America is in control

Chapter 59: Pre-game events and first appearance in major newspapers

After the game, Liu will learn from Bob that Mueller received US$600 million in appearance fees, while Holyfield received US$1200 million in remuneration.

These two figures greatly stimulated General Liu.

He once again expressed to Bob his eagerness for a fight.

Bob happily agreed and said that the next game would be arranged for him in the shortest possible time.

After receiving a positive reply from the other party, Liu returned to Los Angeles with his logistics team.

As if he had returned to the previous days, he started training steadily again.

He is still the third child, training, studying, and sleeping almost take up his whole day.

Liu Jiang and Li Ziang have now reached the twelfth grade. After completing the required courses and earning enough grade points, they can apply to enter the university.

There is nothing to say academically. General Liu is not stupid and has enough self-discipline.

Although he is not as good as Li Ziangkeke's A+, he is still in the top 5% of the grade.

As long as he gets another gold belt and the title of boxing champion, USC will definitely not turn him away.

Anthony was officially admitted to Harvard University at the beginning of this year.

Bob’s letter of recommendation played a crucial role.

Since the last time he learned about Robert's resignation from Li Ziang, General Liu had never seen him again.

Robert seemed to have evaporated, completely disappearing from General Liu's life.

The NYPD's investigation results had been sent home a long time ago, but it was because of Robert's sudden disappearance.

Liu Jiang temporarily gave up the idea of ​​suing the other party.

As for Alicia, after she hung up the phone last time, the two of them never contacted Liu Jiang again.

General Liu is not a licker. He has explained everything to the other party so clearly, but the other party is still stubborn.

Knowing clearly that there are tigers in the mountains, we still go to the Tiger Mountains.

Then you can't blame General Liu for being cruel. Not taking the initiative to contact him is his attitude.

As time goes by, it will naturally end.

It just so happens that during this period, Liu will be busy sprinting towards the boxing championship, so he can't even think about romance!

After the baptism of his first professional boxing match, Liu Jiang finally realized the benefits of Rooney as a coach.

The fact that he can KO his opponent in just 15 seconds is proof of this.

On the surface, his training plan looks like heaps of training volume.

In fact, it's not the same thing at all. Rooney's training plan is tailor-made for himself.

First, develop your body's potential to the greatest extent through stable high-intensity training.

Then design a unique play style based on your own characteristics.

This was specifically revealed by Rooney when communicating with General Liu after the game.

He made some slight changes to his training regimen.

Rooney added dodge ball training to General Liu.

He believes that dodge ball training can allow Liu to dodge more flexibly in the ring and reduce the probability of his opponent hitting his head.

At the same time, he asked Liu to keep moving quickly during heavy sandbag training.

The purpose of this is to develop General Liu's conditioned reflex to avoid counterattacks after delivering a powerful punch.

General Liu is fairly accepting of the changes in training.

As long as you can take less punches from your opponent, wouldn't your probability of being KO be reduced a lot?

The days passed like this, and finally good news came from Bob.

Liu's opponent for his next game has been confirmed. The game is scheduled for mid-May and the appearance fee is US$5.

This time the opponent is named Ramon Guerrero, a Cuban from Miami, Florida.

Professional record: 6 wins, 2 losses, 3 KO wins.

After learning the information about his opponent, Liu Jiang's brain twitched and he almost blurted out.

Florida doesn't breed idle people, America's roots are full of ruthless people. Coupled with his status as a La Mongolian, this guy is probably a tough guy!

As usual, Rooney got the opponent's videotape, and he didn't know where he got it.

The two carefully studied their opponent's playing style.

As expected, this guy named Ramon has a strong style and a tough style of play.

To put it simply, he is unwilling to suffer losses and likes to fight head-on with his opponents.

Liu Jiang felt that this opponent did not seem to pose much of a threat to him.

The reason is simple. This person's punching speed is much slower than his own.

Although his strength does not seem weak, what can a missed fist do to him?

After Rooney thought for a while, he came to the same opinion as General Liu.

The two reached a unified opinion, and there were still about ten days left before the competition.
Rooney specially strengthened his dodge training on General Liu during this period.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and on the third day before the start of the game, Liu Jiang and his team arrived in Atlantic City.

Atlantic City, a seaside tourist resort in southeastern New Jersey, USA, is also a famous health resort city.

At its peak, Atlantic City was as famous as Las Vegas.

This time the showdown between General Liu and Ramon is also a back-up match, with a six-round format.

As for the two heavyweight boxers in the main event, Liu Jiang had never heard of their names in his previous life.

Presumably he is not a fighter worthy of special attention.

The venue for the competition is the famous Taj Mahal Hotel in Atlantic City.

After resting in the hotel for a day, Liu will have a pre-match press conference.

The difference from the last press conference is that his appearance order was moved back and ranked third.

Accompanied by the exclusive BGM, Liu Jiang attended the event dressed up. He really dressed up as an ancient Roman emperor and wore it grandly.

Maybe it's because of the clothes on his body, or maybe it's because General Liu has a little bit of a reputation.

The reporters at the scene were much more enthusiastic than the group of reporters last time.

It can be said that Liu Jiang stole the limelight at this press conference and murdered many films at the scene.

Some reporters even asked him questions during the Q&A session.

"John, do you think you're the next Tyson?"

Adhering to the attitude of being low-key and doing things with a high profile, Liu Jiang answered confidently:
"I won't be anyone else, I am who I am, you can call me the new Caesar!"

"Veni! Vidi! Vici!"

Finally, General Liu shouted a declaration, which attracted the attention of everyone present.

After the press conference, Liu returned to the hotel to make final preparations before the game.

It's said to be final preparation, but actually it's just watching the video tape.

Rooney seems to be particularly passionate about video tapes.

Liu Jiang frowned when he heard the video, and he didn't know if this was a stress reaction.

In the locker room, Rooney and General Liu were making tactical arrangements.

Bob quietly opened the door to the locker room and walked in with a newspaper in his hand.

After Rooney finished explaining the tactics, he approached General Liu.

"Boy, look what this is, there's a story about you in the Philadelphia Inquirer!"

General Liu took the newspaper handed to him, glanced at it, and asked with some confusion:
"Isn't it just a report? It's no big deal, right? The local newspapers in Los Angeles have published my reports several times!"

Bob was speechless. He stretched out his finger and tapped the masthead of the newspaper vigorously.

"Boy! This is the "Philadelphia Inquirer", one of the top ten newspapers in the country! Its influence is not comparable to that of those tabloids, do you understand?"
