Chapter 441 Public opinion boils

While Link and Chris Liu were sleeping in bed, news spread on the Internet that the two were staying at the InterContinental Hotel at the same time and dining at the hotel restaurant at the same time.

There are relevant video screenshots. Although they are not very clear, they once again confirm the relationship between the two.

Tianxian's fans burst into mourning after seeing the news.

They can’t understand why the fairy sister is so beautiful, so pure and clean, and so many people like her, why she has to get together with a scumbag?

Isn’t it good to find a dedicated and good man to fall in love with?

Some fairy fans posted a slogan on the Internet, "Drive away the scumbag Link and protect the fairy sister."

Over one night, more than 100,000 people liked and left comments.

There are also many international anti-fans who accuse Link, saying that he has already established a relationship with Miss Ivaca and is still messing around outside. It is true that bad habits are hard to change and he is the scumbag among scumbags.

Someone shouted to Evaca, asking her to kick Link out. There are many good men in the world.

With her conditions, she can choose from billions of men, from presidents and kings to civilians.

There is no need to waste your youth on Link, a scumbag.

Some boxing fans have raised questions on the Internet: Link will participate in a boxing match tomorrow, and he is dating Tianxian in the hotel that night. Will his legs be weak and lose the match the next day?

In 1990, Tyson lost to James Douglas who was much weaker than him in Tokyo because of his misbehavior before the match.

This time Link’s opponent is WBA light heavyweight world boxing champion Beirut Shumenov, known as the ‘Kazakhstan dark horse’.

The current professional record is 11 wins and 1 loss in 12 games.

He is also the person in the current boxing world who has won the light heavyweight championship in the fewest games. He is a very powerful opponent.

How dare you do anything in the face of such an opponent?

In addition, this game is also Link’s first fight when he is promoted from super middleweight to light heavyweight.

There is a common sense in the sports world that athletes need to recharge their batteries before competition, do not mess around, and it is best not to touch women.

Klink not only failed to do this, but despite being watched by hundreds of reporters and paparazzi inside and outside the hotel, he still found ways to date.

This performance shows that he is too arrogant and not afraid of failure at all.

Based on these speculations, the media claimed that after Link won 22 consecutive games, he became complacent, despised his opponents, and could not even abstain from **** before the game.

Mainstream public opinion believes that Link may experience the first failure in his career on Hong Kong Island.

These comments were published on the front pages of many newspapers the next morning, and were also reported on television news.

The title is that Link had a secret meeting with a beautiful woman before the game, and may suffer his first career defeat on Hong Kong Island.

The latest report from "Ming Pao" stated that after the news was exposed, Macau gaming centers have lowered the odds of Link's defeat.

The original odds of Link losing a punch were adjusted from 1:42 to 1:40.5, and the odds of winning the first three rounds were raised from 1:1.5 to 1:1.57.

It shows that the betting company is also worried that Link will lose the game and uses this method to avoid risks.

After these news were exposed, more people went to the betting center to place bets, and the number of lottery fans betting on Link's loss doubled.

Because of this publicity and hype, the news of the match between Link and Beirut became the most eye-catching news in Asia that day.

Ranked first on the hot search lists of major news.

Many media and many netizens began to discuss this game.

Discuss whether Link will lose to Beirut, can he successfully win the game and become the WBA light heavyweight world champion?

If Link messes around before the game, will his legs become weak during the game and he will taste the bitterness of failure?

ˆAccording to a survey by East Asia Sports Data Consulting Company.

The day before the game, 89.8% of netizens supported Link’s victory, and 35,000 Asian boxing fans voted.

After such news broke, support for his victory fell to 74.5%.

The proportion who think Beirut will win increased to 20.7%.

The proportion supporting a tie between the two increased from 2.3% to 4.8%.

These data show that the scandal had a great impact on Link, causing many boxing fans to lose confidence in his ability to win the game.

At the same time, it also adds a lot of exposure to this game and has a greater impact in Asia.

