"when!"
A minute passed quickly and the bell rang for the second round.
"Box!"
The referee gave the order and the second round officially began.
Zhou Quan immediately slid forward and grabbed the frame to grab the opponent. The momentum of the attack can be described as menacing.
Dake did not retreat, but fired a straight punch with his front hand to block it. He still had to control his opponent on the periphery. This was the core of his style of play.
Zhou Quan dodges, letting his opponent hit the air, and continues to slide forward.
The sliding step in boxing is no better than the sprinting step. The step length is very small, only one foot at most, or even only about twenty or thirty centimeters. This allows the back heel to catch up in the shortest time, stabilize the center of gravity, and make the lower body more stable. , to make punching or defense easier and faster.
Dake slid back and hit another straight front hand punch.
But in the next moment, when Zhou Quan was dodging and grabbing, he actually hit a heavy straight punch with his back hand.
"Attack!"
"Another attack!"
At the moment when Dak threw the backhand punch, Carl Lewis and John Ngum shouted sharply at the ESPN commentary box almost at the same time.
"call!"
Zhou Quan was as calm as a piece of cold iron, staring at his opponent like a wolf with his arms exposed. Under the extremely fast nerve reaction speed, he once again made defensive instinctive actions, and once again relied on god-level dodge to let him down. The opponent's backhand punch was empty.
For a professional boxer with his level of strength, his dodge movements have long been instinctive, and his body's reaction is so fast that his brain has no time to react.
If you wait for your brain to react before you dodge, it will be too late and you will have been hit by your opponent long ago.
"It's going to be bad!"
Dake's coach Stree's eyes widened when he saw Dake's backhand punch empty.
There is a big difference between the back hand punch and the front hand punch. The back hand punch is heavier than the front hand punch. It is a heavy punch that determines the outcome with one punch. The one that KOs the opponent with one punch is usually a heavy back hand punch.
But once the back hand punch is empty, the consequences will be more serious than if the front hand punch is empty.
The stance of a right-handed boxer is with the left foot in front and the right foot behind. The left fist is the front hand and the right fist is the back hand.
It doesn't matter if the front hand punch is empty. The front hand punch is to control and test to attract the opponent's first move, while the back hand punch is for finishing the attack.
The backhand punch requires a larger force movement. Once the punch is missed, it will take longer to retract the fist arm, which will leave an opening for the opponent to counterattack.
Especially if the opponent is a peerless boxing champion like Zhou Quan who is good at dodge at the divine level, he can launch a counterattack as long as there is a chance.
Sure enough, at this moment, Zhou Quan's attack had begun.
While dodging to let the opponent hit the air, he slid forward to get closer to the inner circle, and hit Dak's chin with a left uppercut. The uppercut was so fierce that it controlled the upward momentum and was unstoppable! Lightning fast!
"Bang!"
A heavy uppercut hit Dake's chin. At the moment of the impact, there was no movement to release the force. The powerful punch directly tore the flesh on the chin. As the blood burst, Dake's head was hit. He leaned back suddenly and drooled everywhere.
"Buzz!"
The moment he was hit by a heavy hook, the huge upward force of the punch hit the brainstem along the mandible, forming a powerful impact. It was like a big bell was ringing in Dake's head, and strong dizziness occurred.
"Hit! Hit, hit, hit, hit!" John Ngum yelled repeatedly.
"The King of Iron Fist hit his opponent hard on the chin with an uppercut..." Carl Lewis was not to be outdone and kept roaring.
"boom!"
Huge shouts also sounded in the Staples Center at the same time, sweeping the entire venue like a whirlwind, and the adrenaline of all boxing fans began to burst and spurt.
"Fall back!"
Coach Sterry's scream sounded like an air raid siren, very shrill.
After two steps, Klitschko passively took two big steps back and hit the guardrail with his back.
Although he was severely dizzy, he was still conscious. He immediately squatted down and entered a complete defensive state, hoping to withstand this wave.
"Bang!"
Zhou Quan sprinted forward to catch up. He opened his stance and was hit with a powerful and heavy backhand straight punch, which hit the opponent's frame. The blow caused Dake to lean back and hit the guardrail before bouncing back. .
He twisted his hips and raised his arms, then threw another uppercut with his back hand, hitting his opponent's bloody chin with the most ferocity.
At the moment when the uppercut hit, Klitschko's lower perspective was blurred, and he instinctively drew his arms inward, protecting his chin tightly.
"Bang!"
The powerful punch almost opened the arms.
After all, Dak was experienced. He knew that the next punch from the Iron Fist King would definitely hit both sides of his head, because the two sides of his head were already exposed.
"Hug him! Hug him!"
Under the ring, Street yelled loudly.
"Bang!"
Sure enough, Zhou Quan's subsequent left uppercut was blocked by Dake's right frame and failed to hit.
The next moment, Dake took a step forward and put his arms around Zhou Quan.
However, Zhou Quan reacted very quickly, twisting his waist and raising his arm with another extremely fast right uppercut.
Dake's movement and hugging movements were a little slow because he had just been hit hard on the chin. Before his hands could hug Zhou Quan, the middle door was wide open and defenseless. This very short gap was seized by Zhou Quan.
"Bang!"
Klitschko was hit hard on the chin again. Blood and saliva spattered, and his mouthguard flew out. His head was thrown back violently, and his feet failed to keep up. His whole body turned backwards and hit him. On the guardrail rope.
"Stop!"
The stage manager gave a sharp shout and rushed forward to push Zhou Quan away.
"Oh oh oh……"
The Staples Center was completely boiling. Countless boxing fans stood up from their seats, waving their arms and shouting as they were bursting with adrenaline.
