Next, after two resets, Zhou Quan did not stop, but immediately started a storm-like crazy attack.
Muller was like a piece of iron, being pinned down in the corner by Zhou Quan and beaten wildly, causing him to stagger around.
"Bang!"
After two resets, he held the fight for three more punches, but they were already broken up. Zhou Quan's sixth punch, a left uppercut, hit Muller's chin a little to the right, hitting the back of Muller's head. Hit the bottom pillar.
"Punch...hit!"
Shacher's chestnut roar sounded.
"Oh oh oh..."
Huge shouts rang out in the MGM Arena, like a hundred aircraft engines roaring, and the excitement and tension reached its peak.
The referee stared closely at Muller to check his condition. He did not stop the game, but his mouth was open and he might stop the game at any time.
Before Muller lost his resistance, he hugged his head tightly with both arms, especially his chin. He had already regained his breath and began to move his feet to the left.
The stage manager saw Mueller's actions and closed his open mouth again.
"Bang!"
Zhou Quan twisted his waist and waved his arm, swinging his right hand hard, stopping Mueller's movement.
The next moment, a left hook hit Muller's right abdomen, hitting Muller's liver with unusual precision.
"Well!"
This punch directly caused Mueller's body to freeze, and his limbs instantly lost all reaction.
But he weighed nearly ten kilograms more than Zhou Quan, and his abdominal muscles were very thick. This punch did not completely make him lose his fighting ability.
"Bang!"
But the next moment, taking advantage of Muller's body stiffening, Zhou Quan fired a right uppercut that instantly penetrated his frame and hit Muller's chin.
"Buzz!"
The huge impact hit Muller's brain and cerebellum from bottom to top, like ten thousand bees buzzing in his head. He suddenly lost all consciousness. Before his body fell to the ground, his vision went black. , fell into a coma.
"Stop!"
The stage manager was so experienced that he opened his mouth, shouted loudly, and at the same time rushed forward and pushed Zhou Quan away.
"Bang!"
Muller fell to the floor, his body twitching unconsciously. His jaw had been opened, and a large piece of skin and fat layer had been lifted away, revealing a mandible that was bleeding and had been cracked.
"oh!"
Like a volcano erupting, the MGM Arena was boiling at this moment.
"KO! Knock out Michael Mueller with one punch from Iron Fist!" Locke Shacher roared excitedly.
"KKKKKKKKKK...KO!"
Morel Winston's mouth trembled like a convulsion.
"Ouch!"
Zhou Quan raised his KO opponent's left fist in front of countless boxing fans and punched vigorously.
"I declare that Iron Fist wins this qualifying match. He has obtained the right to forcefully challenge WBC leader Oliver McCall. McCall cannot refuse, haha!" Schacher shouted excitedly.
"Within half a year, or at most nine months, Oliver McCall must defend the heavyweight world title belt in a mandatory battle. He must accept the challenge of Iron Fist." Winster nodded.
"Of course, the WBC is not the IBF, and the rules are not implemented thoroughly. This mandatory challenge may also be postponed. This is to protect the old boxing champion." Schacher said in a teasing tone.
"Ha ha……"
Winston laughed, but then said: "But let's not forget that McCall only has three months left to defend his title, otherwise he will have to give up the throne or accept the mandatory challenger designated by the WBC.
Therefore, I suggest that he accept the arrangement of the WBC and accept Iron Fist’s postponed challenge. Otherwise, it will be even worse if the WBC assigns him Michael Tyson. At present, Iron Fist’s strength should not be as good as Tyson’s. "
At this time, Michael Muller regained consciousness and could not stand firmly. Zhou Quan went over to shake hands with him, hugged him, and then left the ring with the help of several assistants.
The stage referee raised Zhou Quan and officially announced Zhou Quan as the winner, and the MGM Arena burst into warm applause and cheers.
"Crack, click, click..."
A large number of reporters climbed onto the ring and surrounded Zhou Quan to take pictures.
"Iron Fist, when are you going to launch a mandatory challenge to Oliver McCall?" a reporter asked excitedly.
"I haven't considered this yet. I need time to plan carefully. As you know, the NBA season is about to start." Zhou Quan laughed.
