Ben Askren actually didn't think Xiao Yong was very powerful at first.
After switching from ONE to UFC, he has become very clear that whether he is good or not depends on his opponent.
Just like him, he is a king in ONE, but when he went to UFC, his record was not good.
Xiao Yong doesn’t even have a gold belt in ONE, why would he care?
However, De La Hoya couldn't stand it, and offered him a high salary of US$80,000 a month.
You know, since his consecutive defeats in the UFC, his value has become even lower. He is worth 80,000 US dollars, and he does not have to bear the pressure of competition.
To him, it still smells pretty good.
After training with Xiao Yong, Ben Askren had a great change in his view of Xiao Yong!
First of all, Xiao Yong always maintains a very high degree of concentration during training, and judging from the combat effectiveness shown during the battle, Xiao Yong's technical completion level is already extremely high.
Ben Askren doesn’t know how Xiao Yong compares with those UFC monsters, but he knows very well that Xiao Yong’s current strength definitely has a place in ONE! He is definitely a championship-level boxer.
So after finishing training with Xiao Yong.
With Xiao Yong's consent, Ben Askren posted a video of the two's sparring session on his personal social media.
This is a video of two people practicing wrestling. In the video, Xiao Yong and him had a fierce battle for position.
In the end, it was Xiao Yong who seized the opportunity and knocked him down!
In this video, Ben Askren wrote: "Welcome the new ONE lightweight champion! Only by fighting him can you understand his power! He is definitely the top mixed martial arts fighter in the world!"
Obviously, Ben Askren is standing up for Xiao Yong!
He was optimistic that Xiao Yong would win.
As soon as Ben Askren spoke out, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.
The reason is also very simple. Even though Ben Askren did not perform well in the UFC, when he was in ONE, he was still the best among the best.
The most important thing is that Ben Askren and Aoki Shin have also played against each other.
The two had a match, and Shinya Aoki was knocked out by punches in the first round.
So what he said immediately attracted attention.
The fastest responders were netizens from island countries.
They were very dissatisfied.
"This is too shameful? Are you hiring such a master as a sparring partner?"
"That's really enough. How much money did this guy get? To be so flattering?"
"There is absolutely no way Xiao Yong can beat Shinya Aoki!"
"It's useless to say anything, see you on the field!"
It is certainly an ignorant statement to make a fool of yourself.
In fact, it is a very common method to invite players to serve as sparring partners before the game.
For example, UFC has many training camps and boxing gyms organized by players. The biggest advantage of joining one is that you can train with masters, and the training is more professional and targeted.
For example, Song Yadong in China has received a lot of care from Fibo even after joining the Alpha Boy Group.
Xiao Yong does not have such conditions now, so he can only find a way on his own.
In other words, if Shinya Aoki is willing, he can also spend money to hire a master as a sparring partner.
ONE also interviewed many people, but found that as a professional player, there are still many people who are optimistic about Xiao Yong.
Especially Xiao Yong's former opponent.
For example, Eddie Alvarez said: "It is impossible for Xiao Yong to lose. Shinya Aoki has a fatal flaw. He has been at the top level in Jiu-Jitsu for so many years, but his fighting skills have never been up to par."
Eddie and Alvarez have fought against Xiao Yong and Shinya Aoki. Of course, he lost both games, but even so, he thought Xiao Yong would win!
Likewise, there is Folayang.
There are also many disputes between Folayang and Shinya Aoki. The two have played a total of two games so far!
Folayang defeated Shinya Aoki in the first game, but was defeated by Shinya Aoki in revenge.
He also said: "Xiao Yong is a more comprehensive player, and as long as you fight against Xiao Yong, you will know Xiao Yong's dominance. Although Aoki is very creative and can sometimes make more imaginative submissions, but
I don’t think he can beat Xiao Yong! As for the glory of the island nation’s fighting, it won’t give him much blessing! And I don’t like his behavior before the game, which has gone beyond the scope of competitive sports!”
Obviously, Folayang also didn't like Shinya Aoki's behavior of visiting Qingokuo Shrine.
Competitive sports should be very pure.
But Aoki Shinya's provocative behavior has undoubtedly exceeded the bottom line.
Even within the island nation, some players expressed dissatisfaction.
Rui Ren Hirota!
This player has a deep hatred for Shinya Aoki.
