Chapter 501: United War Crowns the King! Quadruple Crown! Double king!
Under the bottom post, Lewis's coach, Beal, is laying out his second-round strategy.
"Lennox, you can't just defend, your effective striking is far behind him, you have to take the initiative and look for a knockout with heavy punches."
"Forced him into defense with back-to-back jabs and then landed a backhand punch combo. The jab should be real and false, so that he can be better controlled. β
"His dodging skills are so good, he uses more hooks in his back hand punches, and pays attention to the amount of advance."
On the ESPN commentary seat, Leo Filton sighed: "Iron Michael's temper is really too dry, if he has more control and self-discipline, he will achieve far higher achievements than now, and even have a chance to become a quadruple champion and truly dominate the heavyweight boxing world." β
Rick Pierce nodded, "His last few years of peak fitness were wasted in prison, and it was because of his poor self-discipline that he was sent to prison. β
"Just now the Iron Fist King showed us his god-level dodge, and Lewis only got two effective blows on him in the first round, hitting the chest and abdomen that didn't hurt much, and it wasn't a heavy blow, and he hit the opponent six times," Leo Filton said. β
"He has so much control over the space that every dodge grazes against his skin, and I think it's a hair's length," Rick Pierce said. β
"Maybe two."
"Haha!"
The two of them laughed as they spoke.
"Dang!"
That's when the bell rings.
Lewis had a thick layer of petroleum jelly on his left cheekbone, and the uncovered piece of skin had been cut off. The right side of the face was also hit once, with some redness, and the rest was fine.
Zhou Quan had no external injuries.
βBoxοΌβ
The referee gave an order, and the second round officially began.
"Whew!"
Lewis threw a jab first.
But this is a false blow, and the point is to connect the back hand to the heavy swing faster, fast and fierce, and to catch Zhou Quan off guard.
It's a pity that Zhou Quan's reaction speed was too fast, and he didn't use the hugging frame to carry the jab, but still responded with dodge, and two god-level dodges in a row, allowing Lewis's two consecutive strikes to hit the air one after another.
Then reacted quickly, approached with a hug, slid forward, grabbed a foot, and entered the inside rim while landing a left flat hook to Lewis's right temple.
"Shoot the air! Shoot the air! β
On the ESPN commentary seat, Leo Filton shouted continuously.
Lewis has the reach advantage, and by the time Zhou was on the grab, his hug had been re-established, and the gap after the shot didn't allow Zhou to catch it.
"Fight back!"
Rick Pierce snorted.
"Bang!"
When Zhou Quan's left hook hit, Lewis's right frame immediately blocked it.
But Zhou Quan hit an extremely ferocious combo, and it was a triple hit.
In the triple hit, the purpose of the first punch is to attract the opponent's defensive attention, which is a false blow and is not heavy, which makes the connection speed of the next two combos particularly fast.
In the first punch, when the left fist hit the opponent's right frame, he immediately twisted his waist left and right and swung his arms in succession, and within a fifth of a second, he continuously threw a right diagonal hook, as well as a left uppercut, and in a third of a second, he completed a triple strike.
"Bang! Boom! Boom! β
The triple strike was almost instantaneous, and the sound of the three strikes was almost superimposed.
With an instinctive defensive reaction, Lewis moved down on the left frame and parried Zhou Quan's second punch, but the third punch was not held, too fast.
The right frame had just moved up to block Zhou Quan's first punch left flat uppercut, and before he could move down to reset, he was directly penetrated by Zhou Quan's left uppercut.
Fortunately, his nervous reaction speed is also very fast, not as fast as Zhou Quan, but it is definitely also a first-class reaction speed, which is one of the reasons why he is known as the most perfect boxing champion today.
Tilting his head extremely quickly, Zhou Quan punched the right side of his mandible, but did not hit the middle of the chin.
"Buzz!"
But even if it didn't hit the jaw completely, the moment of the middle punch, it also formed an impact force that went down the mandible to the cerebellum, and the concussion was instantaneous.
"Not good!"
Fortunately, the jaw was not straightened, the impact was not too strong, the vertigo was not too strong, and Lewis was not completely out of balance.