"Heavy hit! Another uppercut! The Iron Fist King hit hard again, hitting his opponent's chin hard. This is the third time he hit his opponent's chin hard!" Carl Lewis roared with excitement.
"It's so beautiful! At the third second of the second round, Klitschko has been knocked down. He was knocked down by the heavy uppercut of the Iron Fist King! Will there be a KO? The referee is counting the seconds!" John Ngum shouted loudly .
"Brother, get up quickly! Get up..."
Xiaoke glared angrily, hitting the ring vigorously and yelling sternly.
"Vitaly, get up! Get up..." Coach Sterry did the same and kept yelling.
"Oh oh oh……"
Zhou Quan retreated to a neutral corner, turned around and raised his fists at countless boxing fans, who roared crazily at him.
Dake was lying under the guardrail, his chest heaving, and his eyes looking at the sky aimlessly. Countless lights were circling and rolling, forming a brilliant Milky Way in his eyes. The dizziness was so intense that he closed his eyes.
He felt like he was falling into hell, and an irresistible suction was pulling him towards hell. He tried to sit up, but could not resist the force.
The stage manager's countdown sounded in my ears, four, five, six...
"damn it!"
When the stage judge read seven, he gave up the struggle.
"Eight!"
After the stage referee read eight, seeing that Da Ke did not get up, he immediately stretched out his arms forcefully, announcing the end of the boxing match.
"Oh ho!"
At this moment, the Staples Center was completely boiling.
"Congratulations to the Iron Fist King, you completed the KO in three minutes and three seconds. It only took you 183 seconds to get back the WBA heavyweight world title you gave up." Carl Lewis said excitedly.
"I really hope that King of Iron Fist can once again complete the unification battle of the four major organizations." John Ngum laughed.
Carl Lewis received a piece of data at this time and said excitedly: "This world boxing championship has sold a total of 6.11 million paid viewings, with PV revenue as high as 611 million US dollars, of which the Iron Fist King shared 33%, which is 201.63 million US dollars. , plus 80 million appearance fees and 20 million bonuses, the three incomes are as high as 301.63 million US dollars."
John Ngum continued: "The box office revenue of this boxing match is as high as 86 million U.S. dollars, and Iron Fist King accounts for 30% of it, which is 25.8 million U.S. dollars. Plus the advertising revenue share, the five incomes add up, and the pre-tax income is as high as With US$330 million, it truly deserves to be the number one money-making machine in the sports world!”
Carl Lewis took out the prepared calculator and did some calculations, and exclaimed: "It attracts 1.8 million US dollars per second. It is indeed a money-attracting machine."
John Engels said: "Although Klitschko lost his gold belt, his income is close to 70 million US dollars, which should exceed the total income of his entire career. It is a good deal."
"I wonder if Klitschko will challenge the Iron Fist King?" Lewis asked with interest.
"Anyway, the Iron Fist King has no agreement to fight Klitschko in a rematch, so Dak should have no chance to challenge the Iron Fist King." Engham said with a smile.
Lewis said: "Yes, this boxing match has been discussed for several months. Da Ke's side has been talking for several months despite the huge financial benefits. The main reason is that Da Ke wants to have a rematch, but the Iron Fist King does not agree. .
The main reason was that he didn't have time. He wanted to see the King of Iron Fist's next boxing match and had to wait at least a year. He didn't have time to fight Dak again. "
John Ngum said: "The King of Iron Fist spans several worlds, but his main occupation is the NBA. He really doesn't have time to fight in second battles, so he rarely fights in second battles."
At this time, the boxing ring was crowded with people. After Zhou Quan accepted the celebration from a group of friends, he accepted the gold belt presented by the WBA chairman.
Warm cheers rang out again at the Staples Center, and boxing fans only felt sorry. The Iron Fist King's boxing match was great to watch, but it was too short, and it was considered too long until the second round.
After accepting some interviews with the media, Zhou Quan and his friends left the Staples Center after taking a shower and went to the Hilton Hotel for a celebration party.
The party was arranged by three promoters, who booked two banquet halls and a small hall in the Hilton. I don't know how many people attended the party that night, but everyone wanted to go in.
Zhou Quan simply showed up in the two halls, and then went to the small hall with his friends, which was not accessible to ordinary people.
After this boxing match, he entered a state of study again and went to UCLA every day for classes.
In late October, long after the 9/11 incident, Zeng Li returned to Seattle with Xiao Zhouyuan and Lin Yufen.
My father, Zhou Jianguo, is temporarily staying in his hometown to build a house. Work has already started. He is looking for a construction company in Changde City.
On October 19, the NBA preseason ended. Bart called Zhou Quan and told him that he had signed a one-year basic salary contract with the Nuggets, US$246,000, US$3,000 per game.
On October 23, Apple announced the launch of IPOD.
This is a portable multimedia player, which can be regarded as an epoch-making product. It immediately caused a shock, and Apple's shares also rose out of control.
Zhou Quan was a little pleased. Some time ago, he disposed of many stocks with poor performance, except Apple.
Because he always had some expectations for Jobs, and his investment in Apple was not large, that is, 260,000 lots, 26 million shares.
The original total investment was US$30 million. Before 911, the market value rose to US$50 million, and during this period it fell to US$40 million.
In the week after the launch of IPOD, Apple's shares have doubled, and the 40 million has become 80 million US dollars.
This is still a new thing that has just come out and sales have not yet started. If IPOD is accepted by the market, Apple's stock price will skyrocket.
"Sure enough, investing in an epoch-making high-IQ talent like Steve Jobs is the most correct investment behavior."
He feels that he needs to keep an eye on the sales of IPOD. Although he cannot get inside information, he can analyze this based on the situation around him. When everyone around him is talking about IPOD, that is when the stock price starts to soar.