"Do you plan to take time to complete the challenge in the new NBA season?" the reporter asked.
"I don't plan to rush into it. It's a world title challenge and it's about the gold belt. I hope to be in the best condition for my first world boxing title challenge, so I still need to think about it and discuss it with my agent. , and discuss the challenge date with the WBC and the opponent I want to challenge." Zhou Quan said.
"The mandatory challenge will be six months, with a maximum extension of three months. After nine months, it will be June 15 next year. During the finals, if you can reach the finals, do you intend to have a mandatory challenge immediately after the finals? "A reporter asked.
"I said, I still have to think about it," Zhou Quan said.
Another reporter asked: "If you do not challenge as scheduled, Oliver McCall will have reasons to reject your challenge. Have you considered this?"
In fact, there are only three months left in his mandatory challenge period, and the WBC cannot force him to accept your mandatory challenge after the mandatory challenge period ends. If you don't challenge him within three months, he has the right to reject you. "Another reporter asked.
Zhou Quan nodded and said: "I know this, so I said that everything needs to be discussed before being decided."
Michael Muller was also surrounded by some reporters after he got off the ring. He was very embarrassed, sad, and depressed. Gold stars were still flashing in his head. Without anyone to support him, he would definitely fall down.
"Sorry, Michael has to go to the hospital for examination and will not be interviewed." Several aides left the reporters and helped Mueller leave.
"Michael, are you going to keep going?"
"Hammer, will you retire?"
Some reporters rushed to ask, but they received no response.
"Chairman Hogg, do you have any expectations for Iron Fist's mandatory title defense match against Oliver McCall? Such as a date?"
Some reporters approached WBC chairman Ross Hogg.
"Iron Fist is a cross-border fighter, and his time is ten times tighter than that of an average professional boxer, so we will coordinate to complete the challenge and defense as soon as possible," Hogg said.
He did not say to postpone it. As the chairman of WBC, he is very optimistic about Zhou Quan's development in the professional boxing world, so he hopes to promote this boxing championship challenge and does not want this challenge to be ruined because Zhou Quan does not have time.
Due to the postponement of the boxing match just now, Oliver McCall is likely to refuse, and he has already obtained the PPV content data, which is 1.25 million copies.
Only the top, most popular and influential world boxing champions can have PPV sales exceeding one million. Michael Tyson's PPV sales at his peak were only more than 2 million and less than 3 million. People like Zhou Quan A boxer, he will never give up.
Ali was also interviewed and praised: "Iron Fist's dodge ability is indeed very strong, he seems to have a premonition, no matter how you hit him, he can get out of the way.
In addition, his ability to capture opportunities and seize them is very strong.
Yes, what I am talking about is that after he was hit hard on the head by his opponent in the third round, he did not retreat or panic. Instead, he immediately pushed back and used the most powerful momentum, the most determined willpower, and the most gorgeous His performance broke the opponent's will in one fell swoop.
He seized this opportunity and KOed his opponent in just one counterattack. There is no doubt that he is a world champion boxer. "
Not far from him, the current head of WBC, heavyweight world boxing champion Oliver McCall, was also being interviewed.
"Oliver, if Iron Fist postpones his challenge to you, are you willing to accept his mandatory challenge?" a reporter asked.
"I'm sorry, I don't have an answer for you right now," said Oliver McCall.
"Why?" the reporter asked.
"I only have three months left. I don't have that much time to wait for him. My time is precious," said Oliver McCall.
"In other words, there is a high probability that you will not accept his mandatory challenge beyond the time limit, even if it is arranged by the WBC?" the reporter asked again.
"Exceeding the deadline means losing the right to force a challenge." McCall laughed.
"Michael Muller defeated Holyfield in twelve rounds, but he was knocked out by Iron Fist in the third round. Are you afraid of him, so you don't want to accept his challenge overdue?" the reporter asked.
Oliver McCall's expression changed and he snorted: "Overdue means no credit, why should I accept his challenge?
Our industry has its own rules. I am the world boxing champion. What qualifications does he have to break the rules in front of me?
