Chapter 117 Physical Examination

When he went out this time, Zhou Zhen had an extra driver and bodyguard by his side.

School opened, Zhou Tai went to the United States this time, and he had to stay for at least three months, if nothing else, let him practice his spoken English as soon as possible.

Now he can't be a qualified assistant, let alone be a professional or not.

However, Zhou Zhen is willing to ask for this cousin who can shoot and kill people for him, and there is only this one in this world who can do this for him.

There are many big people, it seems that there are five people and six people, and how many people can really be trusted?

Arriving in Los Angeles at noon on March 3, Hoya personally came to the airport to pick him up, and the first thing he asked was, "Are you ready to be famous?" ”

Zhou Zhen smiled: "I will conquer the world according to the predetermined rhythm." ”

Hoya laughed. "I'm looking forward to the day when you collect and play all the boxing championship belts organized by the four major tournaments. Have all the visas been issued? ”

Meng Lei nodded and said, "It's all done." ”

Zhou Zhen is registered in China, whether he goes to the UK or Austria, he needs to apply for a visa first, which is still more troublesome.

Now Zhou Zhen uses the identity of a boxer of the Golden Boy Agency to apply for a visa, which can save a lot of review, but he also has to run next to the consulate.

Meng Lei's assistant is still very useful, she brought Zhou Zhen's information and foreign invitation letters, and she didn't use Zhou Zhen to come forward, so she handled the visas of several countries.

"Okay, let's go to Atlantic City tonight, have a medical examination tomorrow, and then go to London for a medical examination the day after tomorrow, and then we can wait for the boxing championship on the 16th."

On March 16th, an intercontinental boxing championship will be held at the Bailey Casino here.

Zhou Zhen's first game was just a cushion game, and the appearance fee was only $8,000.

If you can win, you can get an extra $2,000.

No matter how it is promoted, the boxing world is different from the entertainment industry, and it must rely on strength to speak.

He had to play three Advance matches to qualify for the WBO qualifying tournament.

Registration should be done one month in advance, and then two weeks in advance, for weight tests, blood tests, and urine tests.

March 4 is already the penultimate day, and if it is too late, you will have to register for the next stage of the event.

Of course, whether you can participate or not depends mainly on the energy of the promoter.

Like his promoter Huo Ya, he was a famous boxer when he was boxing, and he was very shrewd.

After retiring, he formed the Golden Boy Promotion Company, whose shareholders included well-known people such as Rizzo.

Rizzo is the first vice president of the WBO Asia Pacific region, a high-level person, and his energy is not small.

Zhou Zhen is now participating in the mat race, which is a matter of words to him.

Connecting directly from Los Angeles, in the evening, arrived in Atlantic City on the east coast.

This gambling city, which is second only to Las Vegas in the United States, is not well-known in China, and it has been losing money in recent years, but the scenery and prosperity here are still very outstanding.

One of Big Mouth's biggest properties, the Taj Mahal Casino, is right on the city's sandy beaches.

However, Zhou Zhen didn't have time to appreciate the atmosphere this time, so he arrived in Atlantic City in the evening, met with the other fighters under Hoya's team at the training gym, and began to have a meeting.

Although the Golden Boy Promotion Company is very large, it is not having a good time today.

Sheffield, one of the company's previous four partners, and Hoya and Rizzo parted ways and took many fighters with them.

Today, the company's biggest boxing champion is Alvarez.

Of course, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and now the company still has nearly 100 fighters, but only a few have won the title of boxing champion.

Zhou Zhen met with them, learned from each other, set an example, and when they met in the boxing ring in the future, they could also play fake boxing.

Fake boxing is very common in the boxing ring, and fighters from the same company, for the sake of results, will make some strategic adjustments to their opponents.

Zhou Zhen is actually very easy to accept this situation, and he is also very satisfied with the current situation of the company, the fewer boxing champions, the more resources he can get.

Early the next morning, before Zhou Zhen had already reversed the jet lag, he participated in various tests, mainly weight measurement and doping tests.

Zhou Zhen never touched those things, and it can be said that no boxer was as "clean" as him, because he had not even taken any medicine.

After the test, Zhou Zhen left for London that night, but this time only Huo Ya and his assistants, Zhou Zhen and Meng Lei.

Zhou Tai was left behind by him in Atlantic City, working with the rest of the staff and practicing his spoken English.

Zhou Tai's English will only be the simplest, but he has a foundation, and after a few months of oral exercise, there should be no problem in ordinary communication in the future.

London is a lightweight boxing championship, and Zhou Zhen is still a supporting role, and the appearance fee is 2,000 lower than that of Atlantic City.

If it weren't for the organization to charter a round-trip ticket for three people and stay for three days of the game, it would not be worth money.

Even so, if you come for a medical check-up like this, you spend your own money.

