Chapter 173: Who is the best person in the boxing world
The latest issue of Sports Illustrated's "Boxing Special" did an interesting survey. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
A total of tens of thousands of fans were randomly interviewed and asked who they are who can fight in today's boxing world.
Unlike the year-end P4P poll conducted by The Ring, Sports Illustrated's investigators asked fans about weight and technique, but who would be able to fight and stand last if some of the most popular champions in professional boxing were to compete in the ring.
Surprisingly, more than 60 percent of the fans chose the son of light heavyweight triple crown champion Ali, Abraham, known as the "Evil Dragon", instead of the heavyweight "Beast" Tyson, let alone Chinese kung fu, and now there is still one boxing belt away from the four-division triple crown "Chinese Kid" Wang Lei.
Abraham Ali only debuted last year, broke into the professional world without playing an amateur boxing match, became a light heavyweight champion after only one year, and then unified the light heavyweight division within half a year to become a triple crown.
It is worth mentioning that Abraham Ali is a typical battle maniac, he has only been a year and a half since his debut, but he has to play a game almost every half a month, sometimes even three or four times a month, and he doesn't care about the publicity time or anything. It is said that he once told media reporters that as long as he can beat his opponent in boxing, even if there is no audience or zero appearance fee, it will be fine.
Such a warlike personality is completely opposite to his father Ali!
Abraham's agent had no choice but to keep arranging games for him, resulting in Abraham playing so far, and the number of professional matches is actually two more than Wang Lei, who has been debuting for almost four years.
Ali currently has a record of 22 fights, 22 wins and 22 knockouts.
It's amazing that all of Ali's 22 fights have been knocked out by him within one round, except for two rounds of knockouts of former light heavyweight champion Griff in April.
Despite the fact that none of Ali's opponents are well-known, and there are no super-popular champions like Leonard and Hearns in the light heavyweight division, Abraham Ali's knockout efficiency is still so impressive that many fans who watched his fight found his strength to be terrifying, and seemed to be a little more terrifying than Tyson "The Beast".
Actually, Tyson was before being defeated by Foreman. His record is not much worse than that of Abraham Ali, and most of the fights have been knocked out in a single round.
But fans can't see that, and they only think that Tyson has lost once, while Ali has won all fights and knockouts. The time to knock out the opponent is so short that even Wang Lei can't compare.
So when these fans were asked by Sports Illustrated's investigators who is the best in boxing today, they instinctively thought of Abraham Ali.
Fortunately, there are not a few sane fans, and after analysis, these sane fans still think that Tyson is a little better than Abraham. There are even more sane fans who think that Wang Lei is better than Abraham.
The reason given by these more sane fans is that Wang Lei also has a record of winning and knocking out. And he's knocked out a lot of super-popular champions like Leonard, Duran, Hearns, and Mugabi, to name a few.
Unfortunately, after all, the majority of fans are irrational, so after interviewing tens of thousands of fans, the reporter of Sports Illustrated came up with the following votes: Abraham first, Tyson second, Foreman third, Holyfield fourth, Wang Lei fifth......
That's right, Wang Lei is ranked fifth!
Although Wang Lei is now super popular in the professional boxing world. As a super middleweight champion, the appearance fee is as much as that of heavyweight champion Tyson, and he has beaten three heavyweight wrestlers, fought with Tyson, and almost broke Tyson's egg, but still few fans think that he can really beat Tyson and his senior brother Foreman in the ring.
Not only Tyson, but even Holyfield, who retired at the end of last year due to heart problems, is considered by many fans to be better than Wang Lei.
Because Holyfield is said to have recovered his heart and is about to make a comeback.
The Sports Illustrated survey, despite its, has become the hottest topic in boxing this month, and even boxing magazine has been affected by it.
This month's cover of The Ring magazine is none other than Abraham Ali. The cover shows Abraham on his back, which not only shows Abraham's extremely strong inverted triangle back muscles and the red dragon tattoo on his back, but also deliberately puts the busts of Wang Lei and Tyson on it.
However, the half-portraits of Wang Lei and Tyson are only the size of a palm, one on the left and one on the right, below Abraham. It's completely a supporting role as a foil.