The two had an early confrontation. At that time, because he was too angry before the game, Shinya Aoki deliberately broke his arm during the game! Then he gave him the middle finger.
He simply accused: "Aoki Shinya's provocative behavior before the game is very immoral in my opinion. Although I don't think he will lose the game, do you really think this kind of behavior is right?
"
Then... Mizuto Hirota was rushed!
I was outraged by the angry island nation netizens.
In their view, this kind of statement is undoubtedly a betrayal.
In other words, this island country has always been determined to destroy China from ancient times to the present!
This kind of thinking is not a problem between one person and two people, but has been common for a long time.
Therefore, they appreciated Shinya Aoki's behavior even more, and were very angry at Mizuto Hirota's speech!
"You traitor!"
"Haha, you just want to kneel down and lick China, right?"
"I'm going to kill you! Kill your whole family!"
“People like you don’t deserve to be from our island country!”
In fact, Shinya Aoki is not idle either.
During this period of time, many people helped him train, including those famous players from the island nation.
For example, Kazushi Sakuraba, known as the Gracie Killer.
This is Shinya Aoki’s idol, but he was also defeated by Shinya Aoki at the end of his career.
It can be said that a new generation replaces the old one.
This time, he also joined Shinya Aoki's training team to help him prepare for the competition.
As Folayang said, after Shinya Aoki went to pay homage to Qingokuo Shrine, the nature of the competition actually changed.
No one on either side can afford to lose!
In the island country, Xiao Yong and his team got off the plane.
ONE has already prepared the car.
Drag them to the hotel.
In ONE's strategic map, island countries with a strong fighting atmosphere are very important markets.
This time the match between the two sides is scheduled to be held at the Xijing Stadium, which can accommodate 50,000 spectators.
Tickets have already been sold out.
ONE island country headquarters.
Guan Huashan is listening to Tang Xiao’s report on the phone!
In this competition, China's single-game advertising nearly doubled compared to the previous game!
This made him extremely satisfied, and these days, the number of paying users of the official live broadcast platform has increased by millions!
This number completely exceeded Guan Huashan’s expectations!
There are too many people in China who want to watch this game live.
For ONE, all of this is money!
After hanging up the phone, Guan Huashan was in a good mood.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter!"
A man entered and quickly came to Guan Huashan.
"President, this is the opening song provided by Xiao Yong, we don't think it's appropriate."
"Opening song? Is there anything inappropriate?" Guan Huashan took over the track list.
"March of the Broadsword? What song is this?"
As a Malaysian, although he is proficient in Chinese, he really doesn't understand this song.
He turned on his computer and searched casually.
Then...the passionate and majestic singing came out!
"The big knife... chop off the heads of the Japanese!"
"puff!"
Guan Huashan, who had just taken a sip of coffee, squirted out!
"This song doesn't work! Let them change it!"
"We communicated, but Xiao Yong was not happy and said he would let this go!"
Guan Huashan frowned, this song... is indeed too much.
Although he likes to hear about the grievances between players, some countries and families hate each other, and he can do whatever they want in private.
But as the organizer of the event, he still cannot let the players do whatever they want.
In desperation, Guan Huashan personally called Xiao Yong.
After some communication, Xiao Yong finally gave up the idea. The main reason was that he did not have the initiative in this matter. After all, the initiative in the matter of singing still lies with the organizer.
Guan Huashan firmly disagreed and had no choice.
But this incident also spread within ONE and became a joke.
What Xiao Yong didn’t know was that the ONE staff member responsible for playing the entrance song was Chinese!
Xijing Stadium is packed!
Everyone wants to see Shinya Aoki win.
Liu Xing, as a staff member playing the songs backstage, was extremely excited!
Because today, he has decided!
To do something that would cost him his job!
The March of the Sword is played as Xiao Yong’s entrance song.
In fact, when he heard that Xiao Yong's submission of this song as an entrance song was rejected, he had this idea in his mind!
Is work important?
Of course it’s important!
But not everything in life.
Just like that saying, the world is so big and I want to see it.
There is never just one path in life!
Liu Xing has never done anything outrageous since he was a child, but today, he made a decision to do the most outrageous thing.
Because he is a Chinese!
Backstage, Xiao Yong was already ready.
Tonight, his match with Shinya Aoki is the last one.
