Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

While the super middleweight competition is taking place, competitions in other weight classes are also taking place at the same time.

However, the U.S. team’s performance in this qualifying round was worrying.

Except for Link, heavyweight Deontay Wilder, light heavyweight Joe Smith, and two boxers from the female boxing team who advanced, all other boxers were stopped in the third round.

In the heavyweight competition, one of the more interesting scenes was that in the second round, Deontay Wilder met Andy Ruiz Jr. of the Mexican team. In fact, both of them were Americans, and Andy Ruiz Jr. just Represented the Mexican team in the war.

During the draw of the game, the two happened to be drawn together, which also allowed the Cubans to witness a battle between Americans and Americans.

Link was also watching the game in the audience at that time. No matter who Deontay Wilder or Andy Ruiz Jr. hit, the Cubans would burst into huge cheers, and the scene was quite enthusiastic.

In the end, Deontay Wilder defeated Andy Ruiz Jr., who had just been promoted to heavyweight, with a score of 27:18 and successfully entered the third round.

"Link, the Cuban side may be manipulating the lottery process. You should be careful."

The team coach Ed frowned and said.

Link nodded, not surprised by such a thing.

Although the Olympic Games is the largest sporting event in mankind, it contains too many political factors, so there will never be a lack of political operations in the competition.

Especially in the boxing event, since the result of the game is given by the five judges on the scene, who are arranged by the organizer, during the game, they can choose to give points or not to give points according to the situation. Match Results.

For example, in the 1988 Seoul Olympics, Roy Jones Jr. beat South Korean boxer Park Hee-hong until he was unable to fight back, but in the end Roy Jones Jr. only won the silver medal. This became one of the famous scandals in Olympic history.

This kind of thing happened frequently in the subsequent Olympic Games.

The Olympic boxing event has also become the most valuable but also the most unfair of all amateur boxing competitions.

But Link doesn't worry about that.

His goal is to KO all his opponents and make the scoring judges collectively unemployed.

——

The game entered the third round with 9 out of 5. Link met the Cuban boxer Rosnil Iglesias, 27 years old, black, 188 cm tall, 193 cm long, with 102 amateur records, 88 wins, 12 losses and 2 losses. He is an average boxer and has participated in three world championships and one Olympic Games.

The best results were reaching the quarter-finals at the Olympic Games and winning a silver medal at the World Championships.

He is also the only second placer in this Americas qualifying tournament to defeat his opponent in the first round and advance to the next round.

A very powerful and formidable opponent.

Compared with Andre Berto, his skills are more comprehensive, with almost no flaws on both offense and defense, and his speed is more flexible. He often withdraws quickly after punching, never giving his opponent a chance to attack, and he is slippery and loses. .

It is also more difficult to deal with than his last opponent Dennis.

"Link, this opponent is very powerful, are you sure you still want to insist on KO?"

Ed said with his wrinkled forehead wrinkled.

Link glanced at him, a little speechless.

When we first met, Ed seemed to be in his early forties and had only played two games. Ed seemed to be more than ten years older, even his wrinkles were much deeper, and gray stubble sprouted from his cheeks.

This couldn't help but remind him of Coach West on the other side of the strait. The last time he played in the Golden Gloves, West was many years older. Is it so troublesome to be his own coach?

Link felt that it was not his fault, but that they thought too much.

"Link, I advise you to give up."

Andre Berto shook his head and said, "The last time we fought Dennis from Canada, we almost failed by KO. This time we meet someone who is more powerful and faster than Dennis. How do you KO him?"

"Link, I also find it difficult and unrealistic."

Jones Fullers said.

Link watched the video of his opponent Rossnier and saw that the opponent was dodging flexibly in the ring. His movements were very fast. It was difficult to hit him, let alone KO him.

How could he KO such a powerful opponent?

Link pondered for a moment, clenched his fists and said, "Let's continue the KO first. If we really can't beat him, we'll talk about it later."

"Link, I support you!!"

Andrzej and Morales looked at the excitement and said excitedly, waving their fists and not taking it too seriously.

Coach Ed and Andre Berto shook their heads.

——

The third round of competition begins.

When Link walked into the boxing ring, he saw a black man who looked like Wolf King Garnett. He was strong and strong, and looked very difficult to deal with.

Do you really want to KO such a strong man?

The answer is, YES!

Human nature is lazy. If you encounter difficulties, just give yourself a step down, and there will be countless downward steps, and finally sink to the bottom.

This is not what Link wants to see.

I am a reborn person, a person with a special physique. As long as I work hard and train continuously, my qualities in all aspects will become stronger and stronger, and I may become a superman.

If you give up your efforts and settle for the status quo, you will gradually become weaker and become an ordinary person. After the advantage of rebirth disappears, you will not even be able to compare with an ordinary person.

This is not what he wants to see.

Therefore, Link does not allow himself to relax, and will never give himself a step down. He wants to defeat these opponents, let them become his whetstones and stepping stones, step on their bodies and laurels, and become stronger step by step.

"kill!!"

Link clenched his fists and roared, and the muscles on his body surged with explosive power.

"Link, come on!"

The American boxing team members in the audience were cheering Link up.

Link shook his fist at them.

After the game started, he chose to take the initiative to attack.

His fists were like hammers, hitting his opponent non-stop. The time was limited, and he would not let himself rest, nor give his opponent a chance to delay.

In the first round, Link punched more than 120 times, but due to his opponent's relatively fast speed and flexible dodges, only about 40 punches landed on his opponent, most of which were jabs with little lethality.

As for his opponent Rossnier, his muscles were very strong, so these more than 40 punches did not cause much damage to him.

"Link, be more flexible in your tactics. Don't just attack with force. Pay attention to conserving your energy."

Coach Ed persuaded during the one-minute break.

"I see!"

After taking the field, Link continued his attack mode, using his super speed and heavy punches to break through the opponent's defense, hitting the opponent's body 9 times in the second round.

Late into the offense, he noticed a detail that wasn't found on tape.

When Rosnier plays, he always lowers his arms intentionally or unintentionally to block the position of his ribs.

He remembered that Rosnier seemed to have made this move in the last two games, but because his opponent was weaker than him and did not pose a great threat to him, his gesture of making this move was not obvious.

After the start of this game, under his strong attack, Roshney gave up protecting his head at least five times and let his arms sink to protect his ribs, especially the left rib. This was almost a subconscious reaction.

Link didn't notice it at first, but his opponent frequently made this move, more than three times in one round. For an old boxer who had been in underground boxing rings for many years, it was difficult for him not to notice it.