It also adds more uncertainty, arouses the curiosity of boxing fans, and also makes ordinary citizens pay attention to the outcome of this game.

However, in order to restore reputation and protect Chris Liu's reputation, both agencies issued clarification statements through the Internet and media on the day of the incident.

 said that Link and Chris Liu are good friends. After hearing the news about Link’s competition, Chris Liu deliberately put down her work and flew to Hong Kong Island to cheer for Link.

Link is very grateful to Kris Liu for her support and invited her to have dinner at the Intercontinental Hotel. It was fair and aboveboard, without any secrets or anything shameful. Netizens are asked not to listen to rumors and spread rumors.

Also please don’t believe the news on the Internet. Most of these news are fabricated out of thin air just to gain the attention of netizens, and their credibility is extremely low.

Finally, the rumors have stopped with the wise. I also ask the fans to continue to support Chris Liu's new drama and support Link to win this game.

At the press conference before the start of the game, Link also made a clarification in an interview with Hong Kong media reporters, saying that he and Chris Liu have been friends for many years and have a close relationship, and there is no shady relationship as circulated on the Internet.

He also said that he attaches great importance to this game and his opponent Beirut. He will pay special attention to diet and rest before the game and does nothing to affect the game.

As for the explanations given by both brokerage companies and Link, some people believe it and some don’t, and those who believe it and those who don’t believe it started a debate on the Internet.

The final result depends on Link’s performance in this game.

If your legs are weak and you lose, it means that the two of them were messing around in the hotel.

If he wins, it means that Link is very powerful and the relationship between the two is questionable.

“Hahaha, Link, your planning for this publicity and hype is great.”

In the locker room of the Hung Hom Stadium, Link was changing equipment and doing pre-match warm-up exercises. Eddie Hearn, the president of the Athletic Room Company, strode in and praised him.

Not many people originally paid attention to this game. Even if the organizer and promotion company invested tens of millions of promotional funds, this game only received a little attention in Asia and became a more watched sports event.

But since Link arrived on Hong Kong Island yesterday, the attention this event has received has skyrocketed.

Coupled with the scandal hype that started yesterday, words and titles such as ‘Link Hong Kong Island Match’, ‘Link VS Beirut Match’, ‘WBA Light Heavyweight Championship’, etc. have become hot search terms on the Internet in Asia.

On Google, Baidu, Weibo, Yahoo and other websites, the search volume of related words is many times higher than two days ago.

ˆ There are more than 30,000 relevant news links and articles on various search websites. The most popular "Link Hong Kong Island Competition" has been followed up to 8.5 million times on the Weibo platform, and it is still among the top three hot searches. The first one is the scandal between Link and Chris Liu.

Because of this publicity, the originally unknown WBA light heavyweight champion Beirut Shumenov also became famous.

Gain high visibility in Asia.

Many people now know through the news that Link’s opponent in this match is a boxer from Beirut, Kazakhstan.

The boxing world is sometimes the same as the entertainment industry, with well-known boxers paying higher appearance fees.

Because of this hype, even if Beirut loses this game, the appearance fee for the next game will increase significantly.

This is also the reason why Eddie Hearn still promoted this match even though he knew that Link was very strong and might steal the Beirut WBA gold belt.

“Eddie, this is not my publicity plan, and you don’t need to praise me.”

Link put on a towel to keep warm, took a sip of water and said.

He and Chris Liu had no intention of promoting this date. It was just a date and had nothing to do with event promotion.

He has already received 35 million appearance fees in advance, which is equivalent to the cost of buying out this game. No matter how much or how little he earns, it has nothing to do with him. The subsequent share will be several million at most.

There is not much benefit, and he does not need to use this kind of thing to hype up and gain attention.

As far as he knows, the reason why this scandal was reported by many media in Asia is that the organizers and gaming companies are behind it. The media also actively joins the hype in order to earn traffic and sell news.

"Really?"

Eddie Hearn looked at him with a half-smile, not quite believing that this hype had nothing to do with him.

