Bullying too good at martial arts (136)
Alexei Kravets was an unusual champion in many ways.
Most of the heavyweight boxers in Eastern Europe use classic boxing based on tight technique and strong toughness.
Alexander Ushik, Alexander Gvozdyk, Sergey Kovalev, Artur Vetterbiev, too.
From that point of view, Alexei Kravets was an outlier who did not follow the trend.
It was similar in that the basic skills were excellent, but the way to solve the game was completely different.
Unlike Eastern Bloc boxers who don’t punch much and put weight on each shot.
Although Kravets was from Ukraine, he used a ‘Mexican style’.
Fierce boxing with more than 100 punches per round without thinking back.
Thanks to such a risky style, he suffered two defeats in the early stages of his career, but he did not give up and improved his technical perfection.
After integrating the 4 weight classes with fast steps and speed in Geari’s Mexican style, he came to earn the title of ‘invincible cruiser class’.
He was also known for not avoiding strong opponents, contrary to boxing conventions.
When he was a promising player, he fired a promoter who said, ‘Let’s avoid strong players to manage the game’, and negotiated a boxing match directly with his father.
He suffered two defeats because of that, but nothing better explained his personality than those two defeats.
Alexei Kravets He never avoids the strong.
There was no way he could ignore the current situation.
An alien species appears in the peaceful cruiser class and is destroying the ecosystem.
Kravets, on Bobby Arum’s advice, remained silent until Carly Dragunov broke.
“Alexey, you are a champion. That’s also the unified champion of 4 organizations. If so, you should know how to have the appropriate dignity.”
“Okay, what’s the use of all that?”
“Boxing is a gentleman’s sport. Are you going to disappoint your fans?”
“Damn, that guy called Cha Moo Gyeol looks pretty funny.”
“Did Carly come out? I’m sure he’ll clean it up.”
“Sheesh, okay.”
But now things have changed.
The crazy exotic called Kravets, defeating Geary’s number one contender, Dragunov.
With no one to stop him anymore, Kravets did not shy away from his challenge either.
After firing promoter Bobby Arum at a WBA conference room.
Alexei Kravets slumped into the seat where Bobby Arum had just been sitting.
“I will play against the chamoo result.”
“Cravets, that’s…”
“I wouldn’t have said twice.”
Kravets looked back at the WBA executives with bloody eyes and opened his mouth.
“What are you guys afraid of?”
“It’s not that scary…”
“Kuheumm-.”
While everyone was looking at each other’s faces, WBA President Ryan Hopkins opened his mouth.
“Cravets calm down. We are not afraid of chamugyeol.”
“Then why are you blocking this match?”
“…”
“Are you afraid I will lose? Afraid of handing over the proud WBA title to some bastard?”
“It’s not like that.”
President Hopkins shook his head and spoke slowly.
“I don’t think you will lose.”
“Then why…”
“But the history of boxing title fights by players from other sports will remain forever.”
“….”
“We just don’t want to leave such a stain on the history of boxing.”
Chairman Hopkins concluded his words, but Kravets snorted as if he could not understand.
“A stain? I’m sorry, but the stains are already there. That’s a damn big blemish.”
“…”
“You don’t understand? that things have already happened Now is the time for someone to step in and fix this.”
“…”
“Yes, avoiding the strong is a tradition in this industry, so I have no intention of saying anything now. But this time the story is different. Cha Mu-gyeol is not the one who used to roll on this floor. Do you really think this will be forgotten if you just ignore it?”
“….”
“Do you know what the real stain is? It’s this reality. The fact that the entire boxing world is scared off by fighters from MMA and avoiding fights. You guys are making the worst stain in boxing history.”
At that time, a member of the committee jumped up from his seat and sighed.
“Still, you can’t hand over the WBA belt to an outsider!”
“….”
“Do you know the value of that belt? The real meaning of the history contained in that belt…”
“Really? Will the value remain the same after avoiding this match?”
“!”
“The WBA belt is proof that you are the best boxer in the world. I know that. So I hung it in the middle of my room. Although it spoils the interior like shit.”
“Then why…”
“But what value is there to the belt you saved by running away?”
“….”
“Everyone dig into your ears and listen carefully.”
Kravets inhaled and puffed out his chest as if to announce something.
“I say one last time. I’m going to fight for the car and the belt.”
“….”
“If that match isn’t made, I’m going to retire, so keep that in mind. It’s not like a temporary retirement. It means that I will never be in the ring again until I die.”
“!”
At the word retirement, some executives made a fuss.
Even Chairman Hopkins in the center hardened his complexion.
But Alexey Kravets did not blink an eye and concluded.
“As everyone knows, I’m a guy who does it if he has to.”

