"Lei Wang, seventeen years old, Chinese name Wang Lei, born in San Francisco's Chinatown, is said to have been a Chinese worker who came to San Francisco with the San Francisco 'Gold Rush' and eventually lived in San Francisco's Chinatown. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Wang's father was a skilled chef and opened a mom-and-pop restaurant in Chinatown with Wang's mother, and the business was thriving because of the delicious authentic Chinese food he cooked. Wang's grandfather was a well-known Chinese medicine practitioner in Chinatown, and it is said that when he was young, he learned a kung fu called 'Xingyi Fist' from an unknown Chinese martial artist and taught it to Wang.

Wang has practiced Chinese kung fu since he was a child, but he never fights in school, but he is an excellent academic student, with basically an A or A+ in his academic performance, and his teachers are optimistic that Wang will be accepted into Stanford University or the University of California, Berkeley, and San Francisco after graduating from high school. But Wang's ambition was influenced by Bruce Lee to be admitted to the USC Film School and become a screenwriter and director.

But Wang's Hollywood dreams changed when he entered a run-down boxing gym and met Dick Sadler.

Dick Sadler is a professional boxing coach who coached George Foreman, one of the most famous heavyweight champions of the 70s, nicknamed 'The Devil'. And before that, Sadler also coached Sonny Liston, nicknamed 'The Demon King', and Freddie Rittier, the WBA and WBC super welterweight champion in the late sixties. Although it is not clear why Sadler broke up with George Foreman and went to San Francisco to open a boxing gym, the fact that he was able to coach three boxing champions shows that Sadler's coaching level is not low, not much worse than that of famous coaches such as Fuch and Dundee.

When Sadler saw Wang for the first time, he concluded that Wang had a talent for boxing and thought that he could become a boxing champion in the future.

Although Wang is a yellow race, his physique is not as weak as other yellow people, but is not worse than blacks and whites.

Attracted by Sadler's promise of a bright future, Wang became Sadler's new disciple and learned boxing from Sadler.

Having practiced Chinese kung fu since childhood, Wang made rapid progress in learning boxing, and after only three months of boxing, Sadler asked Wang to sign up for the 'Youth Amateur Boxing Tournament' held in San Francisco, thinking that he could easily win the championship.

The 128-pound king didn't disappoint Sadler, making it all the way to the lightweight title. And the record is seven wins and seven KOs.

After that, Wang qualified to participate in the "National Golden Glove Boxing Championship" organized by the American Amateur Boxing Association in October.

Although the 130-pound division of the Golden Glove had older and more famous fighters like Roy Jones Jr. and Lamar Craig, Wang still defeated them to claim the Golden Glove and still maintain a record of all knockouts.

The following year, Wang weighed around 140 pounds and fought 25 more amateur fights, still winning all by knockout.

While participating in the fourth World Amateur Boxing Championships organized by the International Amateur Boxing Federation in May, Wang shouted the slogan of being a 'KO King' to a reporter who interviewed him.

And he did what he said, and he still won all the KOs at the 'World Amateur Boxing Championships' and finally won the gold medal.

The reporter interviewed former middleweight champion Emil Griffith, who had been invited by Sadler to go to the boxing gym for a few days to sparring Wang and coach Wang in boxing.

Griffiths said that Wang is the most talented and conscious fighter he has ever seen.

Wang is not left-handed, but he can balance left and right like a left-handed boxer, and his posture can be changed from side to side. His style of play is like a cross between heavyweight champion Ali and his arch-foe Joe Fraser.

Agile with footwork and body play, he excels at jabs, and when his opponent distances him, he plays like Ali, repeatedly hitting his opponent with jabs and heavy jabs to keep them at bay. When his opponent got close, he switched to Joe Frazier's style of play, a left-right hook combination that bombarded his opponent like a fire hook and sent him to hell.

And Wang has a great talent for fighting, and he is very good at catching a gap that is fleeting and taking the opportunity to throw a heavy punch.

Griffiths asserted that after Wang entered professional boxing, he definitely had a chance to become a boxing champion.

Although he is Joe Forman's younger brother, Wang's style of play is not at all similar to his former brother. The only thing that is similar is probably the power of the punches.

To maintain an amateur record of all knockouts shows that Wang's heavy punches are no less terrifying than those of his former brother, George Foreman.