The last time he played in London, Link also made the game well-known to everyone in the UK through his scandal with Emma Watson. Even more than a month after the game, the media was still discussing the game. And the scandal remains high.

This time when Link comes to Hong Kong Island to compete, he once again used the same method to hype this game into hot news in Asia.

This method looks simple and monotonous, but it is very practical. Besides Link, no other boxer can use it because they don't have the conditions.

First of all, Link is very powerful. He is both a world boxing champion and a pop star in the world music scene. He has his own traffic, and other boxers cannot get hyped in this way.

Also, Link is handsome and famous, and is popular with girls from all over the world. His rumored girlfriends are all big stars from various countries, but other boxers do not have this ability.

In addition, Link himself is a scumbag and is not afraid of rumors. If other boxers dare to do this, they will be called a **** by boxing fans before they even get on the stage to compete, let alone watch their matches.

Link doesn’t have to worry about this.

 Sometimes Eddie Hearn even suspected that Link had become a scumbag, and the purpose of dating girlfriends from many countries was to facilitate publicity.

Other than this, his international reputation would never be that high, and his appearance fees for foreign games would not have risen so fast.

After understanding these points, Eddie Hearn admired Link even more in his heart.

A master of hype like Link, even if he doesn’t become a boxer, has great potential as a boxing promoter.

"Hey, Eddie, you're not watching from Beirut. What are you doing here? Do you want to help Beirut defeat Link in this way?"

Franco came in from the door and joked.

“I’m not as despicable as you think. I just came to ask Link if he plans to join the competition room promotion. I can give him 50% of the company’s shares plus a 100 million signing bonus. Link, do you want to consider it?”

Eddie Hearn laughed.

“Eddie, is it really appropriate to poach someone in person?”

Before Link could answer, Franco shouted dissatisfied.

"I'm not poaching, but I'm thinking about Link's future. The current American boxing world has become very impetuous, and talents are scarce. There are only a bunch of veterans in their thirties and forties left fighting. Apart from Link, the younger generation has no one." What an outstanding character.

From the last century to the present, the British boxing scene has continued to produce many powerful and famous boxers, such as David Haye, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, etc.

We are in the industry, and we all understand one thing. If a boxer wants to reach the top of the industry, in addition to being strong enough, he also needs several powerful opponents.

For example, De La Hoya and Pacquiao, Mayweather, and Hopkins, they achieve each other.

What Link lacks most now is a few strong opponents. Young boxers such as Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are just right for him, so Link’s signing in the competition room for promotion will be more helpful for future development. "

Eddie Hearn talks a lot.

Franco frowned, "Are you really here to poach? Let's not mention that you mentioned that there is no one in the American boxing world. This is wrong in itself. Deontay Wilder, Andy Ruiz Jr., Andre ·Ward is a boxer with great potential.

 There is another point, and the most important point is that the top ten boxing matches with the highest PPV revenue share currently all take place in the United States. If you want to make money, it is best to stay in the United States, so don’t disturb Link here and let him prepare with peace of mind. "

“Humph, American boxing only focuses on PPV income and does not pay attention to discovering and cultivating capable boxers. You have gone astray. I bet that in 20 years, the center of boxing will inevitably return to the UK.”

Eddie Hearn said with conviction.

“That will have to wait until twenty years later.”

Franco retorted.

Link listened to the conversation between the two without interrupting. With the help of a boxing assistant, he put on a hand bandage and boxing gloves.

"Okay, let's put it down in advance. Link, I came here to help Beirut issue a letter of challenge. He has a good relationship with Karl. He said that this game will definitely teach Karl a lesson. I hope you don't do it during the game. Legs are weak."

Eddie Hearn quipped.

“Don’t worry, I won’t.”

Link clenched the gloves of his hands, and the muscles in his arms bulged tightly.

“Come on Link! Win the light heavyweight championship and become the number one boxing player in the world.”

Morales shouted.

The coaching staff also cheered for Link.

Simon came over to remind him that pre-match inspections had begun. Link, Coach Brooks and others went to the site to weigh in and check the competition equipment.
