Bullying is too good at martial arts (172)
– The match against Kyle has been confirmed. The schedule is as you wished. You’ll be fighting in the main event of WFC 505 in April.
A call from matchmaker Jack Shelby made Kyle Chandler clenched his fist.
“All right. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Shelby.”
– It’s a five-round match, okay?
“No problem.”
– Well, if you two fight, there won’t be a full round.
“Perhaps it will.”
– good. Then good luck Kyle.
Good luck. It’s a bit bleak for a matchmaker’s final greeting.
However, it is not unreasonable to wish good luck to his next opponent since he made the all-time champion impossible to recover from in the previous match.
Didn’t all the other light heavyweight fighters avoid fights with no results?
But Kyle Chandler didn’t shy away from challenging Innocent.
It’s been 3 years since I left ‘Stinger’ with which I was attached and settled in ‘Hammer’.
During that time, he had one fight at middleweight and eight fights at light heavyweight.
With 8 wins, 1 loss and 8 KOs, he has been steadily climbing the rankings.
Most cases of moving gyms from the MMA floor are due to feuds or contract issues, but Kyle’s case was a little different.
From ‘Stinger”s head-level playing coach Joel Khaled to his younger brother Ben Chandler.
Everyone discouraged his transfer, but his decision was firm.
The only reason is because Cha Moo-gyeol was in ‘Stinger’.
As long as he is active as a member of ‘Stinger’, a match with no results will be far away.
From the time of RCF until now, Kyle has been watching the growth of integrity from a closer place than anyone else.
It was Kyle who felt various emotions watching him grow at an unbelievable speed.
When Moo Kyul won the belt for the first time, I was just proud.
But even after that, flawless growth did not stop, and while Kyle stayed, he continued to produce results.
The gap between the two widened and Kyle began to take it for granted without even realizing it.
Then one day, Mugyeol asked Kyle to spar at the gym.
Kyle inadvertently turned down his offer.
“Haha, flawless. Would you help by sparring with me?”
“…okay? okay.”
Mugyeol turned around without saying anything, but Kyle was shocked by his own remarks.
At that moment, he realized that he was unknowingly acknowledging the gap between himself and Innocent.
Since when did this happen?
The friends who used to stand shoulder to shoulder exchanging wins and losses have now gone so far that you can’t see their backs.
‘Stinger’ is like a hometown I’ve been fond of.
However, if you can’t even accept a sparring request from a colleague, there’s no reason to stay here anymore.
Let’s go.
That’s how Kyle became a player belonging to ‘Hammer’.
Nicholas Armstrong, the head of ‘Hammer’, was a completely different personality from Joel Khalid.
“Chapong Galaxy, are you from Nak Muai?”
“yes.”
“Then you’ll be good at hitting!”
“You were an NCAA All-American, Kyle Chandler, right?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Then you’ll be good at hitting!”
“……?”
“Haha, I’ll teach you how to hit hard!”
First hit, second hit.
Compared to ‘Stinger’, which produces a well-balanced all-rounder, ‘Hammer’ focused on improving hitting ability.
“Wrestlers can be great strikers because their neck muscles are good and springy. Look at your brother Ben Chandler. That guy did some wrestling too, but now he only fights with weird punches, right?”
“you’re right.”
“Kyle, you can be the best striker. I will raise you!”
“thank you.”
“To move the gym to catch up with a friend, there is no such romantic man in the world these days. Do you like it!”
As Armstrong said, Kyle Chandler had a talent for hitting.
He has proven his batting ability by striking in seven of his last eight KOs.
As he piled up his victories, he steadily studied integrity.
I didn’t miss a single day of training in order to face him someday.
Finally, when the unmatched match was confirmed, Nicholas Armstrong concentrated all of ‘Hammer”s coaching manpower on him.
“Okay, let’s buy it and give it a shot. Our ‘Hammer’ is going to get the car perfect!”
Under him, Kyle went to training with more motivation than ever.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the past three years of penance were for this one match.
