Bullying is too good at martial arts (102)
After the press conference, the reaction of the public and experts was divided.
Most of the light fans praised the hot mic work of the flawless.
Even though he had no contact with Lev Kaczynski, the fact that he naturally created a conflict with just one press conference deserves high praise.
[Is this a preview of the 1st round KO?]
[This guy’s match is fun to watch. It’s like watching McGregor’s ‘Misty Mac’ days before]
[MacGregor was God Gregor back then, he’s cheap]
[But why is he in this situation now…]
[He’s more into boxing and whiskey than MMA now. He seems to be very interested]
[Moogyeol came to WFC not long ago, but all the prophecies came true]
[Well, he scored 11-0 in the rough and sent both RJJ guys into goals]
[If he hits the prophecy this time, he’ll walk the Real McGregor Road]
[Even It is a heavyweight that can be increased to heavyweight]
On the other hand, experts’ opinions were a little different.
It was quite remarkable that the KO notice was made, but the dominant analysis was that the notice came from pressure.
Fighthub’s MMA reporter Dean Herman appeared on Ariel Watson’s podcast and commented on WFC 368.
In that program, Herman described the announcement of a flawless KO as ‘an expression of pressure’.
“Today, we have reporter Dean Herman. Dean You must have seen the WFC 368 press conference, right? WFC heavyweight hot potato Cha Moo-gyeol predicted a 1st round KO. How do you see this?”
“well. The first-round KO preview is nothing more than an expression of pressure.”
“Hmm is it? Why?”
“If you look at Lev Kaczynski’s career, you can see that. 11 wins by decision out of 17 wins It’s not a good record, but it’s proof that he has the ability to lead the game relentlessly. Even out of 5 losses, there is only one KO loss. This means that 15 out of 22 fights were full rounds. That goes back and forth between middleweight and light heavyweight. It’s basically a sign that Cardio is a very good player.”
“Well that’s it.”
Ariel Watson, a representative ‘tea flawless sasaeng fan’, cleared her throat as if somewhat uncomfortable, but Dean Herman’s negative predictions continued.
“On the other hand, how about Cha Mu-gyeol? Throughout his career, he has been on a winning streak with 1st or 2nd round KOs. I don’t even have the experience of fighting on stage at the WFC level. In addition, you need to lose weight from a heavyweight physique to a middleweight. My current weight is around 100 kg, so I need to lose 15 kg.”
“Haha, that’s not a problem. Anthony Johnson once lost 25 kg. Calvin Gastelum also competed in welterweight with a normal weight of 100kg, and Johnny Hendricks was also close to 100kg, but he went up to the welterweight contender.”
“That is correct. However, you should keep in mind that this is your first weight loss. Besides, now there are no IV fluid packs to help regain weight after weight loss like back then.”
“That’s what…”
“In other words, you won’t have enough stamina to digest a full round.”
Ariel Watson couldn’t find anything to refute in a fairly logical analysis.
“Closing the fight early in the first round means revealing the only route you can win. Of course Kaczynski knows this too. Conversely, from Kaczynski’s point of view, as long as he doesn’t get killed early in the first round, he’ll be able to secure a decent victory.”
“is it so? Haha, no matter how I look at it, I think Mugyeol will win.”
“On what grounds?”
“That’s right.”
Ariel Watson pondered, but there was no logical flaw in Dean Herman’s argument.
It was not that he doubted the undisputed victory, but it was also true that there was no basis for that belief.
In the end, Ariel Watson had no choice but to give a principled answer.
“Well… that’s how I feel.”
“How do you feel? Haha, you are saying something that is not like Mr. Watson.”
“Then shall we make a bet?”
“great. You can’t miss an opportunity to earn money.”
Even though it was the opening match of the main card, the attention was huge.
Ariel Watson previewed all the matches of WFC 368 on the podcast, but the main event, the title match and the no-decision match, were the only ones that exceeded 1 million views.
“Certainly a star is a star.”
All of North America was buzzing with anticipation for the flawless debut match.
Even after that, the tour schedule continued, but Mugyeol did not say long words.
“It’s over with a 1st round KO. In February 2024, everyone will know. Again, my prediction was correct.”
“1st round KO? You’re fucking! Do you think I’ve ever been KO’d in the first round before?”
“Then, you can try it this time. When you open your eyes, you will probably be in a hospital. I’ll send you to sleep anesthesia in comfort.”
The rant was enough to make the viewer worried, but Mugyeol was not nervous.
It’s good that the poor guy didn’t come out as an opponent.
Although he wanted the middleweight belt more than anyone else, he also knew that it was not good to have many fights in the middleweight division.
Excessive weight loss is one of the factors that eat away at a player’s life.
You have to reduce the number of matches as much as possible, fight against high-rankers as much as possible, and approach the big championship quickly.
That’s why defeat is even more unacceptable.
Kaczynski was not an easy opponent, but if you prepare thoroughly, you can definitely win.
Practicing Jiu-Jitsu with Artur Marcelo every night.
wrestling with Kurt Angle.
Because it was a flawless sparring with Roy Jones Jr.
Fighting know-how through true training of legends was accumulated every day.
woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo–!!
“Geuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…!”
“What if I stretch out like this!”
His sparring with Roy Jones Jr. was brutal.
Whenever he wanted, he changed the style of an infighter and an outboxer, and played with integrity to his heart’s content.
His fists were so fast that he couldn’t possibly counter them.
The staff were agile as if they were using skills in the game.
PABABABABABAK–!!
“You were so slow! Even my aunts and grandmothers would avoid fists like that!”
“Shit!”
“Don’t fight with your mouth, hit it with your fist!”