"Boxing" magazine said: Abraham Ali, Mike Tyson and Wang Lei are the "Big Three" of today's professional boxing world, and if nothing happens in the next few years, the three of them will take turns to be the king of P4P at the end of the year.
There is even a media reporter who revealed that "The Ring" magazine seems to be interested in awarding this year's year-end P4P king to Abraham Ali, even if Wang Lei defeats Leonard again at the end of the year to unify the super middleweight division and become the only four-division triple crown in boxing history. will also fall to second place.
Wang Lei is very unhappy about this, and Tyson is not happy either!
"Boxing" magazine obviously wants to promote Abraham to the top position, praising him as the protagonist of professional boxing, and treating Wang Lei and Tyson as supporting roles to foil Abraham.
How can Wang Lei endure it, and Tyson, who regards himself as a "son of God", can't bear it!
Nima, you are a newcomer who has only debuted for a year and a half, and your hair has not grown, why do you ride on the shoulders of a veteran like me......
Well, my brother is only twenty-one years old this year, and he is still very young!
However, compared with Abraham Ali, who has only been debuting for a year and a half and is less than 20 years old this year, the brother who has debuted for almost four years is indeed a veteran!
Therefore, Wang Lei came to New York under the pretext of checking the progress of Netflix's filming of the Marvel superhero TV series, but the main purpose was to think of Madison Square Garden to cheer for his newly recognized brother Chen Jun and cheer him up.
Wang Lei didn't think that Chen Jun could beat Abraham Ali, he just hoped that Chen Jun would not be knocked out by Abraham Ali in one round, and that he could hold on for a few more rounds, preferably more than five rounds.
That way, the irrational fans will realize that Abraham Ali is not really invincible!
In the title defense match between Abraham Ali and Chen Jun, not only Wang Lei came to cheer, but Tyson, who lived in New York and did not play, also came to cheer.
Tyson mainly wanted to see Abraham Ali in action, as he had never seen Abraham Ali boxing in person before.
But since Ali publicly clamored that he would move up to heavyweight within two years and challenge him. After defeating him and stealing his heavyweight title, Tyson had his sights set on Ali.
As soon as the new issues of Sports Illustrated and Boxing Magazine came out, Tyson couldn't sit still!
Brother is the darling of boxing, the son of God. How is it the turn of a brother who has an illegitimate son who came out of nowhere!
Tyson was even more upset than Wang Lei, so he came to watch Abraham Ali's game!
Coincidentally, Wang Lei's seat and Tyson's seat are next to each other.
Since filming "Black Prison Fighters", Tyson has forgotten about Wang Lei's Las Vegas almost breaking his eggs, and no longer looks at Wang Lei coldly. There is a kind of meaning of smiling and smiling at enmity.
Seeing Wang Lei, Tyson said hello happily, and then congratulated him: "Wang, congratulations on your movie being a box office hit again, I watched this horror film, although I didn't understand it, but it is indeed very good-looking, a little touching, do you think the film I starred in can get the box office of this horror film?" ā
Wang Lei wanted to argue that "The Sixth Sense" was not a horror film, but a thriller drama. But I think Tyson may not understand the explanation, and in the end there is no explanation.
Regarding Tyson's last question, Wang Lei was a little speechless.
If an action movie wants to get a global box office of $700 million, it is absolutely impossible, even if it is starring you Tyson!
This is not a superhero action blockbuster like Captain America 2 The Winter Soldier!
What's more, the reason why "Captain America 2 The Winter Soldier" was able to win a global box office of 700 million US dollars is not only because of decades of comic book heritage, but also because it used the first and several other Marvel superhero films to cultivate a large number of die-hard fans, so that it could get such a high global box office.
What is there in this "Black Prison Boxer", that is, the popularity of my brother and you!
You're welcome. Although you Tyson is the most popular heavyweight boxing champion in professional boxing, in the film industry, you are estimated to be less influential than a second-rate star, and it is really nothing!
Can this "Black Prison Boxer" get how much box office. The main thing is to see the popularity of my brother, the highest-grossing screenwriter in Hollywood!
In Wang Lei's heart, "Black Prison Boxer" can get 100 million US dollars in North America, and the global box office of more than 200 million US dollars is good!
