Chapter 399 opponent

There are so many boxing organizations in the world, including more than 70 in the United States. In fact, many boxing organizations can no longer organize effective competitions. They only occasionally show off their faces in some regional competitions, and contribute some strength when holding competitions. Together with other powerful organizations, they can verify the so-called king of the world and show their presence.

The most famous boxing organization is undoubtedly the so-called four major professional boxing organizations: World Boxing Association WBA, World Boxing Organization WBO, World Boxing Council WBC, and International Boxing Federation IBF. In addition, there are more famous professional boxing organizations such as wpbf, wbe, wbf, wbu, iba, wbb, ibo, ibc, ibu, pbo, wbn, gbu, ubo, etc. Among them, ibo and wbf are also very well-known, and many world-class boxing champions are also registered.

As the current president of the World Boxing Council, Surman is extremely glorious. WBC has 162 member states and is simply a miniature United Nations. In countries with developed professional boxing, Surman will always receive the highest standard reception. For example, when he arrives in South Africa, he will receive the president; when he is in Mexico, he can have dinner with the president; even in the United States, he is a regular visitor to the White House.

However, today Surman looked extremely headache.

"Two years have passed so quickly. I didn't think it was over. That troublesome guy is coming back." Surman said to himself, but his brows became tighter and tighter.

Next to him, the assistant held a folder in his hand and said, "Mr. Chairman, it seems that Kevin Taylor's comeback battle is not short of opponents. We have asked many boxers, and almost everyone is very willing to be the opponent of Kevin Taylor's first match since his comeback. This is the list I selected."

"Haha... the same as I expected." Surman smiled slightly, took the list and said: "Taylor was once the strongest heavyweight boxing champion in the world. If he returns now, there must be many boxing champions who can't wait to beat him up!"

The assistant nodded: "If he were still the Taylor back then, perhaps no one would be his opponent. Now, everyone knows that he is just an old lion king, his teeth and claws are no longer sharp, so the young lions can't wait to knock him down to prove their strength."

The so-called "The Yangtze River's waves push the previous waves, and the previous waves are beaten to death on the beach. If those young professional boxers want to become famous quickly, the best way is to defeat a famous boxer, preferably at the boxing champion level. Under normal circumstances, how can young players beat boxing champions? Sports are about strength, and those who can become boxing champions and wear that gold belt, although they dare not be 100% sure that they are the strongest at this level, they are definitely the best.

Taylor is obviously a very suitable "former" now. His fame is the biggest among the "former". If he can be shot to death on the beach, even an unknown rookie will become famous in one battle.

What's more, Taylor, a boxer who once ruled the boxing world, has long been thoroughly studied. Even ordinary people know that Taylor's style of playing relies heavily on explosive power, and he has passed the peak. With his current age, explosive power has deteriorated very seriously. He can no longer fight the fierce combination of punches he was young.

For professional boxers, it is not difficult for them to find a way to deal with Taylor. Back then, Taylor was able to reduce ten goals with one force, and no one could beat three tricks. Now Taylor's "one force" may only be 50%, which is much easier for professional boxers to deal with.

So boxers with a little strength all hope to become Taylor's first match in his comeback. Just imagine how exciting it is to defeat Taylor, defeat this former boxing ruler in his first game, become famous in one battle, and step on Taylor to take over.

This is also the headache for Surman. What kind of opponent should he arrange for Kevin Taylor's first comeback match?

Surman looked at the list, but kept shaking his head, obviously not very satisfied with the boxer on the list.

"No, none of these are possible. Their strength is too weak." Surman denied.

"As usual, the first match after the boxer returns will not be arranged for strong boxers." The assistant said.

"This is the routine, but it shouldn't be used on Taylor." Surman hugged his arms and thought for more than ten seconds, then spoke, "How about Sanders? Can he deal with the challenge?"

"You are talking about the 'trench' Sanders? Will it be too strong? He is the tenth boxer among the challengers of the gold belt, and his technical characteristics seem to be somewhat restrained by Kevin Taylor. Will Taylor not be able to beat him?" the assistant said.

"That's why he wants to welcome Taylor's first battle after his comeback, because none of us knows that Taylor still has some skills left now, and Sanders is a good touchstone." Surman said.

The assistant looked at Surman with confusion, and Surman continued to explain: "For us, the reason why Taylor is valuable is that he was once a boxing champion and the ruler of the heavyweight boxing world. If he was an ordinary boxer, would I pay attention to him personally? If Taylor is now unable to defeat Sanders, it means that he no longer has the strength of a boxing champion. A boxing champion with ordinary strength is not worth our investment in more resources. Just imagine, who would pay attention to the game of croaking chickens?"