Although he is still in the light and middleweight division, it is conceivable that after Wang entered the professional boxing world, he could break through the nickname of 'The Devil' like his senior brother with the terrifying lethality of his heavy punches alone.

The reporter interviewed two of Wang's sparring partners, Chuck Cruise, who weighed 165 pounds, and Chekov, a large Russian-American man who weighed more than 200 pounds.

According to Cruise and Chekov, Wang's favorite training sessions are heavy punching bags and heavy weight squats.

Although the weight is only lightweight, the weight of the barbell used by Wang to practice squats is equivalent to that of the weight class, and the number of exercises and sets is also higher, usually more than ten reps in each of the six sets.

With such weight and amount of exercise, not to mention Cruise, who weighs 165 pounds, even Chekov, who weighs more than 200 pounds, can't do it.

But the miraculous thing is that although Wang's training volume is very large, his recovery power is amazing, no matter how hard he trains and how much he trains on the first day, he can completely return to normal the next day, and he will not be tired at all, let alone injured.

Cruise said that Wang secretly practiced a Chinese legend of health-preserving qigong, which not only prolongs life, but also has the miraculous effect of recovering fatigue overnight. This qigong is said to have been taught to the king by a mysterious Chinese old man from Xiangjiang.

It is a pity that there has been an unwritten and strict rule in Chinese practice since ancient times, which does not allow disciples to teach the exercises in private, otherwise they will be abolished, and even outsiders will not be able to peek at their practice. Therefore, Wang could only practice this qigong in private, not to mention Cruise and Chekov, and even Coach Sadler did not know how to practice it.

In addition to heavy weight squats, Wang often hits heavy punching bags to enhance the power of heavy punches.

Wang's punching bag weighed 180 pounds, and a punch could make the bag shake and almost burst. It is said that Wang was not satisfied and wanted to get a 360-pound overweight punching bag to practice.

As far as the reporter knows, Bruce Lee, the king of kung fu at the time, once used a 360-pound super-heavy punching bag to practice.

But Lee kicks the punching bag with his feet, and with his fists, even a heavyweight professional fighter can't beat the 360-pound overweight punching bag.

Speaking of Bruce Lee, the reporter remembered that Bruce Lee once accepted the invitation of a TV program to let Bruce Lee test his boxing strength with a boxing force tester.

Bruce Lee, who weighed just 130 pounds at the time, threw 350-pound punches.

The 350-pound punch didn't look like much, but it was Bruce Lee who struck his fist an inch away from the boxing dynamometer.

Bruce Lee calls this ultra-short-distance punching kung fu 'cunquan', which is said to be derived from traditional Chinese kung fu.

Practice to the depths of the gong, and be able to hurt people at ultra-short distances of less than an inch, or even close to the body.

Throwing 350-pound punches at an ultra-short distance of just one inch is something that even heavyweight professional boxers can't do. Although they can punch seven, eight, or even thousands of pounds on a boxing dynamometer, they can't punch two hundred pounds at an ultra-short distance of one inch.

But the king was able to do it.

The reporter has seen Wang Da boxing force tester with his own eyes.

Wang weighs 140 pounds and throws punches with normal boxing stance and distance, with a left punch capable of 320 pounds and a right punch capable of delivering 540 pounds.

And when he got close to the boxing dynamometer and threw punches at an ultra-short distance of one inch, he still punched 300 pounds.

Although it is 50 pounds worse than Bruce Lee's 'inch fist' strength, it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Don't forget that Wang is only seventeen years old, and his strength is still in the growth period.

According to Wang, the Chinese boxing method 'Xingyi Boxing' he has practiced since he was a child has the means to exert force at close range, and he will also be able to use 'Inch Boxing'.

The reporter couldn't help but think of the fight between the king and Ramar Craig at the 'National Golden Glove Boxing Tournament'.

At that time, Ramar Craig was almost broken by the king's punch, so he hugged the king to death.

Being held by their opponents in the ring is a professional fighter who has no choice but to wait for the referee to step forward and separate them. But Wang threw a punch, and he was able to do it even when he was being held by Lamar Craig, and he was crushed by Ramar Craig with one punch.

It seems that the king of the 'San Francisco Youth Boxing Tournament' has also used this trick.