After all, this is just a prison action movie, and the "Black Prison Boxer" trilogy in the previous life does not seem to have exceeded 100 million at the North American box office, and the main profit still depends on the video tape market.
Wang Lei said these words to Tyson, after all, he personally "fooled" Tyson to make this film. So Wang Lei just replied vaguely: "Hope!" ā
Fortunately, Tyson didn't dwell on this question, and instead asked: "Wang, I heard that Chris Chen is your new friend, he is also Chinese like you, and he can also use Chinese kung fu, what is his strength?" Can you beat Abraham? ā
Wang Lei thought for a while and said honestly: "I don't think it's possible, I just hope he won't lose too badly, just survive a round!" ā
"Oh!" Tyson was a little surprised: "You've watched Abraham play twice on the spot, right?" What do you think of this guy, really better than you and me? ā
Obviously, Tyson is complaining about Sports Illustrated!
Wang Lei smiled and said, "I don't think so, if he hasn't been upgraded next year, I will be promoted to light heavyweight and fight him, and we'll see who is more powerful!" ā
"Well, I support you in defeating Abraham!" Tyson first expressed his support, then pouted and looked at Abraham Ali who came out of the locker room, and said: "I just see that this guy is unhappy, an illegitimate child, why can he ride on my head!" ā
Wang Lei was silent, because he felt that this plot was so familiar!
By the way, don't many of the starting novels I read in my previous life have such plots?
The protagonist who is an illegitimate child has risen because his performance is too good, so he thinks that the supporting role or dragon set of noble birth is disdainful in the audience, and he cooed and expressed his dissatisfaction, saying that an illegitimate child is just **** luck, why is it above them, what will happen if they are on the field...... Needless to say, the final result was slapped in the face by the illegitimate protagonist!
Abraham Ali is the main character, and brother and Tyson are supporting characters or tricks?
, brother is the real protagonist!
Brother is a reborn, what is Abraham Ali, just an illegitimate child, why should he be the protagonist......
Well, the more I think about it, the more I look like a supporting character in the novel who is destined to be slapped in the face?
Wang Lei hurriedly threw away these messy thoughts, shifted his eyes to the ring, and watched the game intently.
Chen Jun and Abraham are already standing in the ring!
Since Wang Lei set off the trend of showing off at the appearance ceremony, more and more fighters like to show off funny at the appearance ceremony to increase entertainment and popularity, and even Tyson has begun to learn from it.
But as a favorite show, Abraham, the son of Ali, who is always full of topics off the court, is an exception.
Abraham Ali's way of appearing has always been the same, wearing a shirt and appearing silently, without music or other tricks, and after getting into the boxing ring, he is also silent, and he looks like no one is close.
It was only when the bell rang for the start of the game that Abraham Ali's expression changed.
The excited and bloodthirsty expression of a beast like seeing its prey can often make opponents shudder!
However, Abraham Ali's performance has also won over many fans.
Veteran fans feel that Abraham Ali is not like his father, nor like Tyson, but like the first generation of heavyweight boxing, the "Demon King" that his father Ali defeated when he won the championship and became the heavyweight champion.
I have to say that the personality of Abraham Ali, who is not close to anyone, is indeed very similar to the unsmiling "Demon King" Sonny Liston!
If it weren't for the fact that Abraham didn't look like Liston at all, but like Ali, it is estimated that some people would suspect that Abraham was actually Liston's illegitimate child!
"Bang" The bell of the game rings!
As soon as the fight began, Abraham in the ring attacked!
And the expression on his face did change!
His lips opened slightly, revealing his white tooth trays, and his eyes narrowed slightly, bursting with bloodthirsty light, as if he had suddenly turned into a large predatory beast!
Chen Jun was startled by Abraham's sudden expression, and then he heard a low roar, and Abraham pounced on him.
As soon as he shot, it was a left hook, sharp as a knife, as fast as electricity, and its lethality was not weaker than Wang Lei and Tyson's left hook.
Chen Jun's reaction was a line slower, and he was hit on the cheek by Abraham's left hook punch, and he smashed a long hole raw!
As soon as I came, I was injured!
Seeing that half of Chen Jun's face was covered in blood, Wang Lei's heart couldn't help but tighten. (To be continued.) )
