Chapter 238: The Battle of the First Movement
In Thailand, a plane landed.
Zheng Tiequan got off the plane, followed by five children.
The three children were about fourteen or fifteen years old, and all of them were dark-skinned.
Three men and two women looked around curiously.
It was their first time abroad.
"Follow Coach Zheng, let's go to the hotel to stay in a while, and get ready to start training immediately, do you know? This competition is a stand-up Muay Thai rule, and you don't have many such events, although you have gone through intensive training, you still have to practice. ”
Another coach followed and shouted at them.
These five children are the first batch of children selected in Xiao Yong's donation school.
I got the opportunity to go abroad for training.
Zheng Tiequan also has some connections in Thailand, contacted the junior group of events, and qualified for the competition.
As for him, because he couldn't provide much help to Xiao Yong's current training, he simply brought these children to the competition in person and gave on-the-spot guidance.
Some people are destined to climb up from the bottom.
In the hotel, the children were munching on food they had never eaten before.
Look at the crowds coming and going.
It was as if the door to a new world had been opened.
For them, a life-changing opportunity is just around the corner.
These children, compared to the children of Shanhe Boxing Gym, are more sensitive to environmental changes brought about by material changes.
They have endured hardships and have a stronger desire for money and a better life.
Feeling the ambition of these newborn calves, Zheng Tiequan smiled slightly.
Success or failure, no one can guarantee.
But if they can't go down this road, they can only rely on themselves.
As he grows old, he's really happy to see these new generations go their own way and be able to be a leader, as an old man who loves mixed martial arts.
The reason why they are brought here to participate in Muay Thai events is also very simple, the intensity of the domestic junior competition is a little too low, and competing with these Thai children who have also grown up at the bottom can stimulate their potential even more.
Wu Xingna is a reporter from Huaxia Fighting Magazine, and this time, she is on a business trip to Bangkok.
The main thing is to report on the gap between domestic and foreign youth events.
Now with the rise of Xiao Yong, combat sports are getting more and more attention.
But at the end of the day, there are still relatively few fighters who can make a difference.
Therefore, it is inevitable to pay attention to the general environment of fighting.
The scene was already crowded, but fortunately she had already arrived at the filming area near the rope.
She kept filming the audience, and soon, as the fighters entered, Wu Xingna suddenly saw a familiar figure.
Zheng Tiequan!
You must know that because Zheng Tiequan has become Xiao Yong's coach, his popularity has also risen, and many people know him.
In particular, he is also responsible for the operation and management of Shanhe Boxing Gym.
So in front of the public, he is also a well-known figure.
"Why is he here? The children at Shanhe Boxing Gym haven't heard that they are coming to the competition! Wu Xingna's heart was full of curiosity.
Now the first batch of children with excellent results in the junior group of Shanhe Boxing Gym also have a lot of popularity and many fans on the Internet.
Compared with Xiao Yong, who doesn't publish works very much, it is also very interesting for the audience to watch these children grow up and train.
Wu Xingna also paid attention to those children, and no one said that they had any intention of competing.
You know, don't look at this as a competition in the junior group, the attention is almost no in China, but the intensity is not low, and it definitely doesn't mean that you can just pull a child out to compete.
She thought about it and didn't go over, but took a few photos first.
Soon, the game began.
Because the event is relatively not so formal, the four rings in the arena are competing at the same time.
After two fights, there was a scene of two Chinese children on stage together.
Zheng Tiequan and the other coach came to the sidelines to give guidance.
Until this time, Wu Xingna took the opportunity to run to the player's rest area.
"Hello." She smiled and said hello.
The children were stunned, and a female voice asked, "This sister, what are you going to do?" ”
"I'm a reporter, I see that you have just finished the game, and I want to ask you a few questions."
The children were a little dazed, they didn't know how to deal with this situation, after all, Zheng Tiequan didn't expect that there would be media reporters to watch this kind of foreign youth tournament that had no attention.
Naturally, children will not be told what to pay attention to.
Seeing that the children didn't speak, Wu Xingna squatted down and asked, "Are you a fighter from Shanhe Boxing Gym?"
To her surprise, all the children shook their heads.
"And which gym are you from?"
The children still shook their heads.
"Martial arts?"
"I'm from Xiaoshantun Middle School in Qilin Village, Northwest China."
"I am from Huangjiadian Primary and Secondary School in Yong'an Village, Northwest China."
"I am..."
One by one, the children still reported their own homes.
Hearing these names, Wu Xingna was completely stunned.
