Chapter 483 Midnight Boxing (9)
After the exchange between Katherman and De La Hoya, he turned to Wang Hao.
Katherman smiled and said: "Mr. Dragon Boxing, you are now among the most famous boxers in the world, and you are also the second one to rule the world besides Roy Jones Jr. Level of boxing champion. And you are not an American boxing champion, or even an American or European boxing champion, this is amazing, this has not happened in the history of professional boxing, you have written history, and I I believe you will continue to write history."
"For American boxing fans, you are definitely a powerful but at the same time full of magical colors. Everyone is very curious about you. Can you tell us first, how did you enter the field of boxing? There are many famous champions, such as the super welterweight WBA and WBO champion Trinidad. His father Trinidad is his coach, and he is now the WBO welterweight. The boxing champion Mosley, his head coach is also his father. In faraway China, do you also have a boxer or boxing coach father?"
Wang Hao smiled and said: "I do have a pair of parents who are engaged in physical education, but they are not engaged in boxing. Both my parents are teaching in the local sports school in my hometown. My father is a football teacher. His mother is a volleyball teacher. Although they are good at their respective fields of competition, they can't give me much professional help in boxing."
Wang Hao continued: "Actually, I came to our local boxing club by chance. It was the only boxing club in my home city. Of course, compared with many boxing clubs in the United States, it looked very amateurish. , But from there, I fell in love with boxing."
In fact, Wang Hao naturally found the Taishan Boxing Club and started his boxing career, but as a reborn boxer, these are naturally Wang Hao's own top secrets and will not tell anyone.
"How many years have you trained in that boxing club?" Kesselman asked.
"Until I won the World Youth Boxing Championship, I have been training in that boxing club." Wang Hao replied.
"This is really an amazing boxing club. Can you tell me the name of that boxing club?" Kesselman said, "I can imagine the coaches who train you in that boxing club must be very great."
Wang Hao replied: "Taishan Boxing Club, he is like the towering Taishan in my hometown in my heart. His position is very important. At the Taishan Boxing Club, I have many good partners. We are teachers and friends with each other. Help, but my main instructor is not the coach of the Tarzan Boxing Club."
"Can you tell us more about it?" Katherman was a little curious, and continued to ask.
At this time, the other boxing champions also almost all looked at Wang Hao. As today's top professional boxing champions, they know the importance of coaches, especially the coaches when the fighters first started boxing, to the fighter's career. They are also very important. I am curious, what kind of coach Wang Hao has to be able to rise from Asia, a place where professional boxing is not prosperous, and become an Olympic champion and even the top professional boxing champion in the world.
Wang Hao continued: "Actually, my enlightenment coach is Atoli Lomachenko, and after I have achieved some results, he has been teaching me."
"Atoli Lomachenko!" Hearing this name, Katherman, De La Hoya, Trinidad, and other boxing champions present were a little enlightened at first, and then a little surprised.
The name Atoli Lomachenko is familiar to experienced boxing practitioners. One of the head coaches of the former Soviet Union National Boxing Team, the master of Soviet boxing, has trained many outstanding Olympic boxers, including gold medals. Boxer.
Even after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Atoli Lomachenko left the former Soviet national team, but he was still engaged in private boxing education. The boxing school opened by Atoli Lomachenko was very famous throughout Europe.
When I heard that Wang Hao's head coach when he entered boxing was Atoli Lomachenko, Katherman and the sitting champions realized that there are almost no world-class boxing coaches in Asia, even if there are occasional good boxing coaches. Miaozi is also easy to be buried, so when Wang Hao's early coach was Atoli Lomachenko, Katherman and several boxing champions realized why Wang Hao has such excellent boxing skills.
The superb boxing skills that Wang Hao has mastered need to be trained in his teenage years. Under the guidance of senior coaches, he can only master it after years of solid training. Atoli Lomachenko was Wang Hao's early coach and made everything better. Understood.
However, when the boxing champions like Katherman and De La Hoya were enlightened, they also felt a little puzzled. Wang Hao was an ordinary Chinese teenager, while Atoli Lomachenko was a boxing master far away in the Soviet Union. Being able to come together surprised everyone.
"Atoli Lomachenko!" Kesselman said, "I know this name, a great boxing coach, a master of Soviet boxing. But I am a little curious, how did you meet?"
Wang Hao naturally didn't feel surprised when Kesselman asked this question. Wang Hao smiled and said, “It was actually a very accidental opportunity. One of the members, accompanied the group to my hometown of Dongyue City to inspect the development of sports in China. And to the sports school where my father and mother worked, my father as the main person in charge received Atoli Lomachenko and his party , And I had been training boxing for a while. On the day Atoli Lomachenko visited, I played an exhibition match with another boxer. After the match, I became friends with Atoli Lomachenko. Atoli Lomachenko has been guiding me through letters and phone calls. After I have achieved greater results and upgraded to a higher school, I often go to Atoli Lomachenko's boxing school to train."
After listening to Wang Hao's narrative, Katherman's doubts in his heart were also answered, and he nodded and said: “It must be some of your highlights in the game that deeply attracted Atoli Lomachenko.”
After hearing Wang Hao's narration, the de la Hoya and Trinidad and other pan-middleweight boxing champions all understood how Wang Hao and Atoli Lomachenko met. They think this is a coincidence, and it is also Wang Hao's luck. If Wang Hao didn't know Atoli Lomachenko, he might become a buried genius.