Apparently Wang didn't brag about it, he really mastered Bruce Lee's 'inch punches' and was able to punch his opponent hard at ultra-short distances and even get clung to it.

Wang's opponent should be careful, and it is recommended not to hug Wang in the boxing ring.

Wang frankly told reporters that in the professional boxing world, his idol is Ali, and after becoming a professional boxer, he hopes to fight heavyweight boxing matches.

Wang already plans to gain weight as soon as he becomes a professional fighter, only about ten pounds a year, and will be able to move up to heavyweight in five years at most.

Wang is only 17 years old now, and he is still growing his body, although his height is only 1.75 meters, but I believe that in two or three years at most, he will be able to grow to more than 1.85 meters.

When the time comes, he will be fully qualified to play the heavyweight division with his height, and you must know that there are many heavyweight boxing champions who are about 1.8 meters tall. 'Brown Bomber' Joe Louis is 1.86m tall, undefeated boxing champion Rocky Maciano is just 1.80m tall, Floyd Patterson is 1.82m, Demon King Thornyliston is 1.85m, and Ali's arch-nemesis Joe Fraser is less than 1.82m tall. Even Mike Tyson, a rising heavyweight star who has just risen this year and has a professional record of 22 wins and 22 KOs in 22 fights, seems to be less than 1.80 meters tall......

To the reporter's surprise, although Wang is already a well-known boxer, he still has not given up his original Hollywood dream.

At this year's Sundance Film Festival in January, a sci-fi thriller film, "The Night the Comet Comed," was nominated for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay, and won Best Screenplay.

The most surprising thing about this film is not that its director is a 16-year-old Chinese girl, nor that its shooting cost and cycle are 3,000 US dollars and half a month respectively, but that its screenwriter's signature is 'Boxing King Lei'.

This 'boxing king Lei' is the king.

According to Wang, the grandfather of the director of this film and his grandfather are brothers, world friends, and have known each other since childhood. In addition to "The Night the Comet Comed," Wang also wrote a horror script for the director's sister, which received investment from New Line Films and is currently being filmed and will be released to the audience around the end of the year.

In addition to writing the screenplay, Wang is also writing a science fiction novel called "Jurassic Park", which is said to be nearing completion and intends to submit it for publication.

Although the reporter was not able to witness the novel written by Wang, the script written by Wang won the Best Screenplay Award at the Sundance Film Festival, and his grade in school has always been A, indicating that the level of writing is not low.

If Wang's novel can be successfully published, and the horror film released at the end of the year can be a blockbuster, Wang will be able to gain fame and fortune even if he does not box.

If Wang can still enter professional boxing as a screenwriter and writer and become a boxing champion, Wang will be the most talented boxing champion in boxing history.

A true combination of civil and military!

……

Finally, before the reporter interviewed Wang, Wang had reached an agreement with the famous professional boxing promoter Bob Arum to make Mr. Arum Wang's agent and promoter and enter professional boxing.

According to Mr. Arum, Wang has applied for a professional boxing license from the state and government of California, and will be able to obtain it by the end of this year at the latest.

After becoming a professional fighter, it will be interesting to see if Wang can still maintain his 'KO King' record of winning all the knockouts! ”

The above article, which appeared on the front page of the sports section of the San Francisco Chronicle, with a photo of Wang Lei holding the gold medal of the "World Amateur Boxing Championship", looks very convincing.

The reporter who wrote this article was an "old acquaintance" of Wang Lei, who was the first reporter to interview him when he participated in the "San Francisco Junior Boxing Tournament" last year -- Simon Neal.

Although the first time he wrote an interview with Wang Lei, Simon Neil portrayed Wang Lei as an arrogant boy with no one in his eyes, which made Wang Lei very unhappy.

But after returning from Reno City, Simon Neill came to the door and apologized to Wang Lei very "sincerely", asked to give Wang Lei a separate interview, and promised not to smear Wang Lei, and to be as fair and objective as possible.

Wang Lei saw that his attitude was sincere, not like there was a conspiracy, so he agreed.

Simon Neil concocted the above article after following Wang Lei for three days and talking to Sadler, Cruise, Chekov and others.

As soon as this article came out, Wang Lei suddenly became popular again.
