Excellent professional boxers have their own nicknames, such as De La Hoya's nickname is "Golden Boy", Mosley's nickname is "Sugar Loaf", Pacquiao's nickname is "Asian Destroyer", Mayweather's early His nickname is "Pretty Boy". Later in his career, he got older, earned too much, and liked to show off his wealth, so the nickname became "Money".

When he entered the professional boxing world, Wang Hao was thinking about his nickname, because if the boxer and the management company couldn't afford it, boxing fans would help.

And Wang Hao naturally wanted to use this nickname for himself. Just a while ago, Wang Hao had already thought of a more satisfactory nickname, but he hadn't had time to communicate with William and others. This matter is settled.

"Dragon Fist"!

The biggest totem belief of the Chinese is the dragon, and they also claim to be the descendants of the dragon. "Dragon Fist" is a very Chinese name, and the word "Fist" in it can also reflect the characteristics of Wang Hao as a boxer.

"Dragon Fist" has both Chinese characteristics and a sense of strength. It is Wang Hao's favorite name after deliberation, and it is also the most suitable name.

Of course, the idea here also comes from Jay Chou, the singer who Wang Hao liked very much in his previous life.

At this time, in the mid-to-late 1990s, Jay Chou hadn't made his debut yet, so naturally there was no song "Dragon Fist", but the lyrics of this song had already been imprinted in Wang Hao's heart.

"Northeast with Dunhuang as the center, the coastline of this nation is like a bow, and the Great Wall is like a dream waiting to be shot for five thousand years. I use my arms to lift the weight of this whole land. The wind blowing southward from the Mongolian Plateau , Do you understand Chinese characters, the same skin color and face, I crossed the Yellow River and climbed to the peak of Mount Tai, and I went west, drawing the north wind, and tanned into a bronze!"

"I unsealed the world and emptied the water of the Yangtze River. In the metamorphosis of the ancient riverbed, I opened the sky with my right fist and turned into a dragon!"

The lyrics of this song have a pure Chinese style, but also have a strong sense of history and a strong appeal. Whenever Wang Hao thinks of it, his blood boils, and sometimes even tears come to his eyes.

The coastline of this nation is like a bow!

The Great Wall is like a dream waiting to be shot for five thousand years!

What is the content written by the wind going south from the Mongolian plateau, do you understand Chinese characters, the same skin color and face!

These lyrics vividly express the heaviness of China's land and nation, as well as the dream that is ready to go.

And "I opened the sky with my right fist and turned into a dragon" is powerful enough, with a sense of majesty, which makes people feel excited.

Wang Hao likes this song and these lyrics very much, so he finally decided on "Dragon Fist" as his nickname.

Although Wang Hao can't open the sky with his right fist as written in the lyrics, Wang Hao vowed to use this pair of fists to create a world in the professional boxing world for the Chinese and even the yellow race in Asia and create Chinese boxing. glory.

"Dragon Fist!"

William and Paul listened to the nickname Wang Hao gave themselves. Although foreigners could not fully understand all the meanings of Wang Hao's nickname, they still felt the strong sense of national characteristics and power in Wang Hao's name.

After all, although the dragon in the minds of Europeans is different from the dragon in the minds of Chinese people, they are both very powerful and powerful animals.

"I think it's also very good!" William smiled, "Then use this, I'm afraid you haven't considered this issue, so I also thought of a few for you, such as "Asian Battleship", "Red Bomber" and so on Wait, my understanding of Chinese culture is average, so the nickname I picked should be far less convincing than what you gave yourself. That’s it, it’s called 'Dragon Fist'!"

After talking about the nickname, William continued: "There is another piece of good news!"

Both Wang Hao and Paul focused on looking at William,

Just now William has brought a few news, all of which are good news, such as the matter of the WBO super lightweight boxing championship with Camacho, and the pre-match press conference with Chavez. There are other good news, Wang Hao and Paul are also very looking forward to it.

"It's almost the end of the year! The boxing magazines are going to start judging the various awards of this year's boxing world!" William said.

"There are several major awards every year, such as the best boxer of the year, the best game of the year, and the best new boxer of the year!"

William continued, "In our boxing club, only brothers Wang Hao and Klitschko have the chance to compete for these awards. Especially the best young boxer of the year, if he can win the match against Chavez, Wang Hao is very promising. hope!"

