After coming back from a trip, Cheng Hao clearly felt that Old George paid more attention to his training.
Old George got a lot of boxing books and videotapes from somewhere and put them at home to ensure that Cheng Hao could watch them whenever he wanted. He also modified some things at home.
For example, he used a rope to hang up a small sandbag the size of his head, and asked Cheng Hao to stand next to it. Cheng Hao could only rely on moving his head to avoid the shaking sandbag.
He also bought a Willy doll.
This boxing training tool is named after a boxer named Willy. It looks like a flat doll with numbers marked on different positions of the doll. Old George's requirement for Cheng Hao is that when he reads a number, he can accurately hit the position marked with the same number on the doll.
Later, Old George even required that odd numbers throw left punches and even numbers throw right punches.
Cheng Hao had done this kind of training in his previous life, and even formed muscle memory for it, but he had never done this kind of training in this life.
He was a little uncomfortable at first, but soon he was able to throw a beautiful combination of punches.
His growth was so rapid that old George had nothing left to teach him and simply asked him to do more physical training.
Cheng Hao's training went very smoothly, but Claude's was the complete opposite.
When Cheng Hao first saw Claude kneeling down and begging Old George, and saw that he was very interested in boxing, he thought that although Claude had an IQ problem, he might like boxing very much and be a natural boxer.
But these days... he suddenly realized that this was not the case.
Claude likes boxing very much. He likes watching videotapes of boxing matches and is willing to do those tiring and complicated trainings, but he actually doesn't like fighting.
His ideal life would probably be to train with Cheng Hao every day, then eat, drink, and sleep...
In addition, he couldn't remember many things, which made his training troublesome.
Cheng Hao could teach him left hook, right hook, jab and the like slowly, but there were some things he just couldn't learn.
"When a boxer fights, he must learn to defend himself. When defending, he must keep his hands firmly in front of his face, and then keep moving his body. During this period, his arms and elbows must also keep moving, trying to block the opponent's fists..." When Cheng Hao taught Claude such a more complicated method, Claude always had trouble learning it.
Cheng Hao shared his boxing experiences with him, such as how standing still or lowering your fist too low can easily make you vulnerable to your opponent's right fist, or how during a match, both your body and hands must be constantly moving. He listened carefully, but after a while, he forgot everything.
Cheng Hao was okay, he had enough patience, but old George couldn't stand it. Facing the wooden Claude, he was always irritable.
The grumpy old George always yelled that he would never teach Claude again, but after a while, he would find Claude again and try to teach Claude something, and then within an hour, he would yell that he would never teach Claude again.
Old George even thought of sending Claude to Gibbs, but finally gave up the idea. He felt that he could not let Gibbs be tormented by Claude.
Old George was so capricious. At the beginning, Claude was very afraid of him and always worried that he would be kicked out, but as time went by, he no longer cared much about Old George's scolding.
Children are like this. If their parents scold them occasionally, they will be very scared. But if they are scolded too often, they will not take it seriously.
Now, even though old George was scolding him, Claude could still eat by himself.
But when facing Cheng Hao...
Cheng Hao was very gentle to Claude most of the time, but sometimes he would frown and criticize him, such as when he threw things around or refused to eat vegetables.
As a result, no matter how much Old George scolded Claude, as long as Cheng Hao frowned, he would obey him obediently.
For example, today, after Claude ate, he wiped the food on his pants.
Cheng Hao immediately frowned: "Claude, I told you to wash your hands when they are dirty, not wipe them on your clothes or pants!"
Claude glanced at Cheng Hao, and then this huge guy immediately ran to wash his hands. After washing, he ran out to show Cheng Hao his hands.
Old George said with some emotion: "He listens to you very much."
"I'm very popular with children." Cheng Hao said.
Old George: "..." Can Claude be considered a child? How can you, a minor, call such a big guy a child?
Old George was not gentle to Claude, but he was a good person. At least he let Claude live and eat at his home for free.
He had certain expectations for Claude, but since Claude's training had always been poor, he let it go...
Of course, Old George is more relaxed with Claude, but very strict with Cheng Hao.
He didn't know that Cheng Hao would practice extra at home, and sometimes he felt that Cheng Hao's training time was too short, so he was extra strict with Cheng Hao.
More than half a month after returning from the big city, Old George also hired a training partner for Cheng Hao.
