Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 935 - 654 Gold Medal and Bonus3

Moreover, no matter which banned substance is used, it cos with significant aftereffects. After multiple uses, it can weaken the body or even cause it to collapse.

Since 2003, Link has been continuously competing, and his performance has been improving steadily.

In this world championship, Link competed in high-intensity matches for seven consecutive days. If he had truly used banned substances, he wouldn’t have been able to endure it.

Furthermore, the techniques and strength Link demonstrated in boxing are achievents that no banned substance could possibly enable.

If such a drug truly existed, used on soldiers, Huaxia’s army could sweep across the globe.

Over the past year, the nation would never have allowed Link to go to the United States to compete.

This is also why, even though foreign dia expressed doubts, no one truly believed it.

On the morning of the 17th, Link and the track and field team mbers returned to Capital City by plane from Hong Kong Island. Thanks to remarkable performances that broke multiple historical records for Huaxia’s track and field team, Link and Liu Xiang garnered significant dia attention.

Under the arrangent of the National Sports Bureau, Link participated in seven back-to-back newspaper and television interviews within five days. CCTV dia labeled him as ’Superman Link’ for the first ti during the interviews.

It’s said that this label was inspired by a leader who had watched Link’s competition results and provided this evaluation.

dia outlets quickly picked up on it, referring to Link as ’Superman.’

"Link, how does it feel to be Superman?"

At Houhai Music Bar, Xia Yu asked with a beer bottle in hand.

"Not bad."

Link shrugged his shoulders.

"Link, you’re truly amazing—flourishing in both sports and culture, and still looking so handso. I really can’t figure out how you do it."

Gao Xiaosong fanned himself and stared at Link’s face as he spoke.

"What I admire the most is Link’s ability to make money. According to the news, during his last match against that Hopkins guy, he earned 20 million US Dollars in less than three minutes. Converted to RMB, that’s over 100 million—so enviable!"

Sun Nan, sporting spiky hair, said while shaking his leg.

"Making money is one thing; Link won seven gold dals at the Olympics and the World Championships. That kind of honor can’t be bought with any amount of money."

Zheng Jun chid in.

"Link, is boxing really that profitable? Earning over 100 million RMB in less than three minutes?"

Pu Shu asked while sipping his beer.

"Of course not. First and foremost, promotional efforts for matches cost money, just like producing albums or filming movies—it all requires investnt in marketing. These expenses are deducted from the prize money. In reality, over 60% of professional boxing matches lose money. Additionally, I’m backed by a top-tier promotion company that helps with marketing and organizing matches. The money earned has to be divided among the company and the coaching team. After everything, I end up with half of the earnings."

Link explained.

"Even half isn’t bad—earning 10 million per match, 100 million US Dollars annually from ten matches. Wow! Participate in more matches, and you might beco the richest person in the country!"

Xia Yu exclaid in astonishnt.

Link shook his head and felt compelled to educate these boxing novices.

Boxing matches are like music albums. If a singer releases one or two albums per year, fans might buy them. But if they release five or ten albums consecutively, fans won’t have that much money to support them.

Boxing is similar. After becoming a World Boxing Champion, competing in two or three matches a year is feasible. Any more than that, and there won’t be an audience.

The promotional expenses might not be recouped, causing the company to lose money.

Furthermore, like celebrities, a boxer’s fa and appearance fees in the boxing ring fluctuate; they cannot remain evergreen.

At their peak, a match might fetch several million US Dollars. When they fade out, even 100,000 US Dollars per match might not attract spectators.

For example, Tyson and John Ruiz were both WBA World Boxing Champions, yet their appearance fees differed by several orders of magnitude.

As Link is a Huaxia boxer, he’s well-liked dostically but not necessarily abroad. Thus, the prize for his next match is unpredictable.

After hearing his explanation, the group finally understood the flow of money in boxing matches, which isn’t much different from producing music albums.

They no longer envied Link’s ability to make money quickly. In fact, among the ten or so people present, many were already earning at a remarkable pace.

"Link, I’m planning a concert in November. Would you be willing to be my guest perforr?"

Pu Shu asked.

"As long as I don’t have a match, I’d be happy to."

Link nodded.