The children were from different schools.
"Then how did you come to the game?"
"Because a few of us performed better in the tryouts...."
As soon as the conversation box was opened, she naturally couldn't hold it back, and soon, Wu Xingna got what she wanted to know.
It's just that these things are completely unexpected.
These children are all from the suddenly built Cuntun Primary and Secondary School, and in addition to providing three meals, they will also undergo physical selection and combat training.
And will also bring them out to the game?
Why is there no movement at all in the country?
Who exactly is running these events? Shanhe Boxing Gym?
So what is the relationship between these schools and Shanhe Boxing Gym?
What role did Zheng Tiequan play?
"Who's that guy?"
"Coach Zheng, we don't know what he does, but this time he took us to the training camp and led us out to compete..."
While he was talking, a game had ended, and with the victory of the child, Zheng Tiequan raised his fist and roared by the rope, cheering for the child excitedly.
"Good fight! Especially the final combo combo! The power and precision are good! ”
Holding the child who walked off the ring, Zheng Tiequan was very happy!
Suddenly, he noticed Wu Xingna.
He frowned, and quickly led the child back.
"Who are you? Why are you? ”
Zheng Tiequan asked.
Wu Xingna was taken aback, turned back and brushed her hair, and said with a smile: "Hello Coach Zheng, I'm a reporter from Fighting Nova magazine, I'm curious, why are you leading the children to compete here?" These kids, it doesn't seem like they're the kids of the Shanhe Boxing Gym, and they're all kids from the Northwest Mountains, so I hope you can take my interview and explain the ins and outs of the matter. ”
Zheng Tiequan frowned.
You must know that Xiao Yong's donation to the school has always been kept secret.
I never thought about doing some publicity.
This time, he really didn't expect that there would be domestic reporters on the scene of this unpaid event.
"I'm sorry, I was just temporarily invited by a friend to help them strengthen their training and bring them to experience foreign competitions, I don't know anything else."
Zheng Tiequan naturally wouldn't tell the truth to Wu Xingna.
I simply refused.
Wu Xingna was immediately displeased, she didn't believe this at all.
She always felt that there was something greasy in this.
"Coach Zheng, will you give me a chance to interview you?"
Zheng Tiequan said with a cold face: "I'm sorry, I don't accept interviews, and our fighters don't accept any interviews, you can go!" ”
As he spoke, he began to drive people away, and Wu Xingna's angry silver teeth bited straight out.
But there was no choice but to return to the reporter's shooting area.
Zheng Tiequan couldn't control the filming of the subsequent competition, so he could only let her.
The game continued, and these kids, all the way through.
At the end of the first day, several children made it to the quarterfinals.
The finals are held three days later, and they are also played directly at one time.
Amateur competitions are like this, the frequency of the competition is fast, and the time for the players to rest and adjust is relatively short.
In this kind of game, it is impossible to say that it is played game by game, so that no one watches it at all.
Zheng Tiequan also took the children to compete and train as usual.
Wu Xingna came to inquire several times, but the final result was the same.
Because Zheng Tiequan also knew that she didn't have any effective evidence at all.
The children also don't know who donated to the school.
In the end, the children won the men's and women's championships and won some prize money, which was completely unexpected by the organizers.
But after all, it's just an amateur event.
Won't say what attention it has caused.
As soon as Wu Xingna returned to China, she began to compile the manuscript.
I just thought about it, but found that the materials at hand were simply not enough.
According to Zheng Tiequan, it's just that he is doing his friend a favor, but the organizer of the event and the school are not clear.
After thinking about it, Wu Xingna made a decision!
Abandon the report for now!
That's right, she's going to dig deeper! Until we find out what the hell is going on!
She also has clues, at least she remembers the name of the school.
On the other hand, Xiao Yong is preparing for war wholeheartedly.
He will never relax, and his opponent is the unified champion of the four major boxing organizations, and his strength should not be underestimated.
So a lot of things have to be done by others.
As with the match with Mayweather, before this match, Hoya also began to take Xiao Yong and Alvarez to promote wildly.
In the process, Hoya and Alvarez also half-truths and half-truths began to spray each other again.
Expose each other.
At first, maybe it was because they wanted heat, but later the two of them sprayed around, and they really spewed real fire!
Hoya angrily denounced Alvarez as a traitor, and Alvarez said that Hoya was not a good talker.
Hoya talked about bringing him to his debut, and Alvarez said that Hoya exploited.
These two people have their own reasons, and the quarrel is turned upside down.