Because it is a competition for the right to challenge for the championship, this competition lasts for five rounds.
Xiao Yong's face was dark, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Zheng Tiequan warned in his ear: "Remember, don't be careless. Once you give him a chance against this guy, it will be very dangerous. Take advantage of your wrestling and boxing skills and end the match as quickly as possible!"
Xiao Yong listened absently.
Finally, with the roar of the commentator, it was Xiao Yong's turn to enter the stage.
Just as the commentary finished introducing Xiao Yong, a burst of exciting music suddenly sounded.
"Cut the heads of...the devils with the big knife..."
Everyone in Xiao Yong’s team was stunned!
You know, they offered this song before, but Guan Huashan personally called and rejected it!
Why did it suddenly start playing again?
Guan Huashan was watching the game from the sidelines!
As the singing continued, Guan Huashan's eyes suddenly widened. What's going on? What's going on?
In fact, most of the island country’s audiences don’t understand...
But the Chinese viewers watching the live broadcast understand it!
"Holy shit, March of the Swords? This song is awesome!"
"I really didn't expect that this song would be Xiao Yong's entrance song... Awesome!"
"Fuck me to death, you little devil!"
"Cut him!"
Xiao Yong walked out of the player tunnel.
There were no curses, no boos, just deathly silence.
And a few cheers.
What a sharp contrast to the passionate songs!
This kind of dead silence is due to cultural differences. They didn't bother to boo Xiao Yong, nor did they bother to make any reaction to Xiao Yong's appearance.
In this dead silence, the cheers of the Chinese who came to the scene to cheer for Xiao Yong were particularly clear.
There are not many people, but there are still some!
But even so, the sparse cheering sound and the sword march made Xiao Yong full of strength!
And this incident soon spread on the island country's Internet, and the meaning of the song was also translated.
"Isn't it right? You can also play this kind of song?"
"Is ONE official too biased towards Xiao Yong? It's really too much!"
"Aoki-kun, we must win!"
Shinya Aoki doesn't know what this song means.
At this time, he also had only one thought, which was to defeat Xiao Yong, win the right to challenge for the championship, and fulfill his last dream.
The song ended and Shinya Aoki appeared.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, there was a roar of cheers from the scene!
It was completely different from the deathly silence that ignored Xiao Yong.
Standing by the cage, Xiao Yong stared at Shinya Aoki who walked out of the opposite passage, his eyes becoming more fierce.
"Fuck, why do I feel that Xiao Yong is so much more ferocious than usual today, as if he wants to eat people!"
"Indeed, those eyes are really scary!"
"My eldest brother will win!"
"Xiao Yong won, and I will be a fan for the rest of my life!"
The number of domestic spectators began to soar crazily.
It directly broke through the level of tens of millions!
You know, these are all paying users.
It can be expected that Xiao Yong's share will be even more terrifying!
At the competition site, both sides entered the octagonal cage.
Shinya Aoki is 180cm tall and has a wingspan of 183cm. His pure static talent is slightly inferior to Xiao Yong!
This guy's technical characteristics are also very clear. His boxing skills are terrible, but he has made a name for himself by relying on grappling and various flying body locks!
In the iron cage, Xiao Yong and Aoki Shinya looked at each other.
Feeling Xiao Yong's fierce eyes, Aoki Shinya also shuddered a little.
From the opponents he faced, Xiao Yong was the most vicious purely because of his appearance.
Suddenly, Xiao Yong opened his mouth, revealed a chilling smile, and made a motion of slitting his throat!
"Wait to die! You bastard!"
Xiao Yong spoke in English, and Shinya Aoki, who has been involved in international competitions all year round, naturally understood him.
But he doesn't care. Competitive competitions cannot be won with faces and harsh words.
Game start!
The two sides are approaching quickly!
However, just when Shinya Aoki reached Xiao Yong's attack distance, the guy stopped.
As Xiao Yong approached, he began to retreat!
Yes, that's what happened to this guy, and he started to retreat.
Xiao Yong punched out, and he immediately dodged back, and the distance between the two quickly widened!
Shinya Aoki also knows that his boxing skills are very poor, so his usual playing style is that when facing standing players, he simply controls the distance and moves to dodge.
Thereby looking for the opponent's flaw. For example, when facing Alvarez, he didn't throw a punch. When Alvarez raised his leg, he caught the flaw and directly locked the leg and won!