Many fighters can't afford to fight, not because of their poor strength, but because they don't have the money to sign up or take a plane.

A boxer needs at least two coaches, and daily training, diet, and everything costs money.

Without a company, few unfamous fighters can afford to spend this money.

With a company, you have to be exploited by the company, and there are various assessments, which is even more stressful.

Zhou Zhen is different, his current strength is almost invincible, and he originally needed a coach to teach the rules, but after laughing at the world, he chose to strengthen his boxing experience, and now he doesn't even need a coach.

Huo Ya was afraid that Zhou Zhen's diet, work and rest, and training were not standard at first, but after watching Zhou Zhen's strength a few times, he stopped talking.

Now he only asks Zhou Zhen to hide his strength and make the game more exciting, rather than a direct crushing victory.

And Zhou Zhen's weight has not changed no matter how much he eats, it has always been eighty-five kilograms, and it will not rise or fall.

Because his body shape has been systematically adjusted, there will be no change for at least twenty years.

He weighs 85 kilograms and belongs to the third class of professional boxers, which is light heavyweight.

There are some world-class names in the division, but not the best fighters.

In terms of might, this division is not as good as heavyweight, in terms of fighting is exciting, and flexible is not as good as middleweight.

So, this level is a bit up and down.

However, Zhou Zhen doesn't care, his purpose is to get the WBO boxing championship belt first, and then unify the four major boxing champions of this level of competition, and then start to challenge the welterweight division, and after unifying the welterweight division, he will really challenge the heavyweight boxing champion.

It's a little slower to get to the top this way, but the race is money!

It's really going to be invincible directly, of course, everyone praises it, but no one competes with you, where will the money come from?

According to the plan made by Huo Ya's accountants, if Zhou Zhen can get twelve belts and monopolize the boxing title, it will take at least eight years.

Then monopolize the title of boxing champion for a few years, as long as it is done step by step, according to the plan, the competition revenue alone can exceed three billion dollars.

And these three billion dollars are net income.

If he doesn't keep it at all, he will be knocked out if he comes to power, and he won't even earn $300 million.

For the sake of money, Zhou Zhen was also willing to be weaker, and even deliberately took a few punches.

Only then will someone want to watch it.

The medical check-up process in London is the same as in Atlantic City, but it is done in a general hospital.

He had physical examinations in two countries for two consecutive days, and each physical examination report, urine sample, and blood sample would be divided into two parts, and Zhou Zhen was not afraid that someone would secretly make a ghost.

Boxing is darker, much darker than football, basketball, swimming.

There are still international rules for those competitions, and in boxing, it depends more on who is more powerful.

Those boxing promoters are all black and white, like Don King, Bob Arrum, all of them are very black.

Their story is similar to the rise of the gang boss and the history of their origins.

While in London, Zhou Zhen met Alvarez, who is currently recovering from drugs, and he is now the biggest boxer of the Golden Boy Promotion Company.

He actually has a conflict of interest with Zhou Zhen, because he is now a super welterweight champion, and as long as he develops further, he will be in the same division as Zhou Zhen and compete.

This meeting was also specially arranged by Huo Ya, wanting to avoid internal friction and conflict in the development of the two from the beginning.

Alvarez is a Mexican national and a handsome white guy, and because of his appearance, he is known as the successor to the golden boy.

When Hoya was at his peak, he was hailed as a boxer greater than Tyson in the local media in the United States.

For many years in a row, his income has been at the forefront of the world boxing scene.

And he was humble, friendly, frugal, possessed high personal qualities and excellent morals, and was a true American icon.

Alvarez was once hailed as the successor to the golden boy, and whites are more admired in boxing than blacks. But now he is in deep crisis because of sucking grass.

In recent times, Golden Boy has been in crisis PR.

Zhou Zhen played a closed friendly match with him at a club in London, and his ferocious punches did not pose any threat to Zhou Zhen at all.

His skills are relatively rough in the boxing world, and he has no unique skills, and his victory often relies on heavy punches.

In front of Zhou Zhen, he deeply realized what despair is.

After the fight, he lowered his profile and agreed to Hoya's offer to let him play in the super welterweight division for another two years.

If he wants to cross up, after entering the light heavyweight division, he will have to compete with Zhou Zhen.

Now that he realizes the gap, of course he can only accept his fate, and he is not an iron head.

Zhou Zhen won't be delayed in the light heavyweight division for too long, two years is almost enough time for him to sweep away opponents in this division and then move into the welterweight division, and at that time, Alvarez will not be too late to enter the light heavyweight division.

After completing the physical examination in London on the 5th, Zhou Zhen and Huo Ya were temporarily separated.

Hoya is going back to the United States to oversee the training of his fighters and arrange the tactics of the fight.

And Zhou Zhen is also going to Austria to participate in the filming of Running Man.

Anyway, he's quite excited......