He immediately contracted his body, reduced his defensive area, and doubled his head to get into the defensive position while stepping back sharply on his feet in an attempt to get rid of the Iron Fist King.
Zhou Quan took a deep breath and rushed forward quickly, while opening up the offensive posture with both fists.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
After Zhou Quan strode to catch up with Lewis, he immediately began to combine punches, left hook followed by right diagonal hook, left flat hook to right pendulum, then left uppercut and right flat uppercut, and hit his opponent's left cheek and right rib with heavy punches in succession, forcing Lewis directly into a bottom corner.
"Is the lion finished?" Leo Filton shouted.
"Oooh oh ......"
At this time, a huge shout sounded, and tens of thousands of people raised their arms and cheered, and the extremely strong hormonal breath made up for it in the stadium of the MGM Hotel.
"Get rid of him! Hurry up and get rid of him! β
Lewis's coach roared, and an assistant had a prepared white towel in his hand, but the hand holding the white towel was pressed by the coach.
βKOοΌ KOβ¦β¦β
On Zhou Quan's side, the people who supported him shouted loudly.
After three heavy blows in a row, Lewis was a little stunned, the vertigo in his brain intensified again, and after retreating to the bottom corner, he leaned down against the bottom pillar and almost crouched on the ground.
Zhou didn't stop attacking, and after a set of combinations, he did a brief breath before landing another combination.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Three more punches, Lewis was hit in the right temple, and under a series of heavy punches, his reaction finally couldn't keep up, and the huddle finally couldn't keep up with the rhythm of Zhou Quan's combination punches.
"Bang bang!"
The right flat hook violently bombarded Lewis's left temple, and under the impact of the powerful blow force, Lewis's hugging was completely scattered, and in the next moment, Zhou Quan twisted his waist and raised his arms.
"Left uptick!"
Rick Pierce shouted.
"Bang!"
The moment he punched his chin, Lewis's head jerked back, saliva and toothguards thrown straight into the air, and his back hit the guardrail.
βStopοΌβ
In the midst of the loud cheers, the Taiwan referee rushed forward and pushed Zhou Quan away.
"Oh roar!"
Under the adrenaline surge, more than 20,000 people instantly raised their arms and shouted, and the shouts of MGM Stadium reached the highest level.
βKOοΌ KOοΌ KOβ¦β¦β
"The lion is down, down! Tekken knocked out Lewis! In the 8th second of the second round and the 188th second of the whole game, the Iron Fist King knocked out Lewis with a heavy punch! He completed the unification battle, he was a four-time champion, the unification king of the world......"
On the ESPN commentary bench, the roars of Leo Filton and Rick Pierce resounded across the United States.
"Ahh
Zhou Quan stepped back to the neutral corner, his eyes fixed on Lewis on the edge of the ring opposite, and after seeing that he was not struggling at all, he turned sharply, smashed his fists on the guardrail, and then shouted at countless fans.
"Boom!"
At this moment, like a volcanic eruption, the entire gymnasium was completely boiling.
"Iron Fist! Tekken! Tekken ......"
"Unification King! Unification King! Unification of the King ......"
"Quadruple Crown! Quadruple Crown! Quadruple Champion ......"
The roar of the mountains and the tsunami, at this moment, Zhou Quan gained the admiration from the scene and countless fans around the world.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The moment the referee raised his right hand, he felt the stronger and more powerful beating of his heart.
"Congratulations to the host for completing side quest 1, rewarding 100% improvement in heart function."
"Due to the 100% improvement in heart function, the physical fitness has been improved by one level, and it is now level 98."

After completing the unification battle of the four major heavyweight organizations, Zhou Quan's prestige in the sports world has truly reached its peak, and he does not think about it as a second person.
He has a side mission next, the 2000 Olympic champion.
With a group of guys who even dare to lose the Korean team to compete for the Olympic championship, this difficulty is not ordinary, and he is not sure at all.
If he can't complete the task, either the system will run away, or he will have to play basketball in the future.
Although there are not many tasks in the system, especially after completing the dynasty, there may not be any tasks, but if there are tasks, the rewards should also be good, such as the rewards of these two side quests, which are stronger than anything else, and he doesn't want the system to run away.