"But Taylor should have a lot of fans. From this point of view, he should have some commercial value." The assistant spoke.

"In the game with Hayfield back then, Taylor bit someone's ear. This is almost the biggest scandal in the boxing world in decades! If you can't beat it, bite someone's ear. If it were you, would you support such a boxer?" Surman asked back.

The assistant laughed dryly, then shook his head. Surman continued: "Taylor was a troublesome guy when he was young. You should still remember why he was in jail for that time? Rape! To be honest, if he was just an ordinary boxer, I might have removed him from WBC long ago!"

...

"Coach Li, one of my opponents has come out after I comeback is Sanders, the 'trench'." Taylor's expression seemed a little solemn.

"'Trenches' Sanders? I really haven't heard of his name." Li Dai obviously didn't know much about the boxing industry. Apart from those top well-known boxing champions in the world, Li Dai did not know anyone else, nor did he hear the name of Sanders. So Li Dai took out his mobile phone and searched for information about "Trenches" Sanders on it.

Taylor on the opposite side directly introduced to Li Dai: "Sanders is 26 years old this year and is a rising star in the heavyweight boxing world in the past three years. When I was suspended, he had just made some fame. Currently, he ranks tenth among the WBC Gold Belt Challengers."

The gold belt is a gold medal in boxing. Only those who have won the gold belt can be become the "boxing champion".

In the boxing organization, the strongest one in a certain level is naturally the owner of the gold belt, while the person in the top fifteen points in the same level is the challenger of the gold belt. These fifteen people are ranked first by the points, and the challenger of the gold belt is the challenger of the gold belt, the second is the second challenger, and so on.

These points are ranked in the top fifteen. Although there are rankings, they are all qualified to challenge the gold belt. For example, a boxer who is ranked 15th in points and becomes the 15th challenger, which means he just got the qualification to challenge the gold belt. However, he doesn't have to defeat the top fourteen boxers one by one, nor does he have to win the points to the first place, but can directly challenge the boxing champion of that level. If he wins, then the gold belt is his and he becomes the new boxing champion. The fourteen people who are ranked first in points are still the challenger.

By the same token, if you don’t make it to the top fifteen, you won’t even be qualified to challenge the gold belt.

Heavyweight is a relatively popular level. In the world's top boxing organization like WBC, being able to make your points into the top ten is definitely considered a top player in this level.

Li Dai still knows the basic knowledge of boxing. Although he has never heard of Sanders, after hearing the ranking of the tenth challenger, he also knows that the other party is a tough guy.

"You seem to be very worried. Are you afraid that you will lose the game?" Li Dai continued to comfort him: "This Sanders is a boxer I have never heard of even a name, and you are the boxing champion. I believe you will definitely win!"

"If it were ten years ago, I could handle this guy in one round, but now, I think it would be difficult for me to win this game. I thought that my opponent would be weaker and less difficult in the first game after my comeback, but I didn't expect that WBC had arranged a very difficult opponent for me." Taylor looked unconfident.

"Is this Sanders awesome?" Li Dai asked.

"His nickname is 'trench'. You should know what 'trench' is? During the war, soldiers on the defensive side hid in the trench and shot at the other side. The trench can protect themselves and avoid bullets and shells." Taylor said slowly.

"You mean, this Sanders is very good at defending." Li Dai asked immediately.

Taylor nodded: "In the heavyweight class, there are few boxers with defensive styles, because at the heavyweight class, the power of fists is no longer something that can be resisted by defense. Sanders's style of play is actually more inclined to defensive counterattack, looking for opportunities to damage the opponent during the gap between the opponent's attack. Now, I am just the most afraid of this type of opponent. I would rather face a boxer who fights against me than a boxer like Sanders who fights against defense. He is really too restrained by me."

"It seems you can only fight quickly and try to knock him down at the beginning of the game." Li Dai said with a smile.

"It's probably difficult for me to do this now." Taylor shook his head helplessly: "Looking back now, I really think this comeback may be a mistake. I can even imagine that those young people who want to stand out must be lined up to kick my butt! Then they will say, I defeated Kevin Taylor, which is enough for them to brag for the rest of their lives..."

Li Dai sighed slightly. Confrontational competitive sports are so cruel. Every newcomer tries to step on his seniors to take the lead. It is precisely because of this that many boxing champions will not wait until they grow old and can't fight before retiring. Most people will choose to leave the boxing world decently at the stage of their decline, so as not to be regarded as a stepping stone by those juniors and lose the dignity of boxing champions.
