Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

The sky in New York still didn't clear up the next day, and the sun was wrapped in clouds, only occasionally peeking out to reveal a faint light.

When the sun shines down, the skyscrapers in the center of Manhattan are the first to light up, while the surrounding streets are still dim. The difference between light and darkness is like a mirage, but this mirage is not filled with immortals but rich people.

"Link, your boxing license application has been approved."

When he arrived at the training ground, Simon handed over a card similar to a driver's license. It was his professional boxing license, which was reviewed and issued by the state sports committees and boxing associations. Only licensed boxers are professional boxers and can participate. A match held by the Professional Boxing League.

At the same time, after becoming a professional boxer, you must also abide by the constraints of the Sports Commission and the Boxing Association. If there are violations, the state Sports Commission has the power to revoke the boxer's license. Both Ali and Tyson's licenses have been revoked.

Name: Link Baker

Global number: US-007255

Alliance number: 003415

Class: Super Middleweight

World Ranking: None

Wingspan: 75.9 inches

Boxer characteristics: Forehand Orthodox

Link looked at the license in his hand and wanted to laugh a little. He had applied for it before, but was not approved because of insufficient qualifications. Now he got it easily, but it felt like it was not that important.

"Link, the opponents for the qualifying round have also come out. There are eight opponents in total, seven newcomers, and there is only one Raul Marquez. He just moved up from the middleweight class. He has a professional record of 15 fights and 13 wins. Last year he fought with China Heavyweight boxing champion Benjamin Taylor has fought for 12 rounds and is very good.”

Simon handed over a piece of information and said.

Link looked at it carefully. From the data point of view, there are almost no powerful opponents. With his own strength, he can push through in one round.

However, he will not take this lightly. Now he is the world champion, the most famous rookie in professional boxing, and a good stepping stone.

Many people want to climb up by defeating themselves and stepping on their own honor, but you must never give them a chance.

Also, after the news of his career change spread, the media and boxing colleagues all stared at his matches, wanting to see his status in professional matches. He didn't want anyone to laugh at him.

Link returned to the boxing ring and continued to spar with three sparring partners to hone his boxing skills.

On Wednesday, he, assistant Simon Curtis, coach Tommy Brooks, sparring partner Morales, accompanying doctor Ms. Lacey, and idler Dino Duva, arrived at the Madison Square Garden Arena with a group of seven or eight people. Participate in WBA organization qualifying competition.

WBA is the abbreviation of World Boxing Association. It has member countries of 167 countries and regions. It has affiliated organizations such as North American Boxing Association, South American Boxing Association, European Boxing Association, and Asian and Pan-Pacific Boxing Association.

WBA is headquartered in Panama, Central America.

The North American Boxing Association is headquartered in New York.

If you want to win the WBA World Boxing Champion's Golden Belt title, you need to fight in North America first to become the North American Boxing Champion and also the WBA Intercontinental Boxing Champion's Golden Belt. This stage of the competition is called a qualifying match.

After becoming the intercontinental boxing champion, you can challenge the intercontinental boxing champions from other continents. The winner will get the world boxing champion belt. This stage is called the championship battle.

If the world boxing champion gold belt is already owned, after defeating the boxing champions from all continents, you still need to challenge the world boxing champion, which is the boxing championship challenge.

Since Joe Calzaghe voluntarily gave up the WBA super middleweight gold belt not long ago, the boxing title is vacant. As long as he can defeat opponents from all continents, he can become the world boxing champion.

The entire series of competitions is somewhat like the Olympic Games, from countries to continents to the whole world.

There are only two countries in North America: the United States and Canada. The qualifying event in the United States is held in New York and is organized by the North American Boxing Association.

Since most of the boxers competing in the qualifying round were relatively unknown newcomers, only four to five hundred people and thirty or forty reporters came to the scene on the day of the match.

"Why are there only these few people?"

Link looked at the empty auditorium and was a little disappointed with the performance of the New Yorkers. After all, he was an Olympic champion and it was his first time playing a professional game. Why were there only these few people here? If we were in Miami, at least 5,000 people would come today.

"Link, this is just a qualifying match. There is no publicity. It is normal for there to be a small number of people. You are a boxing star and there are people supporting you. In some matches, there are no spectators or reporters except for the staff."

Simon explained.

"With too few people, the game will look boring. I will try to attract more spectators later. I hope the next game won't be so deserted."

"Invite the audience? How?"

Simon said doubtfully.

Link shook his head and stepped into the ring.

The opponent in this match was Gerald Lowe, a rookie boxer from Tennessee. He also participated in the Golden Gloves Championship this year and only made it to the second round. His strength was very average.

Link didn't intend to delay once the game started.

At the 4th second of the first round, he used a straight punch to break through the opponent's defense, and the second straight punch directly hit the opponent's forehead.

Without the cushioning of protective gear, the 1,200-pound punch hits the opponent with an impact of more than 300 pounds.

The opponent was knocked to the ground on the spot, and Link easily won his first victory.

The game lasts 6 seconds!

"Ah, this. Is this the end?"

"My camera hasn't even been turned on yet, and the match is over?"

"That's faster than I can take off my clothes."

The audience and reporters were stunned when they saw him knock down his opponent with one punch.

The match had only started for 6 seconds, and he knocked his opponent to the ground before the opponent threw a punch. This was too fast. I didn't expect Link to be a quick shooter.

After the referee announced the result, Link waved his fist and walked off the ring without a drop of sweat.

"Shit! Is that it?"

Dino Dua sat on a chair with his arms folded, preparing to watch Link's match up close to see how good Link was in professional matches. However, he had just sat down and hadn't gotten into a comfortable position when the match on the stage ended. Link had only thrown two punches.

"Haha, this is a match between masters. Link's strength is much greater than his opponent's. 6 seconds is a very suitable number."

Coach Tommy Brooks laughed.

"This is Link's style of play. He wins the game in the simplest and most direct way. You have to get used to it."

Simon shrugged and smiled.

"Damn habit!"

Dino shook his head. Although he knew Link was very strong, he didn't expect him to be so strong. Winning a professional game in six seconds might be enough to apply for the Guinness World Record.

"Mr. Link Baker, can I interview you?"

Seeing Link step down, more than 30 reporters surrounded him noisily, vying to throw topics at him.

Link took off his gloves, put on his clothes and said, "I have something else to do today, so I can only answer five of your questions."

"Mr. Link Baker, you look a little angry today. Is it because of the bad weather?"

A reporter shouted.
