Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion Chapter 563

Chapter 563 The result is unexpected

On the ring, without waiting for the referee to count, Deonta stood up slowly. His left chin became red and swollen, his nose was bleeding, and his face became dark.

Since his debut in 2008, he has never been knocked down in an official competition, but this time he was knocked to the ground by Link, who was more than ten centimeters taller.

This was a very difficult thing for him to accept.

He clenched his fists tightly and vowed to get it back this round.

"Boxing!"

The referee announced that the game should continue.

Link punched Deonta, who immediately took a step back and blocked his head with both fists.

Link raised his eyebrows. Deonta was 201cm tall, 16 centimeters taller than him. To hit the opponent in the head, he had to stand on tiptoe. Now that Deonta saw him attacking, he subconsciously protected his head, which meant that his opponent was being attacked. Knocked unconscious, improper defense.

Link didn't want to give Deonta time to rest, and quickly took a step forward, hitting his opponent in the abdomen with a feint.

Deonta took the initiative to distance himself from him and punched back. His fist moved forward, but his steps moved backward, and the weight of the punch was greatly weakened.

Link saw the opportunity and stepped forward, risking being hit by the opponent, using the most commonly used combination of punches, hitting up and down, hitting down and hitting, and hit Deonta's neck and chin with two uppercuts in succession.

Although Deonta is 16 centimeters taller than him, his chin is within Link's attack range.

In a big vs. small game, the most important thing is to protect the chin, and obviously Deonta did not do this well.

Deonta was attacked on the chin and took two steps back to lean on the ropes. Seeing Link approaching, he immediately used the move he learned from George Foreman and pushed Link away with his fists to prevent Link from getting closer.

Link tried a close attack, but failed to find a suitable opportunity.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

The first round of the game is over.

Link came to the corner to wipe his sweat. His forehead was slightly red and swollen after being hit by the opponent's fist. The assistant helped him apply Vaseline to lubricate it.

His opponent Deonta had bleeding from his mouth and nose, which made the situation more serious.

Rest for one minute.

The game continues in the second round.

Deonta rested for a moment and seemed to regain his energy. He chose to attack again, swinging his ferocious fists and hitting Link's head one after another.

Link didn't want to be beaten, so he continued to use his super-fast reaction speed to block and dodge left and right, while also looking for opportunities for close attacks.

Deonta threw more than twenty punches in a row. Except for a few punches on the shoulder, he avoided all other attacks.

At this time, Deonta's old habit recurred. Without a good defense, he immediately put away his fists and retreated, wanting to rest before attacking.

But in the boxing ring, this style of play seems very reckless. There is no tactical thinking, and no understanding of thinking from the overall situation. It only takes into account one's own situation without considering the opponent.

After the first round of the game, Deonta should know that Link's strength is not inferior to him. In the second round, he should play more calmly. Even if he cannot be defensive, he should still advance and retreat in a moderate manner.

Unfortunately he didn't do it.

Link saw the opponent's flaw and did not ignore it. He quickly approached his opponent.

When the opponent tried to push him away again, he quickly lowered his head and used a very ordinary but very practical combination of punches, hitting up and down, hitting down and hitting up, and once again used an uppercut to hit the opponent's chin hard.

boom!

Deonta was punched in the chin, his head jerked back, the sweat in his hair fluttered out in the light, and blood spurted out of his nose.

"Stop!"

Before Link could land his third combination of punches, the referee shouted to stop the game.

Link put away his fists and saw Deonta sitting on the ground leaning on the rope, with blood flowing from both sides of his chin and nose.

The referee pushed Link aside, squatted down to check Deonta's condition, and asked him if he could still compete.

Deonta stood up unsteadily with the ropes on his arms, but then his knees gave out and he fell to the ring again.

"Deonta was defeated?!"

"Link won?"

"He killed the undefeated boxing champion Deonta in only the second round. Link is so cool."

The audience in the audience saw Deonta unable to stand up and cheered loudly for Link.

Link raised his fists and looked at his opponent's condition.

Deontay probably takes less beatings, and his ability to resist beatings is worse than that of James Toney and Holyfield. Also in terms of mentality, Deontay's condition was greatly reduced after being knocked down in the first round. This is probably why Deontay was knocked down in the first round. The reason why he fell into despair after being KO'd by Tyson Fury.

"8, 7, 6"

The ring referee squatted down and counted down to 8, but Deonta failed to stand up.

All judges unanimously determined that Link KO Deonta won the game.

When the ring referee raised Link's fist, more than 20,000 spectators at the scene let out a chorus of cheers, and Link's fans waved big flags in the stands, shouting that Link was invincible.

"Link wins! Deonta loses."

Tyson sighed.

"Before he met Link, Deonta was like a perfect boxer. In a fight with Link, his whole body was full of flaws. Link is too comprehensive. This kind of person will be the top fighter no matter what era he is placed in. ”

George Foreman shook his head.

"Deonta's skills are indeed too rough, and his defense is poor. He probably never thought that someone would beat him like this, so he never practiced defense."

James Tony curled his lips and said.

Ding dong!

Tyson's phone rang. It was O'Neal calling.

