Michael Johnson's eyes were blank, staring straight at the ground.
Losing to Xiao Yong was something he never expected.
How could a yellow man be so strong?
This completely subverted their understanding.
To put it bluntly, the reason why he was angry and why he shouted to fight for these brothers and sisters was very simple, because he never thought highly of Xiao Yong from the bottom of his heart!
Deep in his heart, he also agreed with what those two people said to Xiao Yong.
How can a mere yellow man achieve success in the UFC?
But the reality is that in Xiao Yong, he felt as terrifying as Kitty Habib.
Two different games, same result!
Same feeling.
And almost the same process!
This was hard for Michael Johnson to accept.
Buffer entered the court and came to Michael Johnson's side.
Asked: "Michael, you lost this game, what do you think of Xiao Yong's performance?"
Michael Johnson said helplessly: "I lost the game. To be honest, this makes me a little unacceptable. Now I have some doubts about whether I am suitable for this level. I may have to change to another level. As for Xiao Yong, he is very strong. You see
Now, I have no power to resist in front of him. I think his style is very similar to Khabib! Although I don’t like this kind of opponents, I have to admit that they are very difficult to deal with.”
After losing the game, even though he looked down on the yellow race in his heart, he had to admit how powerful Xiao Yong was!
Buffer smiled and said: "The match between Khabib and Conor is going to start soon. Who do you think will win the match between them?"
"It's hard to say. I have never fought against Conor. He is also the top boxer. No matter who it is, there is a chance to seize the opponent's flaws." Michael Johnson truthfully stated his feelings.
That's right, the competition between Xiaoying and Connor has already been publicized.
Conor McGregor is now the most popular man in the UFC, and he is also the most valuable person.
And Khabib has never lost in his career.
In the eyes of most people, the outcome of the match between these two men may be decided by a thin line.
After all, Conor McGregor is the top standing player, with beautiful standing striking skills and powerful punches! As long as he is given a chance, he may defeat Khabib with one punch.
The reason why Buffer asked about this game is because this game is the most important next task for Dana White and the UFC!
After the money fight with Mayweather, Conor McGregor's net worth has skyrocketed. Now his attention, no matter who he competes with, will bring super considerable profits to the UFC.
After interviewing Michael Johnson, Buffer came to Xiao Yong and asked with a smile: "Xiao! Congratulations on winning your first game in the UFC. Can you tell me how you feel?"
"It's nothing special. This is just an ordinary game. As you can see, I won easily." Xiao Yong glanced at Dana Bai outside the court and shouted: "Dana, I need a stronger opponent.
!”
The camera shows Dana Bai with a smile on his face.
He was very happy that Xiao Yong could win the game. Anyway, this is a good thing!
A very important good thing for opening up the Chinese market.
As the saying goes, in competitive sports, performance is king, and it’s useless to say anything else!
Buffer continued to ask: "So what do you think of the match between Khabib and Conor?"
"Khabib will win, Connor has no chance." Xiao Yong said solemnly.
This answer caused an uproar on the scene.
You know, this is when Conor McGregor is at his most famous.
He holds both the featherweight and lightweight gold belts in his hands! He just finished a cross-border fight with Mayweather!
Earn hundreds of millions of dollars in one game!
Unparalleled in the limelight!
No matter who it is, everyone will think that both of them have a chance to win, but Xiao Yong gave a completely different answer!
"Why?" Even Buffer couldn't help but ask: "Connor is the owner of two gold belts. Although Khabib has never been defeated, he has not yet won the UFC gold belt!"
Xiao Yong shook his head and said: "Gold belt? That's just because Khabib doesn't have the right to challenge for the championship, and it's just because Connor has not returned to the Octagon for a long time, otherwise he would have been defeated by Khabib long ago.
Although Connor's fall protection is better than that of Michael Johnson, when facing a top wrestler, it is impossible for him to make five rounds without making a mistake, and he will always be dragged to the ground by Khabib!
