Chapter 16 State Championship Champion

“Link! Come on!”

“Link! You are the champion.”

As Link walked into the ring, his fans cheered loudly and cheered him on.

Link waved his fist and looked at his final opponent, John Stevens, who was walking across from him. He was a little taller than him, his muscles were dark and shiny, and his bones looked very hard. Link couldn't help but sigh, it was another tough battle.

“Hey, I know you, your name is Link Baker, right?”

On the boxing ring, the black boxer John waved his arms casually and said.

“Hello, I know you too.”

Link nodded politely.

“Haha, it’s good to know me. You fought hard in the last fight, but I’m stronger than you. Today I’m going to beat you and make them my boxing fans.”

Black John pointed at a few girls holding Link posters in the audience, grinning with white teeth.

Link shook his head and smiled: "Mr. Stevens, this is impossible. Even if you defeat me, they will not become your boxing fans."

“Hou Li Crab, what are you talking about? You want to say that they are white girls and will not like me, a black man?”

Black John said dissatisfiedly that if he dared to admit it, he would report him for racial discrimination on the spot.

"No, no, of course not, it has nothing to do with skin color. They like me, not only because I am a fierce boxer, but also because I have a handsome face. I think it is not just them. When I become a boxing champion in the future, there will be many The hot black girl fell in love with me and became my boxing fan. After all, I am really handsome, don't you think?" Link said with a smile.

Bah!

Black John spat towards the boxing ring. He felt that this guy was really shameless. He bared his white teeth and said coldly: "Boy, don't be proud. I will beat you down today and let your boxing fans You know, under my fist, you are just a weakling who can only cry. Let’s see if they will like you.”

Link shook his head and glanced at him with disdain. This glance was more lethal than words. Black John suddenly became angry, cursed Fake, raised his fist and prepared to fight.

“You two, please get ready.”

The on-site referee separates the two people, checks their gloves, and announces the rules of the game. There are more rules for amateur games than for bar games, but time is limited. The referee only announces a few main rules and asks both parties if they understand English and if there are any problems with their ears. , you must listen to the referee's orders during the game.

“Boxing!”

The ring referee cuts off the hands to announce the start of the match.

Link raised his fists and began to leap forward. With his eyes fixed on his opponent's shoulders, he moved two steps forward and approached Black John.

John also stared at his position, keeping a distance of one meter from him, and did not engage him directly.

Link guessed that the opponent had probably watched his game and understood his way of playing. At the same time, the opponent was not irritated by the pre-game dispute and was a relatively calm and experienced opponent.

It’s tricky!

Difficult to deal with!

Link glanced at the opponent and simply put down his hands. His arms were naturally vertical at both sides of his body, swaying, and at the same time jumping forward to approach the opponent.

He lowered his arms, which means giving up defense. He dared to approach his opponent without defense. This is a serious provocation and contempt in the boxing ring.

Although John was warned by his coach before the game not to risk attacking and focused on defense in the first three rounds, he was angered by Link's actions at this time. He took a step back and suddenly jumped when Link followed up. He took a step forward and punched Link in the face.

Hoods worn in amateur competitions can perfectly protect the area around the forehead and both sides of the cheeks. The middle part of the face is not protected, and this is also the key area for boxers to attack.

The distance between the two parties was close, and John punched faster. When Link turned his head, John's fist quickly came over and hit the protective gear on the side of his face. Link was almost hit in the face, and his back throw punch He also caught up with him at this time and fiercely hit the black man on the forehead.

The distance between the two sides was too close. Black John noticed his move and wanted to make a strategic move backwards, but Link's arm was 192 centimeters away.

Bang!

A fierce swinging fist was like a hammer, hitting the black man's face hard.

Black John was hit on the head and fell to the side and back involuntarily. He fell to the ground with a bang.

“Wow! Awesom!”

“Well done!”

This punch was shocking and dangerous, fast and fierce, and full of spectacle. It suddenly ignited the passion of the entire audience, and more than 5,000 spectators at the scene shouted loudly.

“Link! Champion!”

The boxing fans in the audience shouted his name excitedly.

The media and thousands of spectators at the scene also focused their attention on this boxing ring.

“This boxer is interesting.”

In the audience, an elegant-looking brown-haired man held his chin and nodded slightly.

“Franco, do you like him?” asked the woman next to her, holding her child.