"Mike, didn't you say Link would lose? Why did Deonta lose in the second round, making me happy in vain?"

O'Neill said gruffly.

"I didn't expect this. Deonta's strength is very good. I originally thought it would be a close match. Unfortunately, we still underestimated Link."

Tyson said.

"I knew this would happen a long time ago. Link was able to knock me out with one punch in Las Vegas. It's normal for him to knock out Deonta, who is shorter than me, today."

"You're right."

Tyson chatted with O'Neal for a few words, hung up the phone, and looked at the lottery ticket in his pocket. He thought he could earn some pocket money by betting on Deontay, but he ended up losing a fortune. It was really unfortunate.

After the game, Link received a WBA world boxing champion silver belt, also called the world transitional boxing champion belt, which represented the opportunity to forcefully challenge the world boxing champion. It had little gold content.

"Mr. Baker, congratulations on winning the competition. Can you give us a few minutes to ask a few questions?"

A group of reporters gathered around him with cameras and microphones, rushing to ask him questions. Ask him how he evaluates Deonta's strength and performance in this game, how confident he is of defeating Alexander Povetkin and winning the WBA heavyweight world title, and what he will do after winning the heavyweight gold belt. Not giving up all the light heavyweight belts.

Link simply answered a few questions, signed autographs for the enthusiastic fans, took a few group photos, and then left the game and went home to recuperate.

"How does it feel? Does it hurt?"

Back at the mountainside villa, Ivaca asked looking at the injury on his forehead.

Link touched it with his hand, which was coated with disinfectant.

"It didn't hurt at first, but you felt a little pain when you asked me."

"Do you want to go to the hospital for a head examination?"

"No, the team doctor checked it after the game and it was a skin injury."

Ivaca was worried, so she took out the household medical kit, asked him to lie down, pillowed it on her soft thighs, and helped him disinfect again.

"Dad, you are back."

When little Margarita saw him coming back, she ran over, climbed onto the sofa, and continued to sit on his chest. Seeing her mother treating the wound, she also crawled over and blew a few times with her little mouth pouted. Go down and spit on his face.

"You'd better not be a disservice."

Link held the little one and sat on his belly and asked her what she was doing at home today. The little one started chatting babblingly. Although she did nothing, she always seemed to have endless things to do. Like her mother, she was a Busy little guy.

In the afternoon, Taylor brought Alexander and Cynthia over. The little guy was even busier, running around and couldn't stop for a moment.

While eating, Cynthia told Alexander that she had just watched his game at home and said that he was very good.

Link asked Alexander and Cynthia if they wanted to learn.

The three little ones were vying for ideas and holding up small spoons.

Before Link could speak, he noticed Taylor looking over coldly.

Link shrugged and said that when they grow up, teach them to swim and become Olympic champions in the future.

The three children didn't know how powerful the Olympic champion was, but they all cheered enthusiastically.

"You're not short of money now, aren't you considering quitting boxing?"

Taylor asked as she ate her green salad.

"Boxing is my only job now. If I quit boxing, I should retire."

Link shrugged.

"Boxing matches are too dangerous. Injuries occur in every match. I think it would be better to be an actor. What do you think, Eva?"

Taylor asked.

"It's useless to persuade him now, he won't listen. Wait until he wins the heavyweight Grand Slam in a few years before trying to persuade him."

Ivaca smiled slightly.

"After winning the heavyweight Grand Slam, will you quit boxing?"

Taylor asked.

"If there is no good opponent, there is no point in continuing to play. I will consider retiring."

Hearing what he said, Taylor and Ivaca were very satisfied and took the initiative to help him pick up food.

Link can be regarded as enjoying the blessing of being together.

After the competition, bonuses and various income shares will be received one after another.

Due to the good publicity, this competition has received great attention around the world.

On the day of the game, a total of 4.12 million PPVs of cable TV pay programs were sold in North America, setting a new PPV sales record in the boxing world.

The media are praising Link's super strength. They used to doubt whether he could unify the heavyweights, but now they have more confidence in him, calling him the real undefeated boxing champion, Superman, and the most powerful in the world. man.

However, some anti-fans questioned this game. They claimed that Deontay Wilder had a professional record of 30 fights, 30 wins and 30 KOs. A super strong boxer could only last 80 seconds after meeting Link?

A bit fake.

Black fans suspect that Link's "money power" is at work. Everyone knows that Link is now worth nearly 20 billion U.S. dollars and is currently ranked 37th richest person in the world.

If he plays a game based on his cash ability, almost no one can be his opponent.

Deonta is so powerful, and if he falls down when he encounters him, he may be defeated by his ability.

Some people doubted it, and naturally there were people to support it. "Ring" magazine and De La Hoya's "The Ring", "KO", "WorldBoxing" and other magazines analyzed the match between Link and Deonta in detail after the game, from the first second to the last second. .

Several professional magazines praised Link's boxing skills, saying that Link was a master of boxing, with very comprehensive skills and a master of tactics.

There are high expectations for his matches with Alexander Povetkin, Klitschko and others.

Link's fans also expressed strong support for him when he was questioned, hoping that he would continue to work hard and become an even more powerful person.

Link didn't want to live up to everyone's expectations and continued to strengthen his training after the game.
