherwise they were afraid that the boxing match would have started before the bell rang.

A bell rang and the game officially began.