It’s not just the fist count, the evasion technique is heavenly.
On top of that, the provocation technique that intimidates the opponent is extremely celestial.
If it looks like it’s going to get hit, it exquisitely runs out of the reach.
The sight of him shaking his waist and provoking him at the timing of retrieving his fist was so nasty that it made my brain cramp.
However, Mugyeol failed to hit him with a single hit.
“Hee-B-H-H-.”
Roy Jones Jr. in his heyday was a human who could be called a boxing god.
“Whoa Whoa Are you tired already? I can do 40 more rounds!”
“Oh really…”
“It’s strange that there’s a lot of energy in this gym.”
Moreover, since he was a fictional character, his stamina did not decrease.
That means you can’t knock him out until you knock him out with a punch.
I felt a wall against Artur Marcelo and Kurt Angle, but Roy Jones Jr. was a wall on a whole other level.
Unlike Jiu-Jitsu or wrestling, which initially had no pride, boxing was ranked as ‘A’ only with its pure, flawless skills, so the gap got even bigger.
But Mugyeol did not give up.
“Brother, let’s go play one more game.”
“good! That guts!”
Pew woo woo woo woo woo woo woo–!!
He swung his fists even while being beaten nonstop.
“Khehehe guess it!”
While being tossed around by all the steps, I kept an eye on his movements.
10 hours, 20 hours, 30 hours….
As the days passed, the time at the ‘Legendary Gym’ accumulated exponentially.
Even in the confrontation with Roy Jones Jr., who seemed to have no answer, Moo Kyul gradually found an answer.
Huung-.
“Oh-! You almost fucked up!”
Now his fists slowly began to touch Roy Jones Jr.’s body.
At some point, Roy Jones Jr. stopped dancing with steps or playing tricks with his fists spinning.
The aspect of Mugyeol aggressively pushing him was also directed quite a lot.
The 1928th round before we knew it.
This time, Moo Kyul exquisitely avoided Roy Jones Jr.’s lead blow and returned to the square.
Poo poo poo-.
Step-in by hitting the body with a left double.
After a sharp dig, an elaborate right hand straight aimed at Roy Jones Jr.’s chin.
‘Did I get it right this time?’
A clean attack combination that would make even the undisputed fists admire.
However, Roy Jones Jr. responded by backstepping desperately.
“Uuuuuuuuu-!”
Whoa oh oh oh oh-.
Roy Jones Jr. let out a victory roar as he knocked Mugyul down with a deadly light counter.
“Child, you are far from defeating me! Where are you coming in!”
However, Mugyeol collapsed on the canvas and laughed.
I finally saw the composure in Roy Jones Jr.’s face.
Now we just have to go a little further.
A little further from here…!
* * *
Only 6 weeks left until match day.
It was flawless to execute the ‘preparation protocol’, but this time, instead of weight training, only flexibility and cardio training was performed.
Since I had to lose weight very soon, I had to reduce weight training to a minimum.
I had a lot of money, so I used the money to hire the best weight loss trainer.
In North America, Mike Dolce and weight loss trainer Matthew Juvis.
…Somehow, from the name, he was a trainer who seemed to have a good understanding of diet.
With Juvis, Moogyeol started a 6-week weight loss program.
“Originally, weight loss is achieved in one to two weeks. But is Moo-gyeol Cha the first to lose weight this much? So it is much safer to take it slowly over a longer period.”
“Yes, thank you.”
“Unlike Mike Dolce, I never recommend using diuretics or fluid packs. Of course, they are also prohibited by the WFC. As for my weight loss, the safety of the athletes comes first and second.”
“Mr. Juvis, can I lose weight to the middleweight limit?”
“Of course. If you thought you couldn’t pull it out, you wouldn’t have signed the contract, right?”
“If you can’t remove it…”
“I’ll take responsibility for a full refund.”
“Yeah, Juvis!”
That’s how the weight loss plan in pain began.
Reduce food, remove water, and cut unnecessary muscles.
As I moved up to the heavyweight division, the body fat that was attached to me started to burn slowly.
Moisture in the body was also drained sparingly, and the definition of the muscles became more and more clear.
With four weeks left in the game, Mugyeol’s weight was 94kg.
It was a remarkable achievement, but I still had to lose another 9kg before the match weight.
“This is a really tough time.”
The lengthy weight loss schedule gradually took away the latent energy in the flawless body.
Since I couldn’t take in enough nutrients, my strength decreased.
Finally, when the first digit of my weight entered ‘8’, I faced a weight loss to the extent that I often felt dizzy in my daily life.
“Isn’t it hard? It won’t be easy for a 195 cm athlete to lose weight to middleweight.”
“…it’s okay.”
“really?”
“sure.”
However, Mugyeol endured the ordeal with a tenacity that surprised even Coach Juvis.
This is the WFC debut that I have been dreaming of so much.
It was difficult to move the limbs due to the weight loss, but there is no problem.
There were times when I couldn’t even move my limbs on the bed.
Always remembering those moments when it was difficult.
Compared to those days when I stayed up all night in bed thinking only of revenge, this time is like heaven.
No matter how painful it is, isn’t it painful for the WFC debut!
88kg 87kg 86kg….
Thanks to the sincerity of following the weight loss plan thoroughly, the weight was successfully reduced.
Even in the midst of that, Mugyeol did not neglect his skills training at the ‘Legendary Gym’.
As I lost weight, my concentration sharpened like a black-edged knife.
And one night a week before the game.
Mugyeol finally had an accident in the third ‘Legendary Gym’.
Whoa oh oh oh oh-.
Finally, his fist landed a solid blow to Roy Jones Jr.’s temple.
