After Claude finished the game, when Cheng Hao was about to take him away, a large group of reporters suddenly surrounded him, all wanting to interview Claude.
"Hello, what are your thoughts after defeating August?"
"You are so strong, how come you have been unknown before?"
"Do you think you can win the boxing championship belt this time?"
…
Claude was surrounded by so many people and was confused by the questions. Fortunately, this time, Cheng Hao acted decisively and pulled Claude away.
After defeating a strong man like August, any normal person would want to enjoy the media's attention, but Claude is an exception. He only cares about Coke.
Cheng Hao took him to the place where boxers rested, and only then did they get rid of those people outside.
Each boxer had their own lounge, with a long couch for rest. Cheng Hao handed the game console to Claude and said, "Wait a moment. I'll go get some Coke."
As soon as Cheng Hao left, Old George came with a doctor. Judging from Claude's previous games, he should not have suffered any serious injuries, but he still wanted to ask the doctor to help do a simple examination so that he could feel more at ease.
In the past, there was a boxer who was hit and suffered internal bleeding during a match, but he didn't feel anything. Two days later, he died without any warning.
Cheng Hao had promised to buy a large bottle of Coke for Claude, the 2.5-liter kind.
During holidays, Arabella would buy two bottles of Coke and share them with everyone. As for why they bought two bottles, it was because Arabella, Claude and Mrs. Norma could all drink a lot of Coke.
Especially Claude, he loves Coke deeply.
But Cheng Hao had not seen such large bottles of Coke in the supermarket near the competition venue. He thought that although people who came here would buy drinks, no one would buy family packs. Most of them would buy small bottles or cans.
Cheng Hao thought about it and simply bought five cans of Coke.
The total volume of the five cans of Coke is actually less than that of the large family-sized bottle, but Claude shouldn't be able to notice?
Claude really didn't realize this. He was even very happy: "Five bottles! Five bottles! Cheng, you gave me five bottles! That's great!"
"Drink slowly and eat something while you're at it." Cheng Hao also bought some fried chicken and gave it to Claude.
Claude put down his game console and started eating, his face beaming with joy. As he was eating, the door to the lounge opened and Old George led someone in. "Claude is in there. You can interview him, but we have to review the interview report before we can publish it!"
"No problem." The reporter brought in by Old George said hurriedly.
It was impossible for Claude not to accept the interview, but he couldn't accept any interview either, so Old George specially selected a few suitable media outlets to bring over, and the result was...
When those people came in, they saw Claude eating cola fried chicken.
Reporters: “…”
In the past, when they reported on boxers, they would talk about how hard they trained and how careful they were with their diet, and at least no one drank things like Coke.
But now, Claude was drinking Coke in big gulps.
Among these reporters, some wanted to interview Claude before the game, and suddenly remembered that Claude once said that Coke made him feel that he could win.
Could it be that the secret to his victory is Coke?
These people were extremely surprised, and at this time, Cheng Hao instructed Claude: "Claude, you don't have to answer their questions. Just eat your food and play games."
Claude nodded.
Then Cheng Hao and Old George began to respond to the interview.
They talked about how hard Claude trained and how he got to this point.
"He was born in a slum. His mother gave birth to nine children. He lived in poverty since childhood..."
"He's a very hard worker."
“He has a passion for boxing!”
…
While Old George and Cheng Hao were saying this, Claude was obsessed with the game console, playing it with ecstasy.
The reporter who came to interview him: "..." Is this Claude really that passionate about boxing? Why does he feel that this person's true love is probably video game consoles?
Oh, not only game consoles, but also Coke and chicken wings!
Regardless, the interview was done.
After the interview, they stayed for a while and waited for everyone outside to disperse before leaving the stadium. However, even so, they still met Claude's fans outside the stadium - these people had been waiting for Claude!
A boxer should take good care of such fans. Cheng Hao and Old George had already prepared some gifts, which they gave to these people and asked them to take photos with Claude.
Claude really likes taking photos. He was very excited when doing these things and also communicated with these people: "Thank you for liking me."
"Next time you come to visit me, you can bring me hamburgers! I love hamburgers!"
“And Coke!”
…
It is a low behavior for a boxer to ask for gifts from fans, and some fans are very disgusted. However, Claude asked for small things like Coke and hamburgers, which were not counted among them. Everyone laughed and promised Claude that they would give it to him.
Old George could only come forward and say: "He is joking with you. He is a boxer and can't eat these. You don't have to give them to him."
Those people did not doubt what Old George said, and indeed thought Claude was joking, so they all agreed with a smile, leaving Claude alone with a depressed look on his face.
But there was still someone who made Claude a little happy.
Galton gave Claude a bag of food and said, "Hey! Claude, I didn't expect you to be so good. Keep it up!"
"Thank you!" Claude hugged the bag tightly and said to Galton, "You are such a good person."
Galton: "..." Cheng Hao and Claude are simply amazing. Some boxers would hint at wealthy fans giving them luxury goods, but these two? He just gave them some food and they were satisfied!
"Galton, I didn't expect you to come too... When did you come?" Cheng Hao asked.
"I came here yesterday," said Galton.
"So, how's Tony doing lately?" Cheng Hao asked immediately. He and Lin Yuxun had always been in touch by phone, but it always felt like it wasn't enough... When would computers and mobile phones become commonplace? He wanted to video chat...
"He's doing well, but he misses you very much!" Galton said.
Galton and Cheng Hao talked for a few words, and everyone had taken pictures. Cheng Hao and Old George finally took Claude away.
After they left, Galton, who knew Claude and Cheng Hao, enjoyed the admiring gazes of the fans.
Galton was very proud and showed off for a while. After showing off, he prepared to drive away.
Just at this moment, he was stopped by someone.
The person who called him was a black man.