Once dragged into the ground, Connor's chances of losing the game are greatly increased.
As for Khabib's fighting ability, although his striking ability is not too outstanding.
But his weight gives him outstanding resistance and defense capabilities, and his combat and defense skills are also excellent.
The most important thing is that Connor's physical fitness is not as good as that of Khabib, so once the game enters three rounds, Connor has no chance of winning!"
Xiao Yong analyzed it very carefully.
In fact, in Xiao Yong's view, Conor McGregor has excellent standing skills and strong striking power, but this depends on the weight of the opponent.
Conor McGregor is dominant in the featherweight division.
But when he moved up to the lightweight class, although he was still very strong, his striking effect was definitely not as good as that of the featherweight class, because the opponents he faced were bigger, heavier, and had stronger resistance to blows.
It can be seen from the two games between Connor and the second-ranked Xiaoma that Connor actually played very hard.
In the first game, Xiao Ma won by submission, and in the second game, although Connor won by points and succeeded in revenge, his physical fitness obviously declined in the second half of the game, and the heavy punches for which he was famous did not knock out Xiao Ma.
In Xiao Yong's opinion, Xiaoying's ability to resist being hit is not necessarily weaker than Xiaoma's!
Moreover, the instant weight gained by that guy's extreme weight loss will not be lower than Xiaoma's.
In a standing style of play, Khabib is more defensive. In this case, the possibility of Conor knocking down Khabib while standing is very low.
However, once it is dragged into the ground, it will be ravaged unilaterally. Connor does not have the capital to compete with Xiaoying on the ground.
So Xiao Yong gave his judgment very simply!
Connor will lose!
Buffer smiled and asked: "Then do you have an opponent you want to challenge in the next game?"
"It's the same for everyone. I will win no matter who I fight, but it's best to have someone ranked higher than me, so that I can be more excited!"
By winning this game, Xiao Yong officially took the ninth place in the UFC lightweight category!
As for who he will play in the next game, Xiao Yong really doesn’t know.
If he could choose, he would even want to play in the championship game, but obviously, this is impossible.
Currently, there are only three opponents that Xiao Yong wants to challenge, the loud-mouthed Conor McGregor, Khabib, and the night demon Tony Ferguson.
These three people are the top three in the lightweight class!
Among them, Connor represents the top level of standing, and Khabib is the top player on the ground.
Tony Ferguson's style is more mixed, and it can even be said that he is one of Xiao Yong's favorite UFC fighters.
Among them, Conor holds two gold belts, Khabib has won all his career, and Tony Ferguson currently has twelve consecutive victories!
All three are at their peak.
As for others, Xiao Yong really didn’t take him seriously!
And it is impossible for these three people to accept his challenge!
So Xiao Yong didn't even bother to call the formation.
The interview is over and the competition is over!
It can be said that Xiao Yong completed a perfect debut.
A crushing victory.
Airborne to the ninth position in the UFC lightweight rankings!
As Xiao Yong won, his various speeches were also spread.
Immediately, the reporter, who was interested, found Conor McGregor and asked Conor for his opinion.
He was optimistic about Khabib's words, which completely angered Connor!
Connor said simply: "I have never heard of Xiao Yong who went to TM. What did he do before?"
"Having only played one game in the UFC, he hasn't proven himself yet! I don't think his evaluation has any value."
"Khabib can't be my opponent at all. As for Xiao Yong, he is just a clown trying to please others!"
"He'd better hurry back to China with the ninth ranking. After all, for him, it should be the highest ranking."
"He will definitely lose the next game. This guy Michael Johnson must have lost his mind to lose to such a rookie!"
Connor has always been like this, full of aggression.
Not to mention Xiao Yong who directly criticized him.
Even Xiao Yong’s opponent Michael Johnson couldn’t avoid being sprayed!
Not only that, Connor also has a group of fans in China.
After listening to Xiao Yong's words, he also started to attack Xiao Yong.