Boxing Magazine! Best Rookie Boxer of the Year!

Wang Hao was very familiar with boxing magazines in his last life. Boxing magazines are known as the bible of boxing. They can be said to be the most famous and authoritative publications in the boxing world. They are also the organization that releases the list. It has been 60 years History.

The World Boxing Organization WBO, the World Boxing Association WBA, the World Boxing Council WBC, and the International Boxing Federation IBF four major boxing organizations will announce the ranking of boxers in their own organizations and award the boxing champion gold belt.

But the four major boxing organizations are independent of each other. Although fighters may be registered in multiple boxing organizations and may hold the gold belts of multiple organizations, the four major boxing organizations only care about their own affairs and do not Will take care of things within other boxing organizations.

The ranking and selection of cross-boxing organizations is done by Boxing Magazine. It is precisely because it has done things that no other organization can do, and the evaluation is extremely professional, that Boxing Magazine has become the most prestigious authority in the boxing world. .

The most frequently published and most watched list of boxing magazines is the ranking of boxing P4P boxers. This is a ranking that includes all professional boxers, across the four major boxing organizations and across all levels.

Regardless of weight and boxing organization, boxers are evaluated on this list based on their professional record and comprehensive strength. The top ten boxers in P4P are known as the strongest boxers in professional boxing. Great honor, the general boxing champions of the four major boxing organizations will not be included, only the boxing champions with the strongest comprehensive qualities in the professional boxing world will be included.

Golovkin, Mayweather, Pacquiao, and Vasily Lomachenko were all once the kings of P4P in boxing magazines.

Wang Hao hopes that one day he can also be ranked in the P4P list of the boxing magazine, and even occupy the position of the king of P4P, but this is a premature goal. For Wang Hao, the most important thing now is to play every game well. Get the super lightweight WBA belt and the WBO belt.

In addition to the P4P ranking, Boxing Magazine will also select the best boxing match of the year, the best boxer of the year, the best coach of the year, and the best rookie of the year, and will award the boxing magazine's boxing champion gold belt.

Boxers such as Golovkin, Mayweather, Pacquiao, Lomachenko, and De La Hoya or their matches have all been on the annual list of boxing magazines many times.

Wang Hao's next opponent is the Mexican legend Chavez who was the best boxer in the boxing magazine in 1990. Riddick Bauer was selected as the best boxer of the year because he defeated Holyfield in a fight. De La Hoya was also named the best boxer by Boxing Magazine in the previous two years.

Wang Hao knew that he had only debuted for a year, and even after defeating Chavez, he would not be able to participate in the competition for the best boxer of the year and the best match of the year. After all, Holyfield and Tyson just had a fight. This match is too important. , Influence is also one of the few in the history of professional boxing. In Wang Hao's memory, the best boxer and best match of the year all came from this match.

Wang Hao can only compete for the best rookie of the year!

Whether he can win Chavez beautifully will be the key to whether Wang Hao can win the best rookie of the year.

"It's not enough to just win, you need to win beautifully!" Wang Hao said, "Which other fighters will participate in this year's competition for the best rookie boxer?"

William said: "There are a few of the most competitive boxers now, one is the American welterweight rookie Fernand Vargas, the middleweight boxer David Reid, and the lightweight boxer Yoda Huh, Mexican featherweight boxers Morales and Barrera, and then there's Wladimir Klitschko from our boxing club and you!"

Hearing these names that will shake up the professional boxing world in the future, Wang Hao knew that this year's Rookie of the Year would be hard to win. Only by performing very well against Chavez would he be able to overwhelm everyone. Won Boxing Magazine's Rookie of the Year award.

Among these competitors, the most competitive is undoubtedly Fernand Vargas, the future boxer of one of the four middleweight kings, nicknamed "Mighty", although he later became the four junior kings. One of the lowest grades of the king of heaven, but when Fernand Vargas first debuted in professional boxing, he played one match almost a month, and most of his opponents were defeated by Fernand Vargas in the first round. Garth solved it.

Yodah, Morales, and Barrera are also very strong competitors. Yodah is a middle-level American boxer who is very similar to Mayweather. His body flexibility and speed are not inferior to Mayweather. Yodah went on to become the world champion in three classes, and almost unified the super featherweight class.