“How are you, Kyle? Do you have the confidence to defeat Innocent?”
“No, to be honest, I’m not sure.”
“You are too honest. Well, seeing him fight, it seems that even Perseus could fold it in half and pound it!”
“But at least I don’t want to leave any regrets.”
“I see.”
“Because I can’t go back to how it was before.”
“That won’t happen. Just by leaving ‘Stinger’ and coming here, you’ve already broken your shell.”
Armstrong chuckled and asked Kyle a question.
“Is there anything else you need? Or something to worry about.”
“If you’re worried…”
Kyle hesitated for a moment, then smiled bitterly.
“I’m a bit worried about that, because he seems to be falling out with Ben lately.”
“It’s a matter of brothers and sisters.”
Kyle went to ‘Hammer’, but Ben stayed with ‘Stinger’.
In the first place, Ben, who was less competitive than his older brother Kyle, just wanted to be a perfect friend.
When Kyle left ‘Stinger’, Ben was the one crying and clinging to him.
That’s why I didn’t like this match either.
Perhaps because of that, the Chandler brothers were quite friendly, but at some point, communication between the two gradually decreased.
“Kyle’s brother’s business will work out someday. I have an older brother, but I’ve never really listened to him.”
“…….”
“Time usually solves such problems. You just focus on the game.”
Of course, with time, everything will be fine.
However, since Kyle was always with Ben, he was concerned about the distance between him and his brother.
‘It’s a difficult opponent even if I just focus on training.’
In the middle of training like that, trying hard to get my mind together.
On the way home from training, Ben Chandler is waiting for Kyle.
“…Ben?”
Ben still had a look on his face that he couldn’t understand.
“Brother, I still don’t know.”
“…….”
“Do you really have to fight Mugyeol to feel refreshed?”
“Ben.”
“If hyung and mugyeol beat each other in the octagon and fight, who should I cheer for?”
“…….”
“Whom should I help with training?”
Ben couldn’t understand Kyle, but Kyle understood Ben.
Ever since they became friends, Ben has thought of Mugyeol as special as his own brother.
It’s only natural to feel confused between them.
“I’m sorry, Ben.”
“I didn’t mean to ask for an apology.”
“But…”
“I’m rather sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing?”
“Still, he’s your brother, but he can’t help you with anything.”
“…….”
“I apologized to Moo Gyeol too. Because he can’t help either.”
Ben, who had played more rounds with Kyle than anyone else, knew the playstyles and weaknesses of the two very well.
But he couldn’t easily give advice to anyone.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t help you anyway. I wanted to say this.”
I wanted to make a blunt apology, but it was Kyle with a bad heart.
“I’m sorry too. And thank you for understanding.”
“Because you still don’t understand?”
When Ben said that, he was about to turn around and add one last word.
“…Still, if I had to cheer for just one person.”
“……?”
“If I have to cheer for just one person, I will cheer for you.”
“Really?”
“We all lost in sparring recently.”
“Thanks Ben.”
“okay. Fight nicely without regrets fighting.”
“i get it.”
“And come back to ‘Stinger’ even later. Everyone is missing you.”
Like a good guy
Kyle gave Ben a light hug and went home feeling more at ease.
‘I thought Ben would cheer for Innocent,’
Kyle was energized just by being supported by his younger brother.
The next day, Kyle came to work 30 minutes before camp started and hit the punching bag.

[Nicholas Armstrong “Kyle’s condition is better than ever.”]
After the match was confirmed, Mugyeol was repeatedly asked the same question.
‘Why did you receive a defensive battle?’
In fact, no one would criticize him even if he put down the belt and went straight to the moon.
Those who were expecting Mugyeol’s heavyweight challenge in their hearts, tilted their heads at Mugyeol’s defense at the light heavyweight division.
‘Is it necessary to start a defensive battle at this timing?’
Moreover, Kyle Chandler is regarded as an underdog against Mugyeol.
Except for the very beginning of his career, he had never surpassed flawless, so most expected an easy victory for flawless.