Fortunately, the three super centers in the NBA are old, O'Neal is very lazy, the probability of participating in the 2000 Olympic Games is not very high, and the disadvantage of the men's basketball team on the inside should not be as big as before, there are still more or less opportunities, and he is not desperate.

On June 12, 1998, the Bulls defeated the Jazz on the road, won the G6 game, won the finals with a score of 4-2, and won the team's fourth championship.
Flyer Michael Jordan also won his fourth championship, tied with Zhou Quan in terms of the number of championships. But in terms of quality, Zhou Quan has a dynasty with three consecutive crowns, but it is inferior to Zhou Quan.
After the failure to win the championship, Charles Barkley was so disappointed that he cried on the spot, kneeling on the floor and covering his face and crying bitterly.
On the NBC commentary bench, at the end of the game, the commentator Elgin Baylor sighed: "Six finals, the average rating is 8.02 million, last year's championship was 42.45 million, and this year is only one-fifth of last year."
If last year's finals were not counted without the G3 battle without Iron Fist, the average viewership would be as high as 51.25 million, alas! β
Oscar Robertson said in a begging tone: "Iron Fist King, come back quickly, Jordan can still fight, and there will be another ultimate king showdown." β
With the Bulls winning the championship, a losing season in the NBA league is over, but the league still has a lot of troubles.
Labor negotiations, league sponsors have run away, many NCAA talented young people have publicly stated that they will not participate in the NBA league draft, and next season's predictable bleakness has gradually made a voice louder.
The Smiling Assassin spoke to the media as the Raptors' deputy head of basketball affairs, saying, "We should bring back the Iron Fist King, only he can save this league." β
"Iron Fist must be brought back, he is the only Cavalier to save the NBA." Predator Pat Riley said.
N many NBA league people have publicly stated that they hope Zhou Quan will return to the league.
But at this time, Zhou Quan and Zeng Li had already returned to China.
Fine coffee has embarked on the road of expansion, Zeng Lifu does not have the ability to manage, and it is handed over to professional managers to manage, and he only grasps the personnel and financial rights.
In the three months from March to mid-June, the market value of Fine Coffee rose from $2.6 billion on the day of listing to $3.5 billion now, and the stock rose from $21.56 to $29.2 from the closing price on the day of listing.
On June 28, Zhou Quan received a phone call from Bezos.
Bezos told him that he was planning to sell some of his Amazon stock and cash it out.
"Jeff, the company is doing well, why are you cashing out?"
He doesn't quite understand what Bezos plans to do, although the company's stock price has doubled since it was listed, but the company has not actually entered the profit stage, does Bezos not have confidence in the company's development?
"Iron Fist, I'm going to cash out some of my cash and try other investments. I'm not you, you have a lot of cash, I don't. Bezos said.
"For no other reason?" He asked.
"Of course not." Bezos said.
"Okay, you control nearly forty percent of the shares, and you can cash out some of them." He said.
"In addition, Iron Fist, the company will be doing a split in the near future, one split in two. When will you come back, I need to have a board meeting. Bezos said.
"I'll support your decision, so don't wait for me, I'll authorize people to sit on the board." He said.
βOKγβ
On July 8, Amazon Inc. split its stock for the first time, and Zhouquan's 8.5 million shares became 17 million shares, but with the split, the stock price also discounted.
On July 12th, Microsoft carried out another split, but not the last one-split, this time it was one-split-three.
Zhou Quan owned two million shares of Microsoft, which became six million shares after the split.
At this time, Apple's stock had fallen to $0.97, and after Zhou Quan considered it, he asked the stockbroker to help him cover the position.
Last time, I invested 10 million US dollars, invested 60,000 lots, bought 1.6 US dollars, and now I have lost 4 million US dollars.
He replenished $20 million in goods, replenished 200,000 lots, and owned a total of 26 million shares, plus expenses, the average price fell to $1.1 per share, and he was still in a floating loss.
He made this investment, not in Apple, but in Jobs, the founder of Apple, just as he invested in Amazon, and invested in Bezos.
Mr. Jobs returned to Apple last year, and he hoped that the computer industry icon would do something more.
A superlative figure of his time, not very old, not old, is very likely, and it is worth his investment.
But it's $30 million, no matter what happens to Apple, this is the last investment, and it won't continue to be invested.
