Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 053 Freak

During the Super Middleweight competition, other weight class competitions were also taking place simultaneously.

However, the performance of the United States team in this qualification competition had been worrying.

Apart from Link, Heavyweight's Deontay Wilder, Light Heavyweight's Joe Smith, and two won Boxers who advanced, all other Boxers were blocked in the third round.

In the Heavyweight competition, an interesting scene occurred in the second round where Deontay Wilder encountered xico's Andy Ruiz; in fact, both were Aricans, with Andy Ruiz just representing the xico team.

During the draw, it so happened that the two were paired against each other, which allowed the Cubans to witness a battle between Aricans.

At that ti, Link was also watching from below the stage, and no matter whether Deontay Wilder or Andy Ruiz landed a hit, the Cubans would burst into loud cheers, making the atmosphere extrely lively.

In the end, Deontay Wilder defeated Andy Ruiz, who had just moved up to Heavyweight, with a score of 27:18, successfully moving into the third round.

"Link, the Cubans might be manipulating the draw process; be careful,"

Ed, the coach, said with a frown.

Link nodded his head; he was not surprised by this.

Although the Olympics is the largest sporting event for humanity, it's filled with too many political factors, so in the competitions, there's never a lack of political maneuvers.

Especially in Boxing, since the results are given by the scoring of five judges at the venue, and these judges are arranged by the organizers, they can completely choose to give scores or not based on the situation, manipulating the outcos of the matches.

For example, during the 1988 Seoul Olympic Gas, Roy Jones Jr. had the South Korean Boxer Park Hee-hong completely outmatched, but in the end, Roy Jones Jr. only received a silver dal, which also beca one of the infamous scandals in Olympic history.

Similar incidents were not uncommon in later Olympics.

Olympic Boxing also beca the most prestigious yet unfair competition among all amateur Boxing contests.

However, Link was not worried about this.

His goal was to knock out all opponents, making the scoring judges collectively redundant.

——

The competition moved into the third round from nine to five, where Link encountered the Cuban Boxer Rosniel Iglesias, 27 years old, Black, 188 cm tall, with a reach of 193 cm, and an amateur record of 102 fights, 88 wins, 12 losses, and 2 draws. He had participated in three World Championships and one Olympic Gas.

His best achievent was reaching the quarterfinals in the Olympic Gas and winning a silver dal in the World Championships.

He was also the only second-place contestant in the Aricas Zone qualification who defeated his opponent in the first round and advanced.

A very strong opponent.

Compared to Andrea Berto, his techniques are more versatile, he has almost no flaws in offense and defense, and his speed is more agile. He often lands a punch and quickly pulls back, never giving his opponent a chance to attack, slippery and elusive.

He was also tougher to deal with than the previous opponent, Danny.

"Link, this opponent is tough; are you sure you want to stick with a knockout?"

Ed said, his forehead wrinkled with lines.

Link glanced at him, sowhat speechless.

When they first t, Ed seed to be just over forty, but after only two matches, Ed seed to have aged over a decade, even the wrinkles had deepened, and white stubble was sprouting from his cheeks.

It reminded him of Coach West from across the channel; last ti during the Golden Gloves competition, West had also aged a lot. Was being his coach so brain-racking?

Link felt it wasn't his fault; they were just overthinking.

"Link, I advise you to give up,"

Andrea Berto said shaking his head, "In the last match against Canada's Danny, you nearly failed to achieve a knockout. This ti, facing soone tougher and quicker than Danny, how can you knock him out?"

"Link, I also think it's very difficult, not very realistic,"

Your adventure continues at empire

Jones Fullos said.

Link watched the video of his opponent Rosniel, saw him dodging flexibly on the ring, moving very fast — knocking him out, let alone hitting him, seed very difficult.

Such a powerful opponent, how to knock him out?

Link pondered for a mont, clenched his fists, and said, "Keep knocking them out. If we really can't beat them, then we'll talk."

"Link, I support you!!"

Andzeje and Morales, thriving on the drama, waved their fists excitedly.

Coach Ed and Andrea Berto shook their heads.

——

The third round of the match had begun.

When Link stepped onto the boxing ring, he saw a man resembling the Wolf King Garnett, a black man formidable in build and fierce in form, looking very tough to deal with.

Did he really have to knock out such a strong man?

The answer was, YES!

Human nature is lazy; when faced with difficulties, if you give yourself an easy way out, nurous more steps downward will follow, eventually sinking to the depths of despair.

This was not what Link wanted to see.

He was a reborn man, one with a special physique. As long as he fought hard and trained continuously, his overall qualities would grow stronger, and perhaps, he might even beco a superhero.

If he gave up trying, satisfied with the status quo, he would gradually grow weaker, becoming ordinary. After losing the reborn advantage, he would then be even less than an ordinary person.

This was not what he wanted to see.

Therefore, Link would not allow himself to relax nor give himself an easy way out. He was determined to defeat these opponents, using them as his sharpening stones, stepping-stones, stepping on their bodies and laurels, marching toward strength.

"Kill!!"

Link clenched his fists, roared angrily, his muscles tensed in explosive power.

"Link, co on!"

The Arican boxing team mbers were cheering for Link from below.

Link waved his fists at them.

Once the match began, he chose to attack aggressively.

His fists swung like hamrs, continuously striking the opponent. Due to limited ti, he wouldn't rest, nor would he give the opponent a chance to stall.

In the first round, Link threw more than 120 punches, but since his opponent was fast with nimble evasive movents, only about forty punches landed, most of which were jab punches with less destructive force.

However, his opponent, Rosneil, had solid muscles, and those forty-plus punches did not significantly hurt him.

"Link, be more flexible in your fighting thod, don't just attack blindly, and be mindful to conserve your energy," Coach Ed advised during the one-minute rest period.

"I understand!"

Upon reentering the ring, Link continued in aggressive mode, using his superfast speed and heavy punches to break through his opponent's defense, hitting his body 9 tis in the second round.

In the later stages of his attack, he discovered a detail that he hadn't noticed on the tape.

Rosneil, during the match, often carelessly lowered his arms, covering the ribs.

He rembered that Rosneil had displayed similar actions in the previous two matches, but because his opponents were weaker than him, the threat was minimal, and the gesture was not very obvious.

After the match started, under his fierce attacks, Rosneil had, at least five tis, let his arms sink to protect his ribs, especially his left ribs, which was almost a subconscious reaction.

Initially, Link hadn't noticed, but once the opponent repeated this motion more than three tis in a round, it was hard for an experienced boxer who had spent years in underground boxing rings not to notice.