The brown-haired man shook his head, took out his phone and called his assistant, asking to investigate a boxer named Link Baker.

In less than two minutes, his assistant sent Link's information to his mailbox. The brown-haired man read it over with a surprised expression on his face. He called his assistant and asked: "Simon, are you sure he has the first 7 games?" In a competition, you win by KOing all your opponents? This is an amateur competition, and you can win by KOing your opponents even if you have a headgear to protect you?”

“Yes, boss, all KOs. In the Miami knockout round, all three games ended in one round. In yesterday’s three games, he knocked down his opponent an average of four times in each game. He is a heavy-handed player.” Assistant Simon commented.

“No, no, he’s not just a heavy-hitting player, his speed, his technique, and his boxing awareness are all extremely good, not inferior to those of professional boxers at all. It’s interesting, very interesting.”

The brown-haired man put down his cell phone and looked at Link, whose eyes were shining. He was a handsome, strong, capable, light-skinned boxer. His commercial value was considerable.

“Franco, do you want to sign him? He looks good.”

The woman in the skirt asked.

The brown-haired man stared at Link. Seeing him knocking down the black boxer again, he couldn't help clenching his fists, knocking his knees, and said: "Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, and let's see what his next performance is. I hope he can bring me more surprises.”



Bang!

On the boxing ring, in the second round, the two sides exchanged more than thirty punches, with both sides winning or losing.

Only five seconds before the end of the second round, Link found a flaw in his opponent, quickly approached, used a set of combo punches to break through the opponent's defense, and knocked down Black John at the corner.

Second KO!

“Hey! Good morning, Mr. Cohen, I’m Carl.”

In the audience, a middle-aged black-haired man with a camera saw Link knocking down a black boxer again. He couldn't help but take out his phone and call Greg Cohen, the promoter of Top Promotion Company, and solemnly said He recommended Link Baker, a boxer from Miami.

“Karl? Where are you? Orlando? What kind of boxer wins 8 times by KO in 8 games? Please tell me again carefully.”

Hearing Cohen's answer, the dark-haired middle-aged man smiled. Knowing that his words aroused Greg Cohen's interest, he told in detail about Link's participation in the Golden Gloves amateur competition.

“That sounds good, Carl, you continue to pay attention to this boxer named Link. If he can reach the Golden Gloves national finals, I will go and meet him in person.”

“Understood Mr. Cohen, I will continue to follow his game.”

The black-haired man hung up the phone with a smile. He is a talent scout who specializes in looking for young, outstanding boxers or athletes with commercial value for boxing promotion companies.

I heard in the news today that there was a boxing match at the Amway Arena, so I stopped by to see if there were any talents.

The performance of the boxers in the first few games was average, and there were no targets worthy of attention. When Link came on the stage, he first gave up defense to lure the enemy, then easily dodged the opponent's fist, and at the same time counter-killed the opponent with a swinging punch.

This punch is quite weird, quite stunning, and quite shocking.

Karl was shocked all of a sudden.

This style of fighting has only appeared in professional boxing matches. A rookie boxer dared to do it and did it very beautifully.

This made Carl couldn't help but be curious about this boxer named Link.

He called a friend and asked for Link's information. After getting information about Link's previous matches, he further determined that the boxer named Link was of great investment value, so he called the top promotion company. people.

As long as the top promotion company is willing to sign Link, he will also be able to earn a large commission from it in the future.

“Link Baker, come on, keep winning, the entire American boxing circle will be shocked by you.”

Karl held his e-cigarette and watched with a smile as Link knocked down his opponent again.



Bang!

On the boxing ring, Link once again used heavy punches to break through Black John's defense and hit him in the face with a straight punch. Black John fell to the ground for the third KO and could not get up for more than ten seconds.

Boom!

The audience cheered loudly, shouting Link’s name and calling him the champion.

“I declare that the winner of this competition is Mr. Link Baker!”

When the referee raised his arm and declared him the winner, the cameras and cameras in the audience were all focused on him.

There were many people engaged in sports in the audience. After the final, they all picked up the phone and called promoters from several major boxing promotion companies in the United States, including top promotion company (topRank), matchroom boxing promotion Matchroom Boxing, Queensboro There are boxing promotions Queensberry, Golden Boy promotions and Premier Boxing Champions.

On this day, many promoters from promotion companies in the United States knew the name of a new person - Link Baker.