However, Moo Kyul’s thoughts were a little different.
Any other player would have been a bit worried about receiving a defensive battle, but Kyle Chandler has to fight unconditionally.
He was the one who knew better than anyone why Kyle left ‘Stinger’.
How much help did you get from Kyle?
Receiving this match was no different from Mugyeol’s responsibility.
Besides, the game doesn’t seem to be as easy as people expected.
Kyle knows integrity better than anyone else, and he must have been stepping up for this match for three years.
Mugyeol should do his best to prepare for the match.
8 weeks of intensive training plus extreme training at the ‘Legendary Gym’ camp.
All of Stinger’s players exclaimed in admiration for his tension.
“Are you going to train like that after working so hard in the match with Bones?”
“I can’t even imitate. I will not live like that.”
“Of course Matt. If that was possible, you would have become a welterweight champ too?”
But it was a natural thing for Mugyeol.
If you’re a man, you know how to repay kindness without forgetting it.
The way to repay the kindness you received from Kyle is to climb to the top of the Octagon with 100% perfect condition.
Kyle would want that too.
While everyone admired his flawless enthusiasm, only Ben Chandler looked worried.
“…What should I do with my brother?”

[WFC 505 Champion Moogyeol Cha is back in the Octagon after 3 months!! His opponent is old friend Kyle Chandler!! Although he is evaluated as an underdog, his recent record is as good as he is!!]
[In the recent light heavyweight division, no player has as good a record as Kyle Chandler!! Kyle Chandler, who is on a winning streak with classic wrestling and excellent blows from ‘Hammer’!!
] [In an interview with Cha Moo-gyeol, he expressed his opinion that ‘he might be a more difficult opponent than Johnny Bones’!! It must be a burden for him to compete as Top Dogg!!]
[On the other hand, Kyle Chandler climbed into the Octagon with an expression of no pressure!! We will soon find out where the light heavyweight belt will go!!]
Beep-.
The round started with the sound of the buzzer, and Moo-gyul and Kyle looked at each other and headed to the center of the octagon.
Touk-.
A touch glove that did not exist in the match against Johnny Bones.
The two exchanged eye contact without speaking.
However, as soon as the glove touch was over, Kyle Chandler changed the atmosphere and began to attack fiercely.
woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-!
A one-two-middle combination that is unique to the ‘Hammer’ players.
After lightly beating the top of the flawless guard.
Jjaak-.
As if not giving full counter timing, the combination is lightly finished with a calf kick.
[It was Kyle Chandler who struck first!! Brave!! Cha Mu-gyeol, who is good at counter attacks, succeeded in a good combination and earned blows!!] [
I didn’t take any damage thanks to Cha Moo-gyeol’s strong guard, but it’s unpleasant!! The shorter reach is Kyle Chandler, but he dug in at good timing, right? It is also a scene where you can see that ‘Hammer’ Jim’s batting training is excellent!!]
“Whoa-.”
At first glance, it seemed that the combination was successful, but it was a trembling moment for Kyle.
Kyle knew very well how explosive speed Mugyeol had and how strong punches he could deliver in a confined space.
If you give it even a chance, it will stretch out on the canvas right away.
Mistakes are unacceptable.
This time, Mugyeol extended a long jab and attacked Kyle’s face.
Whiik-.
After dodging the jab with a sway back, he returned to the side and hit the body jab.
Pumpkin-!
A punch focused only on contact, embarrassing to even call it a blow.
However, in order to deal with Cha Mu-gyeol, you have to throw your fists like this.
It’s because he’s a monster who can hit the counter at any time even if his swing gets a little bigger.
Papabak-.
After continuing to inflict ambiguous blows and making his intentions unknown.
“!”
That means you have to embarrass that monster with an anomalous attack.
[Oh Kyle Chandler moves aggressively!! Unexpectedly, Kyle leads the first round!! It’s a strange move!!]
[Kyle moves and Cha Mugyeol responds!! Kyle Chandler is doing better than people expected!!]
