"Huaxia Youth Daily" stated that such a feat had never occurred in the history of global boxing, and now it was happening through Link. Using his indomitable iron fists, Link defeated one opponent after another, showcasing the pride and vigor of Huaxia n.

Dostic audiences who watched these reports and videos were thrilled and spirited, seeing Link as an idol and a hero.

Beyond dostic dia, Asian countries' dia outlets also marveled at Link's accomplishnts in professional matches.

Japanese dia remarked that Link, being able to KO Shinsoji Temple in a single round, proved his talent within the middleweight division, potentially ranking him among the top five in the world, with a chance to beco a world champion in one of the four major organizations.

Philippine dia dubbed Link the "second Pacquiao," suggesting that his future achievents might rival those of Pacquiao.

Korean dia praised Link as "Asia's Young Superman," noting that his achievents in boxing symbolize the gradual rise of the sport in Asia, drawing global attention.

Under the operation of top promotion companies, Western dia had also begun reporting on Link's accomplishnts since entering professional boxing.

"New York Tis" reported that the Huaxia athlete Link, who won three golds and one silver at the Athens Olympics, entered professional boxing in October and now boasts a professional record of 10 wins, all by KO. He is making an aggressive push toward the world champion golden belt, posing a challenge to the newly crowned middleweight champion Bernard Hopkins.

Britain's "The Guardian" comnted that after Pacquiao, another rising star from Asia is erging in the boxing world.

"Boxing Ring" magazine said that Link's record of 10 wins and 10 KOs in professional matches is remarkable. No one has achieved this before, but on another note, this highlights the lack of strong boxers in the Asian professional boxing ranks. It suggested that in the Western boxing scene, Link would not be able to accomplish such a record.

"Interesting!"

Link set down "Boxing Ring" magazine and called Sean Gibbons, asking him to make a dia statent. Link wanted to challenge "Boxing Ring" magazine to a bet.

If he could KO all his future opponents, including Hoyle and Hopkins, in a single round, the magazine must donate $1 million to the International Red Cross. If he failed, Link would voluntarily donate $1 million to the sa organization. He asked, "Does the magazine dare to bet?"

"Emmm, Link, are you sure you want to do this?"

Sean Gibbons asked over the phone.

"Yes, I am sure."

"Do you think you can KO Hopkins in one round? Link, I know you're exceptional, and I believe you can defeat Hopkins. However, Hopkins is 39 years old and has participated in 49 matches. His experience is vast, and his fighting style is cunning. Knocking him out in a single round—that's sothing no one has ever achieved."

"Does it matter? By betting with 'Boxing Ring' magazine, I indirectly challenge middleweight king Hopkins. Win or lose, my upcoming matches will attract worldwide dia attention. Attention equals wealth, so why not do it? You can inform Bob Arum about this; I believe he'll support my approach."

In a high-rise apartnt in East District, Capital City, Link spoke into his phone. Hearing the doorbell ring, he quickly said goodbye to Sean Gibbons, hung up, and went to open the door.

"This....."

In the Las Vegas office of a top promotion company, Sean Gibbons looked at the disconnected call, his brow furrowed deeply.

Over the past month, he had traveled across Asia with Link, helping coordinate arrangents for matches.

Watching Link unleash his strength on the boxing ring, defeating one opponent after another, Gibbons felt exhilarated. He knew he had chosen the right person and felt confident in putting his bets on Link.