Wang Hao smiled after listening to Katherman's words and seeing the expressions of several boxing champions.
From an outsider's perspective, Wang Hao's narrative is naturally a coincidence and is due to Wang Hao's luck. However, Wang Hao knows that in fact there is not so much luck at all, but Wang Hao knows that Atoli Lomachenko is going to study at Dongyue Sports School. Later, special measures were taken to make Atoli Lomachenko notice him, and the two became friends in such a short period of time.
"Can you tell us how your career developed?" Katherman continued.
Because De La Hoya, Mosley, etc. are all American boxing champions, there have been many American media reports on their professional experience. The majority of American boxing fans, including Katherman, are also familiar with them. But for Wang Hao, because Wang Hao is a boxer from China, the American media did not have much contact with Wang Hao. Therefore, many boxing fans are not concerned about Wang Hao's career development, especially when he entered professional boxing and won the title of world boxing champion. I understand that this is also a topic of interest to Katherman himself and many American boxing fans.
Wang Hao nodded and said slowly: "I first played in the country. First, I won my province, which means the state in the United States. In the competition, I won the championship at my level. It was a provincial championship and my first championship title. After that, I participated in the Chinese National Youth Boxing Championships, and in that competition, Won the national youth boxing championship. This was my first national championship. Soon after, I won the championship at the World Junior Boxing Championships in Kiev, Ukraine at the time. This was my first world championship."
"A few years later!" Wang Hao continued. "At the World Boxing Championships in Hamburg, Germany, I won my first adult world boxing championship, when I was playing in the 64kg class. What followed. , I think everyone should know that, on behalf of the Chinese national boxing team, I participated in the Olympic Games held in Atlanta and won the 64 kg Olympic gold medal. That was the last amateur boxing match I participated in, and it was my only one. Participating in a boxing match at the Olympics. I am very happy and won this gold medal."
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
Katherman couldn't help but applaud Wang Hao after listening to Wang Hao's development of his amateur boxing. At the same time, many audiences under the boxing ring couldn't help applauding Wang Hao.
"I remember you were received by President Clinton after the Olympics!" said Katherman.
"Yes!" Wang Hao continued, "I was received by President Clinton at the White House. It was a very special and unforgettable experience."
When he heard that Wang Hao had been interviewed by Clinton at the White House, several boxing champions at the scene cast envious eyes at Wang Hao.
To be received by the President of the United States is an extremely high honor for American sportsmen. It is beyond reach. Several boxing champions are very envious of Wang Hao. De La Hoya and Trinidad return to Wang Hao. Applauded.
"We all know your professional game up to the present record. You have won all ten games and knocked out all opponents. Although you have not played many games, based on the quality of your opponents, this is already a very Brilliant record. We are very curious, what is your final result in the amateur competition?" Katherman continued to ask questions that he was interested in, and also of interest to American boxing fans.
"I played a total of 167 amateur games and won!" Wang Hao replied slowly.
"One hundred and sixty-seven games are won!" Hearing this number of wins, Katherman and several boxers on the scene were stunned.
The audience under the boxing ring couldn't help but applaud again.
"This is really an amazing number!" Katherman exclaimed.
As a boxing person, Katherman and several boxing champions at the scene know very well how difficult it is to keep winning in a boxing match.
Even most of the boxing champions present today, such as De La Hoya, Mosley, Trinidad and others, have maintained their unbeaten record in professional boxing, but as they continue to compete, they encounter various High-level opponents, they know it is difficult to lose a game in their career.
There are those who have come, even Chavez, Camacho, and "York Boy" Campas who have experienced the battlefield. Although they were unbeaten for more than 50 games, they still lost to New opponents such as Chavez lost to De La Hoya, Costa Zu and Wang Hao, and Campas also lost to Trinidad and Fernando Vargas.
Undefeated record is an almost impossible task for professional boxers, unless they retire after playing a few games.
For amateur boxers, because amateur boxing generally fights more matches, and the shorter match time, the chance of the match is greater, which makes it very difficult for amateur boxers to maintain an undefeated record.
De La Hoya, the powerful Barcelona Olympic lightweight boxing champion, has played more than 200 games professionally and lost five games. Fernando Vargas has played 100 amateur games and also lost five games. .
And other boxing champions who have participated in amateur competitions, the number of failed amateur competitions is even more.
De La Hoya has 223 victories and five failed amateur boxing results, which is already a god-level existence!
While Wang Hao played one hundred and sixty-seven games, there was no loss. This result can only be said to be a super god-like existence!
Although Wang Hao has fewer matches than De La Hoya, Wang Hao, who also won the Olympic gold medal, has not played any amateur games inferior to De La Hoya.
Wang Hao's amateur results were so appalling that when Wang Hao said it, Fernando Vargas, who was sitting next to Wang Hao, looked at Wang Hao with a skeptical look. Fernando Vargas obviously didn't believe it. Wang Hao said that in Fernando Vargas's opinion, it is impossible for a boxer to play more than 100 amateur matches without losing. This is simply impossible.
Katherman and Wang Hao talked for a long time, even longer than chatting with De La Hoya. This made the boxing champions on the scene feel that Wang Hao was the biggest protagonist today, which made several of them. Wang felt a little unhappy in his heart.
After talking with Wang Hao, Katherman, who was very satisfied, turned to Fernando Vargas.