Not to mention Morales and Barrera, they are the future Mexican Three Musketeers. In the future professional boxing, they will be second only to Mayweather and Pacquiao.

Competing with so many legendary boxers for the best rookie of the year, it is not easy for Wang Hao to break through.

"The competition is fierce!" Paul laughed when he heard the names of these fighters.

After bringing some information to Wang Hao, William left, and Wang Hao and Paul naturally devoted themselves to training. The match against Chavez two months later was a game for Wang Hao in all aspects. It's a game that can only be won but not lost.

Chavez will be Wang Hao's first touchstone after entering the professional boxing arena. Even though Wang Hao was once the boxing champion of the Olympic Games and World Championships, these achievements will allow Wang Hao to stand higher than other boxers after entering the professional boxing arena. By defeating the kings of the older generation, Wang Hao can only become an ordinary professional boxing champion at most, and it is difficult to become a dominant, world-class professional boxing king.

The match against Chavez meant a lot to Wang Hao.

Time passed quickly, and there were only two weeks left before the match against Chavez. During this time, Wang Hao devoted himself to training and conducted a lot of preparatory training for Chavez's technical characteristics to improve his performance. soon.

Two weeks before the game, Wang Hao and Paul came to the United States first, first stayed in Sanchez's Big Bear Mountain, and then went to New York to participate in the press conference for the game against Chavez.

Although the match between Wang Hao and Chavez was held in Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, in order to attract more American audiences, their pre-match press conference was held in a studio hall of the Hilton Hotel in New York.

The match between Wang Hao and Chavez received a lot of attention. At the press conference, it can be said that reporters gathered. The not-so-large studio was filled with 50 to 60 reporters and photographers, and two More than a hundred boxing fans who grabbed tickets to the press conference.

These journalists and photographers representing the media come from many countries, and they will broadcast the match between Wang Hao and Chavez to the rest of the world through TV and Internet broadcasts.

Representatives from both parties participating in the press conference also came to the scene early. WBA defending boxing champion Mexican legend Chavez, his coach and agent came to the scene and sat on the press booth. Wang Hao also came to Wang Hao, Paul, Sanchez and William sat at the other end of the press booth and faced the reporters with Chavez's team.

After all, this is the scene of a boxing match, and the atmosphere of the press conference is full of tension and smells of gunpowder.

For Wang Hao, although it is the first time to participate in this kind of press conference, he has seen it a lot before, is very used to this kind of atmosphere, and is very clear about what he should do.

The reporters at the scene first brought questions to Chavez, and a female reporter from the New York Times stood up and asked: "I am a reporter from the New York Times, and I would like to ask two questions to Mr. Chavez, the WBA defending champion! "

"The first question, the scene of this game is in Mexico City, why is the press conference held in New York? The second question, your opponent is a double champion of the Olympic Games and the World Championships, and his strength is very strong. What do you think about this game? How sure are you?"

Chavez wore a blue suit today, and he was dressed very energetically. He listened carefully to the reporter's questions, and then replied: "To answer the first question first, the manager decides where the press conference will be held. It’s just a boxer, but I think the press conference will be held in the United States, which will help American boxing fans know more about this match, which is a good thing for American boxing fans!”

"For the second question, I would like to say that professional boxing and amateur boxing are not the same thing. Many boxers are good amateur boxers, but after entering professional boxing, they will soon fail. I have never won an Olympic champion. But this didn't stop me from becoming a professional boxing champion. Regarding the match against Wang Hao, I want to tell you that I won't let it last twelve rounds!"

Chavez's subtext was clear even if he didn't play the full twelve rounds, that is, he should focus on knocking out Wang Hao to win instead of seeking points to win.

After asking Chavez, the New York Times reporter turned his attention to Wang Hao again, and asked: "We heard that Mr. Chavez's goal for this game is very clear! Then I would like to ask Mr. Wang Hao about this game. What to expect?"

After listening to the question, Wang Hao said to the microphone on the stage: "I heard what Chavez said just now, but I want to say that Chavez is old. I walked into Mexico City on the Independence Day of Mexico, and I will not talk to Chavez. It’s a points game and my goal is to finish Chavez in seven rounds.”
