Almighty Coach

"Iris rejected us again? Why? Could it be that Taylor offered a higher price? This is impossible, Taylor doesn't have that much money at all." Hopkins said with a frown.

"I have inquired in detail. Not long ago, Iris's wife suffered a car accident and was paralyzed. There is a very powerful rehabilitation therapist who is very good at rehabilitation of limb paralysis, so Iris needs a A large sum of money was used for his wife's medical expenses. What's more coincident is that Taylor's current physical trainer is the rehabilitation trainer who is good at rehabilitation of limb paralysis." The agent said.

"There is such a coincidence." Hopkins couldn't help asking, "Who is Taylor's fitness coach and what is his background?"

"He is of Chinese descent. He opened a physical training center called 'Coach Li Physical Training Center'. Before Taylor came back, he trained there." The agent replied.

"Chinese-American coaches are rare. As a Chinese-American, being able to open a physical training center by himself shows that his level is still very good, and Taylor is in very good condition after his comeback. It seems that this Chinese-American really has some skills." Hopkins said casually.

"According to the information I have collected, this Chinese coach is better at track and field training. The disabled athlete who became popular not long ago, 'Blade Warrior' Philip, was trained by this Chinese coach." worked hard.

"The track and field coaches are all good physical trainers." Hopkins suddenly raised his head: "Speaking of which, our contract with the AP Physical Training Center will expire next year, right?"

"It's due next year, what's the matter? Do you want to change?" the agent asked.

"Shop around!" Hopkins nodded, and then said: "The service of the AP training center is indeed very good, and their physical coaches are relatively professional, but what if there is a better choice? A boxer, At my level, what is needed is the best coach, and if you can find a coach with 100 points, you shouldn’t need 99 points.”

...

On the big screen of the TV, clips of the Hopkins game video were played.

"This is a special edit I made from Hopkins' game video, and it is also some of the more elite places I selected." Iris pointed to the TV screen with the remote control, and asked: "We have watched How about it, what did you see?"

Taylor thought for a while, and replied: "Hopkins' technique is really good, and he is perfect in the choice of attack timing. His punches are very precise, and he can always find the opponent's space, and then Let your fist hit there, even if it's only a blink of an eye."

"What else?" Iris pressed the playback button on the remote control, and then said, "I'm talking about defense."

Taylor thought for more than ten seconds, and then answered: "Hopkins' judgment is very accurate, he can see through the opponent's offensive intention..."

"So what do you think is Hopkins' shortcoming?" Iris interrupted Taylor.

"Shortcomings..." Taylor had a hesitant expression on his face, and he said, "Hopkins is the kind of boxer who has no shortcomings at all. No matter his body, technique, or on-the-spot judgment during the match, he is perfect. To be honest , I really don't think he has any shortcomings."

"That's because your observation is not in place." Iris shook his head and pointed to the projection screen: "Look at it again, and look at it carefully again."

Taylor had no choice but to shift his gaze to the TV screen, and then stared at the picture intently, but from his expression, it could be seen that even if he watched it again, he didn't find anything new at all.

Dai Li, who was also watching the screen beside him, suddenly said, "I think Hopkins' evasive action just now seems a little different."

"Oh?" The surprise in Iris' eyes flashed, and he immediately asked, "What do you think is different?"

"Can I watch it again?" Dai Li asked.

"No problem." Iris rewound the video and replayed the scene just now.

"How is it, what do you think is different?" Iris continued to ask.

"I think Hopkins' defensive action just now seems to be deliberately protecting a certain part of his body." After speaking, Dai Li changed his voice: "I'm just guessing wildly, I don't know if it's right."

"Then where do you think Hopkins is protecting his body?" Iris asked eagerly.

"Neck? No." Dai Li shook his head self-consciously.

"Face? It doesn't look like that either." Dai Li shook his head while talking to himself, and began to simulate the action of Hopkins on the screen in his mind, and then, Dai Li finally came to a conclusion.

"It's the chin. Hopkins is deliberately protecting his chin!" Dai Li said firmly.

"Correct!" Iris couldn't help applauding Dai Li.

"Am I right?" Dai Li felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Almost at the same time, Taylor widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Did he guess right?"

"Coach Li, if I don't know you, I must think you are a very experienced boxing coach. Your observation and judgment just now are not available to many top boxing coaches." Iris began to praise without hesitation Pick up Dai Li.

"It's a coincidence, I'm lucky." Dai Li said modestly.

