Furthermore, at this time, everyone still doesn't know who will be given the final task of lighting the sacred flame.

The torch is generally ignited by retired athletes of the host country with outstanding merits.

The United States is the strongest sports power in the world. There are countless outstanding athletes in various sports, especially basketball, sprinting and swimming. All spectators and athletes are very curious about who the final honor of the torch ignited is given. , They guessed that the athlete who lit the flame last was probably from these three types of sports.

Finally, the torch passed to the hand of the last stick. This is a tall old man with trembling hands. He is the legendary boxing champion Muhammad Ali who is already suffering from Parkinson's syndrome.

Boxing champion Ali, who suffers from Parkinson's syndrome, lit the torch with his trembling hands, which also ignited the enthusiasm of the audience.

Tens of thousands of spectators and athletes on the scene expressed their admiration for this legend and their love for the Olympic movement with cheers.

Unlike the others at the scene, Wang Hao had long known that Muhammad Ali would be the torchbearer who lit the Olympic flame, but when he stood in the Olympic Stadium among tens of thousands of enthusiastic spectators , Wang Hao's emotions were still infected.

There are so many outstanding athletes in the United States who can practice the torch, but the boxer Muhammad Ali was selected in the end, not only for Muhammad Ali's personal influence and contribution to sports, but also for boxing. Recognized.

Wang Hao, as a boxer, is also sincerely proud of standing on the scene.

The next morning of the opening ceremony, Wang Hao went to the indoor sports center of the Olympic Park, where boxing matches of all levels will be held.

Wang Hao arrived early in the morning, mainly for weighing and drawing lots before the match, because the first round of the boxing match will begin the day after.

A total of hundreds of boxers from various countries will be weighed today.

Coming to the weighing site, Jiang Tao said to Wang Hao: "Look! Team USA!"

Wang Hao followed Jiang Tao's direction and saw a group of boxers standing less than ten meters to the right. Blacks accounted for the majority of all levels. They were the American boxing team.

The U.S. boxing team occupies the home court advantage, and there are boxers at all levels. It can be said that it is the largest boxing team and the strongest boxing team. The arrival of the U.S. boxing team has aroused great attention on the scene, and many athletes watched it. Past.

Wang Hao's gaze swept across a few American fighters.

Wang Hao first saw Mayweather. Now, although Mayweather looks a little immature, he already has a strong confidence in his own strength. It looks like a beautiful boy without the taste of money, Mayweather. Se was also determined to win the gold medal in this Olympics.

Only Wang Hao knew that Mayweather would regret to lose in the semi-finals and only won a bronze medal.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Hao looked at Fernando Vargas again. Fernando Vargas looked handsome. At this time, he was also a handsome boy, sharp and strong. As a 67kg boxer, he was taller than Mayweather. A lot of burly.

Wang Hao knows that Fernando Vargas will soon enter the professional boxing world after the Olympics, and then knock out all the boxers in front of him at a very fast speed, becoming the super welterweight champion.

Wang Hao knew that after he entered the professional boxing world, he would also have a fierce battle with Fernando Vargas.

Wang Hao looked at David Diaz and Jill Vajez who were following Fernando Vargas again. These two boxers are the 64kg boxers of the US team in this Olympics, and they are also very likely Wang Hao. Fighter encountered.

When Wang Hao looked at the two of them, David Diaz and Jill Vajez also looked at Wang Hao sensitively.

David Diaz met Wang Hao for the first time. There was no change, but when Jill Vajez saw Wang Hao, his face changed several times.

Jill Varges said: "The yellow-skinned boxer is the Chinese boxer Wang Hao!"

Hearing what Jill Varges said, David Diaz looked at Wang Hao with interest.

Although the rankings of David Diaz and Jill Vajez in the International Boxing Federation are similar, David Diaz is only two places higher than Jill Vajez, but he has demonstrated his strength in internal trials. David Diaz is much better than Gil Vajz.

And David Diaz is very confident in his own strength. He fights with any boxer in a fierce attack, a continuous oppressive offensive style. David Diaz feels that Jill Vajez has been somewhat affected. Wang Hao was terrified, and he didn't even have self-confidence. David Diaz felt that when he met Wang Hao, he would definitely bring a fierce battle to Wang Hao, allowing Wang Hao to see the ability of an American boxer in the lower 64 kg class.

David Diaz said: "Very young! It seems to be younger than you and me. To be able to win the World Championships at such a young age is a powerful character! I hope I have the opportunity to meet him and see how strong he is."

Upon hearing David Diaz's words, Jill Vajez did not speak. He knew that David Diaz was very unconvinced with Wang Hao and wanted to play a game with Wang Hao in this Olympics, but could he There is a chance to play, naturally, it depends on the result of the draw.

The Olympics has only been more than half a year since the last World Championships. Gil Vajs is very clear about his improvement over the past six months, and he has not improved much. He knows that if he meets Wang Hao again in this Olympics, he has no chance of winning. of.

But Jill Vajez also thinks that David Diaz may be able to deal with Wang Hao, because Jill Vajez knows that David Diaz is stronger than himself. He is the strongest boxer in the US team at this level, and he Wei Diaz's style is completely different, and may be able to suppress Wang Hao.

Wang Hao finally looked at the captain of the U.S. boxing team standing at the back, Anthony Tafer, the light heavyweight who will later defeat the legendary Roy Jones Jr. twice in the professional boxing world. Anthony at this time Tafer just won the gold medal in the last World Championships, and he is also determined to win the boxing gold medal in the 81 kg class at the Atlanta Olympics.

The head coach of the American boxing team, Mitchell, also came over at this time and said to the boxers of the American team: "Go and weigh! Boys! We will get a lot of heavy gold medals!"

Hearing this sentence, Wang Hao also smiled in his heart. The US boxing team will indeed win a lot of heavy medals in this Olympics, but most of them will be bronze medals.

The American boxing team hopes to relive the old dream of eight gold medals in the 1984 Olympics in this Olympics, but in the end it will prove to be just a dream.

"Hey! Brother Wang Hao!" A familiar voice came, followed by an unusually tall figure.

Wang Hao also showed a smile on his face, following the voice, "Vladimir!"

The visitor is Vladimir Klitschko of the Ukrainian boxing team. He will participate in the 91-kilogram and above competitions in this Olympics.
