Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

After leaving the boxing bar, James laughed on the street. He had just bet two dollars on Link and earned twenty dollars.

In the second game, Link's odds dropped to 1:2. He continued to bet on Link, and twenty turned into forty, giving him forty dollars in vain, as did Daniel.

But it was Link who earned the most. The basic prize for tonight’s game was US$1,000. Eight people competed on stage, and the prize pool reached US$1,800.

It took him less than half an hour to earn 1,800 US dollars. Although it was not as good as Tyson who made 20 million US dollars in 90 seconds or Mayweather who made 250 million US dollars in 36 minutes, it was a good start.

"Hey, Mr. Link Baker, please wait!"

Hearing someone shouting, Link stopped the car and turned around to see a lean old man wearing a baseball shirt getting out of the car. The old man was a Latino black man with a short stature, thin cheeks, and a few age spots on his cheekbones. , looks kind-hearted.

Although the old man is old, he is energetic and speaks in a loud voice.

Behind him followed a fat man with a sinewy face. It was Mario who was knocked over by Link in the boxing ring just now. When he saw Link, Mario snorted heavily and turned his face to one side.

"Mr. Baker, can we talk? My name is West Corian, and I am the coach of the West Boxing Club."

West Korian handed over a business card.

Link took the business card, looked at it, and said hello.

"Link, which club are you training at? Who is the coach? Maybe I know your coach."

West asked.

"I don't have a coach for the time being, so I practice at home."

"Haha, that's nonsense. You can do that by practicing by yourself. Do you mean that the people from our boxing gyms are all trash?"

Mario said rolling his eyes.

James chuckled, "I can testify that Link just practices casually, skipping rope and doing sit-ups. He has never been to a boxing gym or been in a boxing ring. Today is the first time. The first time Link came on the stage. If I can beat you, you are indeed a bit hehe.”

Mario's face fell, and he closed his mouth and stopped talking.

West Korian's face became even more eager after hearing this, "Link, your talent is so good, it would be a pity not to box. I would like to invite you to come to my boxing gym to practice boxing. How about you consider it?"

Link saw on the business card that the West Boxing Gym was also in the Palm Beach area, not far from the outer beach. It would be a good place to train there.

"Coach West, how much does your boxing gym charge?"

"Two thousand US dollars per month, equipment fees and food expenses are not included. Pay on time at the beginning of each month and there will be no arrears."

Mario hummed.

"No No, no money, not a penny."

Coach West pushed Mario away and said, "As long as you come, everything is free."

"What are you talking about?!" Mario widened his eyes and said dissatisfied, "You said I am very qualified and have to pay a thousand every month. Why doesn't he have to pay a cent?"

"Shut up!"

Coach West glared at him, smiled and asked Link, "What do you think?"

"Sounds good, I'll go to your boxing gym tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll be at the boxing gym tomorrow. Come over anytime. I'll wait for you."

Coach West grabbed Link's hand and shook it vigorously with a very enthusiastic attitude.

The three Links were going to the party, so they said hello and rode away.

Mario's dissatisfied voice shouted again.

"Why? Why can he get it for free and I can't, West, it's not fair."

"Don't complain. He is a genius. He can defeat you, a person who has practiced boxing for three years, by practicing alone. He is entitled to special treatment."

"Genius? Humph, when he goes to the boxing gym tomorrow, I will beat him until his teeth are all over the floor to let you know who is the genius."

Mario said, clenching his fists.

West shook his head, opened the car door and said, "If Link is willing to join the boxing gym, you can be his sparring partner in the future."

"What?!"

Mario's eyes widened and he looked at West in disbelief. He thought that after he entered the boxing gym, he became the pillar of the boxing gym. West's biological son and other boxers were his sparring partners. Now Lin Ke came and he became a sparring partner?

Is this life? So cruel?

"Yes, Link is very powerful. His speed and strength have reached the level of a professional boxer. If you work with him as a sparring partner, your progress will be faster. Don't forget that boxing champion John Ruiz once worked as a sparring partner for Lewis. Wang McCall served as a sparring partner for Tyson, and boxing champion Larry Holmes served as a sparring partner for Ali. Being a sparring partner for him is not to belittle you, but to value and train you.”

"Hmph, why don't you let him be my sparring partner?"

Mario complained.

West glanced at him and said quietly:

"Link's punches are heavier and you probably won't be able to withstand it. Maybe I should consider finding him a more powerful sparring partner."

Mario opened his mouth, "Okay, I'm not even qualified to be his sparring partner."

——

Link, James, and Daniel went to the Pink Lover Bar to attend the surfboard shop's second anniversary. A group of people drank, picked up girls, and smoked big guns, and had a great time.

Link didn't want to harm his body and refused pornography, gambling, drugs, tobacco, alcohol and junk food. He was a bit out of place at parties and went home early to go to bed before nine o'clock in the evening.

Ding dong! As soon as I lay down on the bed, I received an MSN message, it was the newly added Swifty.

"Have you slept?"

"No, I just came back from the bar."

Link talked about the celebration of the surfboard shop next door, and Taylor also talked about some rehearsals at the Hard Rock Stadium. He said that rehearsals were very tiring and more tedious than live performances, but he felt very happy when he thought about being able to stand on the stage and sing.

Link smiled. He also felt this way in the boxing ring.

The next day, he got up early and continued to run on the Seaside Boulevard. At around nine o'clock, Taylor waved to a middle-aged woman on the Seaside Boulevard and walked over the sandbar with a log-colored guitar on his back.

Today, she changed into a white suspender skirt with a light blue belt. Her tall and slender figure was about to bloom. Her hair was tied into a fluffy ponytail. She swayed when she walked. When she saw him at the door, she smiled and waved.

"Link, are you waiting for me here?"

"Yes, I guess you will come at this time."

Link smiled.

Taylor smiled slightly and began to teach him to practice guitar.

The two sat on a blanket, facing the sea, one patiently teaching, the other gritting his teeth to learn, both very serious, but progress was slow, Taylor could still hold back his temper at first, but later he didn't want to hold back anymore, and punched his shoulder muscles with his fist.

"Wow, so sweet, are they in love?"

Daniel from the hot dog shop asked as he licked his ice cream.

James looked up from Playboy magazine, glanced at the man and woman on the beach, and said with a curled mouth: "No, they are just taking guitar lessons."

"Not really, Taylor is about to lean into Link's arms, is it a teacher-student relationship?"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Link didn't have time to pay attention to the teasing of the two behind him, his attention was all on the six strings of the guitar, and he had to deal with Taylor to prevent her from criticizing him.

After practicing for two or three hours, he roughly understood the difference between the six strings and the position of the CDEFGAB sounds, but he was still a long way from playing a complete song.

During the practice, he found something strange. Taylor seemed to be approaching him intentionally or unintentionally, and had some intimate contact with him. This made him a little embarrassed. He didn't know whether he should accept Taylor.

Taylor is very beautiful and a big star. It would be great to have her as a girlfriend.

But Taylor has rich emotional experience after becoming famous. Her ex-boyfriends can form a football team. It's not bad to say that she is the queen of the sea.

Link didn't think he was her opponent in this aspect, so he tried to be careful when getting along with her.

In the afternoon, Taylor's mother, Mrs. Andrea, came to pick her up for rehearsal. When she saw Link, she looked at him deeply, which made Link's scalp numb. He felt that dealing with these women was more difficult than winning the championship in the iron cage battle.

After seeing Taylor off, Link also rode a small motorcycle to the West Boxing Gym to take a look.
