185 [Boxing Agent]
The double crushing of physical fitness and skill can produce a species-level gap.
Abe soon felt the terrible disparity — he was weak and clumsy like a groundhog challenging a lion.
In just a few back and forth, Ma Whistle easily dodged almost all of his punches, and then responded with an irresistible thump.
A punch the size of a punching bag could have hit Abe's head, but Ma Whistle didn't want to kill anyone, so he retracted some force and changed his position.
"Bang!"
He punched Abe in the chest.
Although he has taken control of the power, such a punch is still unbearable for Abe.
So with just one punch, Abe was knocked to the ground, clutching his chest and having trouble breathing.
Half an hour passed, and although he got up, it was obvious that he could not fight again.
"I thought it was going to be a fight." Ma Whistle said lightly, his suit was as neat as ever.
From Abe's attack to being knocked down with a punch, it took less than half a minute.
Before many people could react, Abe, who was still fierce and vicious, had already collapsed on the ground without dignity.
The white men who were traveling with Abe all widened their eyes in shock, unable to believe the scene in front of them: "This-"
Dr. Mayo was also surprised, he was unaware of the various combat training that Ma Sentry organized in the army.
After some exchanges with the horse whistle in the British academic circles, he subconsciously developed some stereotypes, and rarely thought that the horse whistle might have amazing combat effectiveness.
After all, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, there seems to be some conflict between the two identities of scientists and martial artists.
As an Apache soldier who had been following the horse whistle for a long time, Ranfa naturally expected this, so he smiled at the surprised Dr. Mayo: "This kind of indiscriminate goods, ten is not enough for the big chieftain to fight!" ”
Sebastian said: "Such ruffians are not worth mentioning, and only fighters who have won the gold belt are worthy of challenging the Great Chief." ”
"Let's go." Ma Whistle looked at Abe, who was a little unwilling but didn't dare to say anything, hesitated for a moment, and finally said.
They turned and left.
Several of Abe's companions gathered around, and someone asked, "Why did you lose so quickly?" Did you miss it? ”
Abe lowered his head and said for a long time: "I didn't miss, it's because he is too strong......"
"How strong is he?" At this time, the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes who had a somewhat unusual painting style among several people said.
Abe looked up at him: "I don't know." But you can see, Gideon, my fist won't hurt him even if he doesn't dodge it, and he only needs one punch to knock me to the ground. ”
Gideon was silent for a moment, then looked in the direction where the sentry had left, hesitated for a moment, and then followed......
About half an hour later.
The entrance of the bookstore.
"John Gideon?" Horse Whistle looked at the person in front of him, "What did you just say you are?" ”
"Professional Broker." Gideon said, then emphasized, "The kind that's specifically for boxers." ”
Ma Whistle: "Is that Abe your customer?" ”
"Sort of." Gideon nodded.
Mayo said at this time: "Do professional agents who serve boxers also serve gamblers?" ”
Gideon was a little embarrassed, but said, "That's right in a way. That's what we do, we find potential boxers, get them to take part in the challenge, and get the audience to place bets. ”
Ma Whistle asked again: "So you came to me with me, thinking that I am a potential boxer?" ”
"Nope." Gideon's answer was a surprise, and then he added, "In my opinion, your potential is not a fighter, but a ...... Champ. ”
"The King of Fighters?"
"Yes, King of Fighters." Gideon said, "You're so much bigger than anyone else, it's almost unmatched, which is already a huge advantage, not to mention the incredible agility you have." Any fighter or martial artist dreams of having such a talent. ”
"I believe that with a little training and familiarity with the rules of boxing, you can definitely become a boxing champion, which can bring you a huge fortune, thousands of pounds!"
The horse whistle looked unmoved.
Gideon looked at it secretly, and felt that although Ma Whistle was a yellow man, he didn't seem to be short of money, and even looked like a big nobleman, and his entourage was all dressed decently, including two white men.
For a large aristocrat, "thousands of pounds" really did not seem very attractive.
So Gideon added: "Of course, there are honors." ”
"Is there an honor in the field of boxing?" Dr. Mayo said he seemed to have an aversion to boxing.
Gideon paused: "Boxing has received a lot of criticism at the moment, but I think the sport will get more recognition in the future. ”
He continued to say to Ma Whistle: "Think about it, Mr. Ma Whistle, if you can beat those famous fighters and become a boxing champion, all British people will know you, and the newspapers all over the world will mention your name, isn't it a great honor? Who wouldn't want to be a big man in the world? ”
The whistle pondered for a moment: "Mr. Gideon, have you heard of my name?" ”
Gideon was a little curious: "No—before today. ”
Mayo once again expressed his disdain for the sport of boxing: "People who like boxing don't pay attention to academics. ”
Gideon frowned, he didn't care about Mayo's disdain for boxing, he didn't consider himself a "boxing guy", for him, it was just a business.
He just didn't understand what it had to do with academics.
Obviously, while he doesn't think he's out of Mayo's view, he does know very little about the academic community.
Ma Whistle suddenly said, "If I want to enter the realm of boxing or martial arts, do you have any plans?" ”
Mayo couldn't help but say: "Great Chief, with all due respect, it's not a good thing to enter this realm, there are only ruffians and hooligans, no real warriors, and no heroes worthy of respect. ”
"Perhaps, but I decided to give it a try." "For me, European fame is an important need. There are people who are passionate about physics, but there are also many people who don't know anything about it, and I want not only the former to know about me, but also the latter to know about me. ”
In the process of organizing martial arts training in the army, he had the idea of entering the martial arts world more than once.
He had long realized that, just like his physics, the Apache Fist was something that was ahead of its time, and even if it wasn't crushing beyond physics, it was enough to have a huge impact in this era.
However, as Mayo said, the reputation of boxing in this era is quite poor, and even the so-called boxing champions are difficult to get into the hall of elegance.
And if you want to be famous in the field of boxing, the cost is much higher than that of being famous in the academic world, and in this chaotic circle, you may even lose your life if you are not careful.