The so-called training partners are actually boxers themselves. Some of them are too old to make money from boxing, while some have poor skills and cannot make a name for themselves in the ring, so they start thinking of other ways to make a living.
Not everyone can be a boxing agent or boxing trainer. Many of them can only be someone else's training partner.
The training partner that Old George found for Cheng Hao was a black man who was in his thirties and looked very strong. He also had an impressive resume - he had won many medals in amateur competitions and had participated in the Olympics.
It's a pity that he didn't win a medal in the Olympics.
There are regulations in the Olympics now that professional boxers are not allowed to participate, so he is ultimately just an amateur boxer and cannot make much money. Now that he is a training partner for others, he often gets beaten up.
Old George asked him to accompany Cheng Hao to practice boxing.
Being a training partner is not easy. Sometimes the boxers who hire them will even ask them to be beaten all the time... It is also possible that they will break their ribs while training with the boxers.
Because of this, the training partner named Will breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his opponent was Cheng Hao.
After all, Cheng Hao doesn't look powerful at all.
Cheng Hao was indeed very gentle when he spoke to him: "Mr. Will, I hope you will punch me and do everything you can to beat me."
Cheng Hao had previously felt that he had too little experience in taking beatings in this body, and now that he had a partner, it was a good opportunity for him to practice.
He wants to make dodging a natural habit.
Cheng Hao protected his face with both hands and began to move constantly to avoid Will's attack.
This wasn't a formal match, and Will's punches weren't heavy, but even so, Cheng Hao was left with bruises all over his body...
This is such a long-lost feeling...
Cheng Hao grimaced in pain, but decided to persevere. But Claude... During the break, Cheng Hao noticed that there was something wrong with his expression.
Claude looked at Will with extremely fierce eyes, as if he wanted to pounce on Will and tear him to pieces.
"Claude, we are in training. I told you...you have to respect Will, okay?" Cheng Hao said to Claude.
Claude hummed in dissatisfaction.
"Forget it, go out and play." Cheng Hao thought about it and simply let Claude go out to play, so that Claude wouldn't get too angry and hit Will.
When Claude heard the words "go out and play", he didn't care about anything else. He changed into his new clothes and ran out, not forgetting to put on his glasses.
The colorful new clothes and the orange sunglasses are Claude's favorites. He always dresses neatly these days and goes out like this.
There were many people looking at him at that time, and he was very excited.
"Wait, Claude." When Claude was about to go out, Arabella stopped him and said, "Here's a dollar. You can buy something you want outside."
Claude took the money and tried to run away. Seeing this, Cheng Hao shouted, "Say thank you!"
After hearing what Cheng Hao said, Claude turned around and thanked Arabella before running away.
Arabella is a very enthusiastic person who likes to chat. Cheng Hao learned a lot from her.
When she was young, she was admitted to university and had a good job. Unfortunately, the man she found was a bastard and cheated on her when she was pregnant. Arabella had a fight with the man and then lost her child... That hurt her very much, so she moved in with old George.
Old George was a very good boxer when he was young. He was very popular and had many women. Later, he fell in love with a beautiful white girl, and they got married and had a daughter.
Unfortunately, the boxers trained by Old George later accused Old George of some trumped-up crimes, and Old George was arrested. His wife took their daughter away... When Old George later found a way to get out of prison, his wife had remarried, and he opened a tavern here to live.
Every time Arabella talked about the boxer trained by Old George, she gritted her teeth and was full of anger, but she rarely mentioned Old George's wife and daughter.
Cheng Hao listened and just kept it in mind. He never said anything about it. In front of Old George, he would not say a word.
Cheng Hao was beaten almost all day that day.
Will, who used to be beaten up as a partner, felt refreshed, but he felt pain all over his body.
In the evening, Claude came back. He was dirty and no one knew what he had been playing outside...
Cheng Hao took a look and found that he was not injured and was in good spirits. He said that there were many people playing with him, so he didn't pay much attention to him and said goodbye to Old George.
Old George couldn't help but say, "You should stay at my place so you can train more, or watch videos or read the Boxing Encyclopedia in the evening."
Cheng Hao said, "I want to go back and accompany my brother." Since he has decided to live with Lin Yuxun Danny, he has to go back and should find a way to spend more time with these two people.
If he doesn't care about them at all and is only responsible for paying money, this would be widowed parenting!
Well, that word doesn't quite apply to him...
The author has something to say:
Cheng Hao: I will definitely go back to take care of the child. I can’t raise the child like a widow!