It even took less time than Xiao Yong, just over a minute.
This is also the reason why Aoki really doesn’t think Xiao Yong can beat him.
He has great movement and opportunities to find openings.
As long as the opponent is dragged into the ground by him, he has a high chance of winning.
The two of them walked around the iron cage in circles.
Seeing that this guy didn't dare to stand up.
As Xiao Yong forced him close to the edge of the cage, Xiao Yong made a dive and tried to hug Shinya Aoki.
Aoki Shinya reacted very quickly, quickly retreated with his legs, pressed his weight forward, and instantly hugged Xiao Yong's neck!
I want to use it as a standing guillotine!
Xiao Yong didn't care and suddenly exerted his strength!
Aoki Shinya only felt a huge force coming, and his whole body was forced back!
boom!
A loud bang!
He was knocked against the edge of the iron cage by Xiao Yong!
Shinya Aoki kept moving his hands and quickly pressed his back against the iron cage.
Because he knew very well that once Xiao Yong faced Xiao Yong sideways with his Dragon Binding move, he would most likely be caught in the attack!
Shinya Aoki had already grabbed Xiao Yong's neck and tried to make a guillotine!
Xiao Yong pushed him against the iron cage with his shoulders and grabbed Shinya Aoki's arms with both hands!
The two sides begin to wrestle!
Aoki Shinya's face was red, and he tried with all his strength to lift the severed head, but Xiao Yong's strength was too strong!
Aoki Shinya's hand was gradually opened by Xiao Yong!
Pull it away forcefully!
The moment he pulled his arm away, Xiao Yong quickly pulled out his neck and straightened up.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yong pressed his entire body against Shinya Aoki!
Both of them were breathing heavily, and this wrestling had consumed a lot of strength, but there was no doubt that Aoki was controlled by Xiao Yong!
"boom!"
Xiao Yong punched Shinya Aoki in the stomach!
Although the distance is very close, it still hurts!
"You are a good-for-nothing, you only run away like a mouse, how can you possibly defeat me?"
In order to prevent Aoki Shinya from escaping, Xiao Yong pressed his entire body against Aoki Zhenya, squeezing him cheek to cheek like a couple against the edge of the cage.
Xiao Yong's words were spoken in Shinya Aoki's ear. Although his voice was not loud, Shinya Aoki heard it clearly!
He kept his body as balanced as possible and kept trying to grab Xiao Yong's hand!
As for attacking opponents, this is not within Shinya Aoki’s consideration!
All he wants to do is escape!
Get out of Xiao Yong's control!
"boom!"
Xiao Yong punched Shinya Aoki again.
At this extreme distance, Xiao Yong could only hit his body.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Xiao Yong's fist hit Shinya Aoki one after another!
In this situation of extremely close range suppression, Xiao Yong's fist could not exert much power.
Of course, this just means that it is difficult to achieve the kind of liver-blasting effect.
The pain is still there!
As for wanting to end the game completely, it is impossible with this kind of intensity and position!
Shinya Aoki kept trying to break free, but it was no use!
Xiao Yong's powerful strength gave him no chance to break free!
And in this close mode, there is no possibility of locking Xiao Yong.
"What to do! What to do now! Are you going to lose?"
Fear arose in Shinya Aoki's heart.
He simply didn't know what to do.
Just when he was desperately trying to escape.
Xiao Yong suddenly moved back, and Shinya Aoki instantly felt relieved.
He subconsciously wanted to escape!
But at this moment, Xiao Yong hit Shinya Aoki in the face with an oblique elbow.
This time, Aoki Shinya didn't expect it at all!
"boom!"
The elbow hit, and a big gash was opened in Aoki Shinya's cheekbone!
Immediately blood splattered!
It can be seen that Xiao Yong's attack was terrifying.
After suffering a heavy blow to the face, Aoki Shinya also staggered a little!
"Go and make up for your punches!"
Zheng Tiequan yelled from the side of the cage.
In his opinion, Xiao Yong can definitely end the game!
At this time, the game only lasted less than two minutes.
But Xiao Yong didn't seem to hear him. He just stretched out his hand to control Shinya Aoki, not giving him a chance to escape, but there was no follow-up attack!
He is waiting for Shinya Aoki to recover!