[Hollywood star Matthew Damon “I intend to support everything for the success of this match. ”]
[99.8% of MMA fans “I want a match between Kravets and Cha Mu-gyeol.”]
2026 was truly a year of cataclysm in the fighting world.
Moogyeol Cha won the WFC belt for the first time, and as soon as he won the belt, he entered the boxing world and knocked out WBC 2nd place Bishop Cole in the first round.
After that, he returned to the MMA floor and had a defensive fight with Gilbert Johnson.
As soon as he successfully fought his first defense, he stepped back into the ring and took down WBA No. 1 Carly Dragunov with a level of skill.
At the center of all the topics was the tea mu-gyeol.
Cha Mu-gyeol earned about 18.5 million dollars (approximately 20.4 billion won) from a boxing match against Gilbert Johnson and Carly Dragunov.
With the money, Cha Moo-gyeol bought a mansion in Orange County, California, and finally brought his father to the United States.
It was a townhouse with thorough security and security, but despite this, reporters and paparazzi were always swarming around his house.
In just two years, he became the most popular Asian in America.
And now he is about to take an unprecedented step once again.
While holding the WFC championship belt, the mark of the strongest in MMA, he challenges the WBA belt, the mark of the strongest in boxing.
An event that seemed impossible half a year ago, but Cha Mu-gyeol defeated Carly Dragunov and Alexei Kravets responded to Cha Moo-gyeol’s provocation, and the fight began to materialize.
Of course, at first, most fans did not believe in the realization of this dream match.
It is a long-standing tradition in the industry to blow rice cakes and draw aggro, and it was common for matches that were firmly believed to be realized to be canceled right around the corner.
However, when even the conservative WBA published an article with a nuance that seemed to affirm Kravetz vs. Cha, the public opinion began to stir.
“Is this crazy match really happening?”
“What is WBA?”
“Cravets cut the promoter again?”
“Bobby Arum is probably going to die of a stomach ache.”
“Probably the match fee will come out at least 30 million dollars.”
“If there’s a PPV bonus on top of that… uh fuck.”
“Oh, how are you really waiting for this match?”
“I was excited at McGregor too, but I can’t expect a sense of comparison with then.”
“of course. Cha Moo-gyeol is someone who beat boxers by boxing.”
Of course, McGregor vs. Mayweather was a topic that encompassed the entire district, but Cha Moo-gyeol vs. Kravets felt a little different.
McGregor vs Mayweather, no matter how much topical it was, the general consensus was that it was just a circus match.
No matter how much McGregor flew and crawled, he couldn’t beat Mayweather in boxing.
It was a game where the point of watching was ‘how hard you fight’ or ‘can you hit even one hit’ rather than ‘who wins’.
However, opinions were divided from the direction of the match between Cha Mu-gyeol and Krabetz.
Of course, this time, Moogyeol Cha was the underdog, but since he beat Kali Dragunov one-side, there were often people who expected Cha Moogyeol to win.
[I unconditionally believe in tea integrity. I expected Ariel Watson to win without a car match]
[Crazy man, Watson is a pro-WFC reporter]
[I believe in Watson and bet on car perfect]
[The payout is over 3x, so you’re burning this?]

Ah, there are still a lot of rookies]
[Guys, I’m going to bet full on the game being canceled]
[Common sense, this match will be a success what? Do business for a day or two?]
However, contrary to the expectations of some netizens, the WBA announced a schedule for a new cruiserweight title match in late fall.
[[Official] WBA’s next title match, Alexei Kravets vs. tea, no decision confirmed.]

[All tickets for the WBA title match were sold out as soon as the PPV opened and 2 million tickets were sold at the same time… The best pace in the history of martial arts.]
Alexei Kravets vs. Car flawless.
Contrary to everyone’s expectations, the WBA and WFC managed to come to an agreement on this match.
In December 2026, the two fighters will face off at New Madison Square Garden in New York, which can accommodate a total of 40,000 people.
Even after the initial sale, PPVs continued to sell like crazy.
The price of scalping tickets soared to 30,000 dollars (approximately 35 million won), proving interest in the game.
The moment when people around the globe gathered attention on this monumental match-up.
Mugyeol was more thoroughly focused on preparing for the game than ever before.
* * *
Orange County in LA, a week before the game.
Moo Gyeol and Dong Gil did morning roadwork together.
“Heh heh…”
“Father, are you okay?”
“Of course, don’t worry about me heh heh…”
Dong-gil seemed to be out of breath at any moment, but he ran beside Innocent.
In the meantime, to my amazement, I found some paparazzi pointing cannon lenses at me, and threw branches at me.
“Look! Put away your camera! Are you going to take responsibility for my son’s condition?”
At his bluff, the paparazzi scattered like a swarm of minnows.
Only then did Dong-gil take a deep breath as if he was satisfied, wiping his sweat.
“Now my father lives with you, so I should be able to help at least this much.”
“You can rest at home.”
“no. Your son is playing the most important game in the world.”
Saying that, Dong-gil grabbed Mu-gyeol’s arms proudly.
“How are you feeling?”
“good.”
“Hey guy, be a little more specific.”
It was a bit awkward, but Mugyeol said his honest feelings.
“Best ever. It’s better to have your father by your side.”
“Is that so? That’s good.”
Dong-gil turned his head, touching his nose as if embarrassed.
Mugyeol smiled at his father.
“Don’t worry, father. This game is just a passing point for me.”
“Yes, you haven’t forgotten what your father said.”
“of course.”
“Never get hurt. Understand?”
“I can’t guarantee that.”
“what?”
Dong-gil frowned, but this time he couldn’t help it.
Alexei Kravets’s strength is real.
“I will still win.”
“OK. I will support this father with all my heart.”
Juvis did everything in his power to help Mugyeol lose weight, and the fact that Donggil was by his side made Mugyeol calm.
Although, of course, some persistent paparazzi bothered Mugyeol.
Kang Hye-min of ‘Fight Dog’ gave unexpected help.
“Flawless player! I cleaned up all the paparazzi.”
“yes? how?”
“I called the paparazzi paparazzi.”
“…?”
“Whoops. Even those stalkers have to suffer to know.”
“…??”
“Anyway, no one will bother you anymore. Don’t worry!”
…Always for the sake of integrity, it was Kang Hye-min who was somewhat radical.
Thanks to everyone’s dedicated efforts, Mugyeol was able to maintain its best condition.
Time passed like that, and the morning of the historic WBA title match finally dawned.