However, this kind of thing has to be divided into how to say it, so many years of cooperation, in fact, there are inevitably some misunderstandings and contradictions, but Huo Ya does have the grace of knowing Alvarez, of course, Alvarez really made money for Hoya.
So each side has its own position.
But the crazy confrontation between the two has filled the attention of the event.
As far as the audience is concerned, it is natural that the more grievances there are, the better, and the more interesting the better, the grievances between Hoya and Alvarez are still real and not mixed with any water, so the audience is also very concerned about this game.
They are also very concerned about Xiao Yong, this time when he faces a boxing champion who is at his peak, and dominates the four major boxing organizations, and has unparalleled dominance, can he still win?
This sparked a heated debate.
Fans have their own opinions, and everyone has their support.
But a number of boxing celebrities, including Tyson, are still optimistic about Alvarez this time.
They, like those boxing fans, have a deep love for boxing.
Xiao Yong's victory over Mayweather did shatter some people's glasses.
But if he can defeat Alvarez, that's something most people don't want to believe.
Mayweather also stood up and expressed his attitude of being optimistic about Xiao Yong: "Xiao Yong will definitely lose to Alvarez, although Xiao Yong won against me, it was only because I was no longer at the top." Alvarez may only be my underdog, but he is the current leader of the super middleweight division, and Xiao Yong will definitely lose. ”
Obviously, Mayweather has always been haunted by his loss to Xiao Yong.
To be honest, Mayweather actually takes his winning record very seriously.
Although his match with Xiao Yong did not record his professional record, there is no doubt that he lost to Xiao Yong.
This matter can never be avoided.
Not to mention anything else, just under his social media, a large number of sunspots mock him about this matter every day.
So Mayweather is still looking forward to Alvarez being able to beat Xiao Yong.
After all, Alvarez's only defeat in his career was given by him, although Alvarez was still immature at that time, but Mayweather knew very well that the audience would not care so much.
As long as Alvarez wins against Xiao Yong, his face will look better.
Compared with Alvarez's side, which has received comprehensive support, Xiao Yong's supporters are few.
Basically, when the UFC celebrities were asked about this, they basically said some ambiguous answers.
Most of them choose to say that both of them have opportunities, and they will not support one person with certainty.
They weren't optimistic about Xiao Yong, they just didn't want to offend mixed martial arts fans.
The difficulty of boxing is well known to all UFC fighters.
Defeating a retired fighter is definitely not difficult to defeat a peak ruler.
However, there are also some people who support Xiao Yong.
For example, Conor McGregor, although he doesn't like Xiao Yong, but when asked about this question, he made it clear: "I think Xiao Yong's bastard should win the game, although I hate her, but you can also see, he is a crazy guy, he has won a lot of people, including Mayweather, I know very well, Mayweather that guy is definitely not an old waste, although it seems that Alvarez is stronger now, but Xiao Yong has created too many miracles, I am optimistic about that guy!" And I'm going to bet $100,000! ”
In addition to Connor, Habib also expressed his support for Xiao Yong.
"He's a brave fighter, a strong fighter, he's done something that a lot of people haven't done, and I think he should win the fight, and I'll be there and I'll be there."
In addition to the two of them, Kevin Lee and Ferguson, who are now in the Dragon Showdown, expressed their support for Xiao Yong.
But as the topic unfolds, the audience has also begun to spray wildly.
Boxing vs MMA.
With the rise of mixed martial arts, comparisons between the two sports are inevitable.
In the past, fans talked about the most expensive appearance fees for boxers than mixed martial arts fighters.
But Xiao Yong's appearance fee in this game completely crushed Alvarez.
On major forums, the noise is in full swing.
"Haha, MMA dogs, look at it, no one is optimistic about your Huaxia Yama at all! He'll be beaten to death by Alvarez! ”
"Die, boxing dogs, go to hell with your stupid rules, Xiao Yong has already received the appearance fee of the world's number one, and he also defeated your all-winning boxing champion Mayweather."
"So what, as we all know, only those who can't play talent and can't boxing will fight MMA!"
"Fart, sit back and wait for Xiao Yong to smash that Alvarez."
I have to say that this has become a battle of dignity for fans of the two sports.
It's like Dota and LoL.
It's not uncommon for players to spray each other.
You complain that I am not difficult, and I complain that you are not hot enough.
There will always be pros and cons.
This match is regarded by fans of both sides as the first sport in fighting!
If an MMA fighter really defeats the boxing champion of the four major boxing organizations, it is simply terrible.