Either proceed as scheduled, within my mandatory defense period, which means he has to challenge me within three months, or give up the right to force the challenge. "
Zhou Quan was taking Zeng Li to greet his friends. Philip had arranged a grand party at the MGM Hotel. He invited his friends one by one, and several world boxing champions such as Lewis and Tyson also accepted. accepted his invitation.
The two boxing matches last year and just now basically established his status in the professional heavyweight boxing world. If it were before, his invitation would only be ignored by these boxing champions.
At this time, a reporter came over and said: "Iron Fist, Oliver McCall just said that he will not accept your challenge beyond the deadline. He said that you must either give up the right to force the challenge or challenge him forcefully within three months as scheduled."
Zhou Quan was mentally prepared and said with a smile, "Really? He has his choice. I'm not surprised by his attitude."
At this time Bob Arum took over the topic and said: "Mr. Reporter, I can tell you that I will make plans for future mandatory challenges as soon as possible, including consultations with Oliver McCall.
We should be very clear that everything is determined by profit. Iron Fist's PPV sales are very good. HBO sold 1.25 million copies tonight, and the box office sold very well. The box office at MGM Arena tonight reached 50 million US dollars.
So I know that Oliver McCall will not give up the opportunity to fight Iron Fist. He can definitely make a lot of money by challenging and defending the title against Iron Fist.
And we all know that if he doesn't agree to postpone the fight with Iron Fist, he will have to fight a mandatory defending fight with someone else within three months. This is restricted by the rules. The WBC will definitely designate a mandatory challenger to fight with him. He escaped. If he couldn't lose it, he had to fight, and he would make a lot of money from fighting Iron Fist. "
Philip pulled Zhou Quan aside and said to him excitedly: "Zhou, Mr. Arum hopes to get your promotion rights for the mandatory challenge. He promised to spend 80 million US dollars for promotion, and your appearance fee will reach 25 million. US dollars, Michael Tyson’s highest appearance fee in the late 1980s was 30 million, what do you mean?”
"This game went well, we can consider it." Zhou Quan said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll talk to him again."
Phillip said with some seriousness: "It's beyond the challenge period and there is some trouble. Oliver McCall is Don King's boxer, and Don King is a vampire known to the world."
"No trouble."
At this time, Bob Arum came over. After hearing what Philip said, he said confidently: "Don Jin likes money. In order to compete for the gold belt, we can at most give up some benefits. This challenge will definitely go on. "
Philip and Zhou Quan looked at each other, Zhou Quan nodded, and Philip said to Arum cautiously: "Then Mr. Arum, we will leave this challenge to you."
Bob Arum immediately became excited and smiled happily: "That's great! Don't worry, I will take care of that old guy Don King."
Then everyone left the gym and went to the party.
The party was all arranged. After entering, Zhou Quan first found a quiet corner to sit down and rest.
Philip came over and sat down and said: "Zhou, I did the math. You have to earn at least 55 million US dollars for this boxing match, which is 30 million more than last year. The PPV income alone is more than 20 million." .”
Zhou Quan smiled and said: "According to the economic and financial policies of the United States, since the collapse of the Soviet Union, manufacturing has moved outward. Now securities investment is very hot, and hot money from all over the world is flowing into the United States at an accelerating rate.
The main investment markets for this money are bonds and stock markets, as well as real estate and the Internet industry. I judge that the stock market will enter a long bull market in the next few years.
Of course we, small investors, don’t need to touch bonds. I am more optimistic about the Internet industry and the stock market. Roger, I plan to continue investing in these industries, what about you?”
Philip smiled and said: "Zhou, you often come into contact with the rich and powerful in Seattle. I don't have as much information as you. I can't contact the upper class social circles in Los Angeles. I have decided to move to Seattle."
Zhou Quan smiled and said, "You have some players now, right?"
Philip said: "That's seven or eight people who have always been responsible for their subordinates. I will not delay their affairs when I go to Seattle."
"Then you decide for yourself." Zhou Quan nodded.
At this time, Michael Tyson came over with a wine glass. His dark and reflective face was a little red, and he had obviously drank a lot.
He took Phillip beside Zhou Quan with one hand and sat down.
Philip shook his head. Arum happened to be waving to him over there, and Ross Hogg was also there, so he hurried over.