"No, I don't think it's luck, maybe you have talent in this area." Iris said, pointing to the screen, and then said: "Almost every boxing coach or boxer thinks that Hopkins He is a boxer without any shortcomings. Indeed, his body is tailor-made for heavyweight boxing; he has developed top boxing skills in the stage of amateur boxing; He's the best in the world, but that doesn't mean he's without flaws."

"People think that Hopkins is a perfect boxer without any flaws, it's just because they didn't find his flaws." Iris pressed the pause button to freeze the picture, and then said confidently : "Hopkins' shortcoming is his chin!"

"You mean, Hopkins' jaw is very fragile?" Taylor asked ignorantly.

"Based on the standards of the world's top heavyweight boxers, Hopkins has a fragile jaw." Iris nodded, and said in a tone that sees everything: "But Hopkins is obviously also aware Having realized his shortcoming, he will deliberately protect his chin during the game. Coach Li has already noticed this. For example, in this defensive action, his evasion action is a bit big, but from the perspective of his evasion Look, he's avoiding the chin first..."

Iris said, pressed the play button, and then explained: "In a boxing match, the chin is the most prone to KO effect, so in the actual combat of professional competitions, protecting your chin is the most basic technique for boxers. We require boxers to train the muscles of the neck and shoulders to relieve the impact on the head when they are hit by the chin. But it is also because the protection of the chin is the most basic technique for boxers, so most people will Hopkins’ evasion was a regular defensive move, so they couldn’t find Hopkins’ weakness.”

"It seems to be true." Taylor nodded: "If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have discovered this, and I thought it was just a routine defensive action."

"There are so many excellent boxing coaches in the world, but how many people can discover Hopkins' weakness!" Iris said and glanced at Li Dai, as if to say that there are so many professional boxers. It's really strange that you, an amateur physical coach, can see things that the coaches can't see.

Li Dai suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he just thought that he had encountered a dead mouse when he was blind.

Taylor did not continue to pay attention to this topic, he said: "Now that I have discovered Hopkins' shortcomings, then in the game, I just need to keep attacking his chin!"

"If that's the case, you might really not be able to win the game." Iris pouted and shook his head, as if he was an outsider.

"Why? Shouldn't you target your opponent's weaknesses in a match?" Taylor asked rhetorically.

"Hopkins is a very smart boxer, he knows how to judge the situation. If he sees you keep aiming at his chin, what do you think he will do? He will stand there and offer his chin. Let you fight?" Iris shook his index finger contemptuously, and then said:

"Physically, Hopkins is obviously more advantageous. He is nearly 20 centimeters taller than you. You attack from the bottom up, which is already on the weak side, not to mention that his wingspan is much longer than yours. 20 centimeters, right? The chin is the most important part of a boxer’s protection. Once he is on guard, especially if he is deliberately on guard, it will be very difficult for you to hit his chin.”

Hopkins, the world's top boxing champion, has an advantage in height and wingspan. If he is determined to defend and avoid being a grandson, it will be really difficult for Taylor to find a breakthrough.

"So what should I do?" Taylor asked.

"You have to pretend that you don't know Hopkins' shortcomings, paralyze him in the game, and then seize the opportunity to win by surprise." Iris's expression became more confident, and he said, "I have arranged a set for you to deal with Hopkins' tactics. At the beginning of the game, you don't deliberately attack Hopkins' jaw, you even have to deliberately test it, you have to disguise yourself, and make Hopkins feel that you are right He's a stranger."

"Then, you have to let Hopkins dare to attack. His size is more advantageous, and his skills are also top-notch. If he insists on defense, you will at most get some points advantage, which is irrelevant. So Only when Hopkins is attacking, will he show his flaws, and you will be able to seize the opportunity, aim at his chin, give him a fatal blow, and knock him down directly. This is the best way for you to win. Great way!"

Iris's tone has been high-pitched and emotional over the past month, as if he was giving a speech, more like brainwashing the pyramid schemers.

Taylor obviously liked this, with a teachable expression on his face, and he kept nodding. Iris' simple words had already fooled Taylor so much that he couldn't tell the north from the south.

Dai Li couldn't help but start to admire Iris, especially the confident way Iris talked about the tactics, and the speech-like explanation, which involuntarily exuded the aura of a top coach, as if telling you, Listen to me and you will win! This kind of breath exudes a natural taste of brainwashing, let alone Taylor, if it is any boxer, it will never be questioned.

"Worthy of being a legendary coach in the boxing world, this Iris, the nickname of 'White Devil' is really not just a nonsense. Don't say anything else, just talk about the style when he spoke just now. I have to study hard. It's too compelling. Check it out!"