"I don't think Xiao Yong should say that!"
"That's right, what is Connor's status? What's his status?"
"It doesn't matter who you beat, you have to be qualified to challenge for the championship first and then talk big."
"I don't think he can win the next game!"
But in comparison, Connor's fans are still a minority in China.
Their rant immediately angered Xiao Yong's fans.
"Haha, what's wrong with people's normal predictions? But they still have to be optimistic about Connor?"
"That's right. It's not like Connor has never lost before. I think Xiao Yong's analysis is right! I'm going to buy Little Eagle to win!"
"What's wrong, if you have a low ranking, you will always be a low ranking? If you have a low ranking, you can't speak your mind?"
"Xiao Yong has only played one game. When Conor played a UFC game, he was not as good as Xiao Yong!"
For most netizens, if Xiao Yong can win, they are actually heartbroken, because with Xiao Yong entering the UFC, the reputation of the UFC has also been known to many people.
As the highest level MMA event in the world, UFC events have high gold content, and they are also the most competitive lightweight category.
Many people are worried that Xiao Yong will lose.
But facts have proven that Xiao Yong is still very strong.
While Xiao Yong was preparing for the competition, the movie Chasing the Dragon was also released simultaneously.
Riding on this popularity, the movie box office has been rising steadily.
Finally broke through the billion mark!
This makes everyone quite happy.
In fact, this is also thanks to Xiao Yong's box office appeal.
Beautiful country, De La Hoya looked at the PPV sales data, 400,000 copies!
This number exceeded his expectation.
After all, this was only Xiao Yong's first UFC match, and it shouldn't have attracted too many people's attention.
However, the topic Xiao Yong caused before the game was still very high, whether it was related to racial discrimination, James' platform, or the emergence of mysterious potions.
This has aroused the curiosity of many beautiful Chinese audiences.
Coupled with Xiao Yong's fierce face, many people want to watch Xiao Yong's game!
Under such circumstances, Xiao Yong only received 400,000 PPV sales for this match.
Xiao Yong's guaranteed appearance fee is 300,000 US dollars, he will receive a victory bonus of 50,000 US dollars, and the best of the night will be 50,000 US dollars, earning a total of 400,000 US dollars!
400,000 PPV share, US$79 per share.
All PPV proceeds will not go to the UFC, 10% will go to the signal producer of this game, and 30% will go to the satellite live broadcast agency and signal distribution agency.
The remaining 60% belongs to the UFC, and Xiao Yong gets a 5% share from the UFC.
In other words, Xiao Yong's profit from the PPV share in this match far exceeded the appearance fee, and he received 940,000 US dollars!
Including the basic appearance fee, he received 1.24 million US dollars in one game.
Not only that, but also the domestic share!
This game also attracted a lot of attention in China. The total purchase share of a single game reached 22 million points!
Eight yuan a share is 160 million RMB, half of which is retained by the platform, and Xiao Yong gets 25% of 80 million, which is 20 million.
This directly broke UFC's single-game sales record in China.
The advertising fee for single-game sponsorship is slightly less, about 10 million.
The total domestic revenue is 22.5 million RMB!
From one game, Xiao Yong earns nearly 30 million RMB.
Although it is said that taxes and sharing will be given to De La Hoya.
But this income is still very considerable!
And it once again set a record for appearance fees for Chinese boxers.
This is because Xiao Yong is in a beautiful country and his box office appeal is relatively poor, so that’s why he only has this amount of income!
400,000 copies, in fact, this sales volume is not high, it can even be said to be a bit low.
But it is still above the passing line.
But this game made many beautiful Chinese viewers remember Xiao Yong!
Especially during the game, Xiao Yong punched Michael Johnson with a fierce face, which was very consistent with their aesthetic!
The aesthetics of violence is all about brutal violence!
As the footage of Xiao Yong's game spread, many people became interested in Xiao Yong, a fierce guy from China.