Galton had lived in Africa since he was a child and was very good at identifying black people. He recognized at a glance that this was the person who had cheered for Claude with him at the beginning of the previous game, but then ran away without knowing where he was.
Galton was a little unhappy: "What's wrong with you?"
Chester threw the wallet in his hand to Galton: "You'd better be careful next time and hide your wallet!"
He did not leave after the game today, but stayed for a while to see his brother. As a result, he saw that the young master, whom he failed to steal, did not hide his wallet after buying food, and it was finally stolen by someone else. He had to find a way to steal it back.
Galton didn't know this. He only just realized that he had been robbed. He looked at Chester with gratitude, but Chester was gone.
Cheng Hao and Old George took Claude back to their rented house and let Claude go out to play.
As for Cheng Hao, he still needs to continue training.
During the competition, Claude did not train much in order to maintain his physical strength, but Cheng Hao would exercise for a long time every day.
Boxing matches are a very physically demanding sport, so it is impossible for boxers to compete every day. Therefore, after Claude fights August, he can rest for three days before the next match.
During these three days, boxers from other weight classes will compete.
In order to avoid any accidents after going out, Cheng Hao and Old George had not let Claude go out for the past three days, but Claude didn't mind at all.
As long as there is a TV and a game console, he can stay at home forever!
The only thing that made him unhappy was that Old George had been doing all the cooking these days, and it was very bland...
Old George cooks light meals to prevent Claude from getting an upset stomach before the game. In addition to cooking for Claude, he also goes out to collect game information and inquire about Claude's next opponent.
During this inquiry, Old George also found out something interesting.
August questioned the fairness of the match and felt that it was problematic for the match to arrange Claude for him, as it was targeting him as a foreign boxer. He also demanded to continue participating in the competition.
At first, everyone thought his question was unreasonable.
It is customary to separate the weaker boxers from the stronger boxers initially in the finals and then draw them one on one.
Although Claude is very strong, he had no fame before. It was very normal to assign him to a boxer with weaker strength and draw August. It is unlikely that there is any shady deal.
All I can say is that the boxing organizers underestimated Claude's strength.
However, although everyone thought so, because August's identity was unusual, the organizers still conducted a symbolic investigation.
Almost everyone thought that it would be impossible for the organizer to find out the problem, but an accident happened!
The organizers finally found out that the opponent randomly assigned to August was not Claude, but someone else!
August's opponent will become Claude, someone has done something!
People who are paying attention to this matter: "..."
Even August was shocked.
Although he was skeptical at first, he later felt that his suspicions were unfounded after learning that Claude had no fame at all.
I didn't expect that I would find the problem in the end...
When Old George told Cheng Hao about this, he was quite emotional: "Cheng, I think the organizers arranged the match this way not to deal with August, the foreign boxer, but to target Claude. However, they probably didn't expect that Claude is very strong and he even beat August."
Cheng Hao had the same idea as old George.
He suspected that OC Company had done something, which was why Claude met August in the first game of the finals. However, the people in OC Company would never have thought that Claude would win.
Old George and Cheng Hao's guesses were correct.
OC Company spent a lot of effort to arrange an opponent like August for Claude.
According to their thinking, August would eliminate Claude so that Claude would not be an eyesore in front of them. As for Andy, the boxer they trained, they had decided to adjust the order of the game and let Andy enter the final round.
By then, even if Andy can't become the boxing champion, he can still be the second!
However, accidents happen, their guys take penalties, and they can no longer control the game.
Andy's agent was furious at this moment: "Damn Claude, he is so strong!"
"That's great! We can't arrange the next game!"
"We must find a way to kill that Claude!"
…
Andy listened to his agent's complaints indifferently without saying a word. After the agent finished speaking, he said, "I need to relax for a while."
The agent looked at Andy with disdain, but finally said, "I'll arrange it for you!"
Cheng Hao and his team were not aware of the affairs of the competition. They only knew that after Claude defeated August, ZYF Company paid more attention to Claude and immediately arranged some people to assist Cheng Hao and others in taking care of Claude. At the same time, special publicity personnel also got busy and began to promote Claude.
Claude finally got a nickname, still Black Bear.
Because normally he looks chubby and not fierce at all, but during competitions he can knock down his opponents in an instant, and he is very strong, just like a bear.
Three days later, when Claude woke up again to compete, there were already countless people cheering for him!
Then, Claude went on to make great progress and defeated several opponents in succession.
In his previous life, Cheng Hao had paid special attention to Black Bear Claude and knew about his glorious deeds before he became paralyzed. Now, he witnessed it all with his own eyes.
On the court, Claude was almost invincible.
He has a psychological quality that no one else can match, as well as amazing strength. He scares his opponents and makes them difficult to resist.
The competition was intermittent, with one match every few days, but he fought until the end, and in the finals, he sent several opponents to the hospital.
Finally, Claude won the last match for the boxing championship belt. His opponent this time was a veteran boxing champion who defeated August.
After August lost to Claude, he continued to participate in the competition.
He probably had a lot of anger in his heart, so he tried his best during the competition and defeated several opponents. Andy from OC company was defeated by him. His record was very good.
But it was also because he was too focused during the match and did not hold back. In addition, he was injured in the match with Claude. He was a little out of energy at the end of the fight and finally lost to the veteran boxing champion Carroll, who was actually as strong as him.
The final boxing champion will be decided between Claude and Carol, and August will undoubtedly be the third.
August was not satisfied with this. After all, if there was no Claude and he was lucky, he could definitely fight to the end and compete for the boxing championship belt, but now... he was only third.
Fortunately, Claude has shown enough strength these days, so no one will laugh at him for losing to Claude.
Finally, the much-anticipated boxing championship began.
The heavyweight match in which Claude participated was the one that boxing fans paid the most attention to.
