All-round Athlete

Chapter 696

Lewis had another ghostly look on his face.

Muhammad Ali is not only a legend in the boxing world, but also a legend in the sports world. When Americans choose the best athlete in their hearts, Michael Jordan can only be ranked second, and the first is Muhammad Ali.

The butterfly step is Ali's legendary footwork, which is also known as Ali's sliding step. When people mention Ali, the first thing that comes to mind is the butterfly walk. This kind of smooth sliding step, coupled with Ali's unexpected punches in his movements, will always make all his opponents pale in comparison. His agility and ingenious movement made Ali hit the most entertaining round of boxing. Because this kind of footwork is too elegant, like a butterfly dancing, it is known as the butterfly step. The appearance of the butterfly step has turned Ali's boxing from a sport into an art!

Since the appearance of Ali's butterfly step, countless boxers have wanted to learn this magical footwork, but no one can master it. No heavyweight boxer has Ali's flexible torso, and even if he is mobile enough, he doesn't have Ali's abnormal physical strength.

The range of Ali's butterfly step is larger than that of ordinary steps, and the frequency of movement is also faster, so it seems that Ali's movements will be very flexible, but this also means that it will consume more energy. If you know how to use the butterfly step, you will definitely not be able to last for twelve rounds.

Moreover, in Ali's era, professional boxing was not twelve rounds, but fifteen rounds, and the frequency of attacks between boxers was more than now, so the boxers of that era were very physically strong, and Ali wanted Fifteen rounds with the butterfly step, which shows his strong physical strength.

Any professional boxer will regard Ali as an idol, and so does Lewis. When he was young, he also tried to learn the butterfly step, but unfortunately, at Lewis' level, he couldn't do it like Ali. In the eyes of Ali, the butterfly walk has become an unattainable existence.

It can be said that in the eyes of Lewis, Ali's butterfly walk is like a dream.

But now, Lewis actually saw the butterfly walk on Zhang Guan!

"Butterfly walk! It's a butterfly walk! I'm not mistaken, the elegant movement just now is a butterfly walk! Since Ali retired, I have seen the butterfly walk again, and someone can use the butterfly walk again!" At this moment, Lewis had already Lost the ability to think.

...

Tyson Fury was looking smug at the moment. Next to him, the agent said: "I have negotiated with Zhang Guan's agent team, and the match between you will be held on July 17."

"July 17th, that's still more than half a month away! I thought I needed to find a venue by myself, but I didn't expect that someone would be so willing to host the competition, and our Olympic Organizing Committee would come forward to host it." Tyson Fury said Said.

"And there is a bonus of 1 million pounds and an appearance fee of 3 million pounds." The agent next to him said.

Not all boxing matches are organized by someone. First of all, it costs money to hold the match itself; secondly, the match must be a lot of money. As long as it is not a charity match, the contestants will be given bonuses; the third is the appearance fee. , the more appearance fees are required. So if there are not enough sponsors, sometimes the organizer of a competition will lose money.

The main part of the boxer is composed of two parts. One part is of course the prize money of the game. The higher the level of the game, the more the prize money. In the top league's golden belt competition, the prize money of the game can reach hundreds of millions of dollars.

The other part is the appearance fee. The bigger the boxer is, the more the appearance fee will be. The top boxers in the world will also have hundreds of millions of dollars in appearance fees for a match.

Although Zhang Guan is famous, he is not a professional boxer, and Tyson Fury has not achieved any results yet. He is just a young player with potential, not a well-known boxer. The appearance fee and bonus of the two , and of course not very high. What's more, Sebastian's hosting of the competition is about the British Olympic Committee's money, that is, the public's money. Naturally, it is impossible to throw away tens of millions of pounds. However, given the consumption level of the UK, this money is enough for ordinary people to live a lifetime that's it.

I only heard Tyson Fury ask: "How to divide the appearance fee and bonus? Is it according to the conventional distribution method?"

The bonuses and appearance fees mentioned in boxing matches are a total amount, and the specific distribution of the two fighters needs to be negotiated by both parties. Under normal circumstances, the prize money will go to the winner, while the appearance fee is **** points. The winner gets 60%, while the loser gets 40%. This is a conventional non-matching method. The reason why they don't split the accounts 50-50 is mainly to avoid the situation of fake punches. A split account will make the appearance fee difference of both parties by 20%. This is a very large number, and I believe boxers will not fight fake matches in order to earn more money.

The agent shook his head: "It's not a conventional distribution method. Zhang Guan's agent proposed that the full amount should be shared, the winner gets all, and the loser gets nothing."

"Full share?" Tyson Fuli was taken aback. He didn't expect Zhang Guan to choose such an extreme share method.

"I have negotiated with them about the sharing ratio, but it didn't achieve any results. They insisted that the full share must be shared." The agent said.

"Guy Zhang Guan, doesn't he know the unspoken rules of boxing? How can anyone do such a terrific thing now that he wants to share the full amount! Normally, he would leave some appearance fees for the opponent no matter what. The full share is required. Such an ungentlemanly behavior will become the laughing stock of the boxing world." Tyson Fury said.

"I also reminded them of this, but they obviously didn't care. Zhang Guan's agent team said that Zhang Guan is not a boxer, so he doesn't have to abide by the unspoken rules of boxing." The agent said.

"That's right, he is not a boxer. But it doesn't matter if the full share is paid, the 4 million pounds will be mine at that time!" Tyson Fury looked pale. Apart from the 4 million pounds, Omi He also promised a lot of money, and he has already accepted the deposit, so if Tyson Fury wins this fight, his income will be worse than that of some first-class boxers.

"I suggest you not to take it lightly." The agent continued, "I received a message from here that Zhang Guan has already found a boxing coach."

"There is still more than half a month before the competition. What's the use of finding a boxing coach at this time?" Tyson Fury continued to ask: "Who is the boxing coach he is looking for?"

"Boxer Lewis!" The agent replied.

PS, on the first day of the month, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass.