Moreover, although Xiao Yong's expression was calm after the game, everyone could feel the arrogance and confidence in his words.
They just like this kind of boxer.
Instead, Xiao Yong attracted a large number of fans.
For the UFC, the income from this game is not enough to surprise Dana White.
Compared with big-name celebrities, Xiao Yong's PPV sales are actually very average, and Huaxia's income is just that compared to PPV.
"Extreme Chaos Jue"
Because relatively speaking, the Chinese market is still too small.
The unit prices of competitions vary greatly!
Beautiful Country, one PPV is $79.
In China, let alone selling it for 79 US dollars, it sells it for 79 RMB. It is estimated that the number of people buying it will not even be 1% of what it is now.
But what makes Dana Bai happy is that he saw a huge change in traffic!
The original UFE was good, but it was limited. At most, hundreds of thousands of people would watch it.
When there is less, there is no need to say too much.
But now, it has really received a lot of traffic.
And this is just Xiao Yong's first game.
From the perspective of Xiao Yong's PPV sales, as the first main event, there are no bonuses from other big-name stars, and it is actually qualified to be able to sell this kind of share.
After all, this is just the beginning.
As the game ended, Xiao Yong also returned to China.
With the publicity of James, others gradually started to get the idea of Long Mang Qi Yuan Tang.
Especially some athletes who have a strong desire to win.
For example, Xiao Yong received another purchase request from Ronaldo.
In this regard, Xiao Yong still did not refuse. He knew very well that decoction could not save the national football team.
It cost 30,000 US dollars per copy, and Cristiano Ronaldo simply ordered 100 copies.
To put it bluntly, three million US dollars, for a sports star of this level, is not just the same as ordinary people spending three hundred dollars, it is probably equivalent to the feeling that ordinary people spend three hundred dollars.
Xiao Yong can't do this yet. After all, Xiao Yong's total income from one game is only a few million US dollars!
Therefore, this income is quite good for Xiao Yong.
Two superstars earned 6 million US dollars from buying soups! Even more than playing games!
In Xiao Yong's boxing gym, he was lying in the tub. Without the space to dream, he had to take a bath like this.
Xiao Yong was soaking in Dragon Python Qi Yuan Decoction while looking at his system interface!
The system has released a new task.
"Mission: Alien Terror!"
"Please make one million people of different colors feel strong fear of the host. After completion, the reward dream training space will be permanently opened!"
When he saw this task, Xiao Yong immediately became excited.
The dream space is permanently open.
After the dream training space disappeared, Xiao Yong clearly felt that time was actually not enough.
And this time the mission reward turned out to be permanent dream space permissions!
But the question now is, how to complete the task?
How to define this standard of intense fear?
In fact, Xiao Yong's first reaction when he saw this scary crowd was to make a movie or short video.
After all, it would definitely be unrealistic to deal with such a huge number of people who are afraid of them one by one.
But intense fear, obviously, cannot be achieved by just relying on Xiao Yong's fierce appearance like in previous movies.
So what Xiao Yong wants to shoot must be something that makes people extremely frightened.
Thriller movie! Horror movie! Ghost movie!
These three types of films flashed through Xiao Yong’s mind!
But the problem arises again, Xiao Yong has no similar film contracts at all!
Now, it can be said that he has a lot of film appointments in China, but no foreign crew has invited Xiao Yong.
Xiao Yong soaked in hot water and touched his chin.
"Shoot a short video?"
But the problem still exists. Although Xiao Yong has gained a lot of fans through a game, Xiao Yong is very doubtful. If he posts a short video, will anyone really watch it?
And what kind of short video can be shot to make these people feel strong fear?
Xiao Yong's conscience is only directed at his compatriots at home.
For foreigners, it’s scary but not scary to death, right?
And aren’t they all very courageous?
While I was thinking, suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Xiao Yong, Li Shenglong and his coaching team are here and said they want to train with us for a while. What do you want to do if you go and take a look?"
