072 The Story of Liang Feng
After putting away the business card, Huang Yifei was not sure that he would contact Arum in the future. Although Arum was at the peak among boxing agents, he just didn't know why, Huang Yifei felt that he was always a little worse than Don Jin in creating a peak battle.
Not to mention the far-reaching, let’s talk about the most popular middleweight boxing champions later, the century-long battle between Mayweather and Pacquiao. Arum has been preparing for many years. Although Mayweather avoids the battle, if it were Don King, Mayweather would not be able to escape and the threat of death could be played.
Regardless of his character, Don King is indeed the first person to promote major competitions.
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening. Liang Feng came back from outside at this time. He was holding a piece of Mongolian grilled lamb chops and two bottles of beer in his hand. He walked to Huang Yifei and said, "I know that it is very hard for you to control your weight and lose fat during this period. Today I won the championship, so I will let you go. Let us have a drink."
When he smelled the aroma of grilled lamb chops, Huang Yifei's saliva was almost flowing down. Since he trained boxing, he has basically been inseparable from these delicacies. At first, he ate Liang Feng's dark food every day, but later he became a nutritional meal prepared by the nutritionist at the sports hospital at Liang Feng's suggestion. However, fundamentally speaking, there is no essential difference from Liang Feng's dark food.
Now when we saw the roasted lamb chops, Huang Yifei started to feast on his face without saying a word. This is simply a delicious food on earth for Huang Yifei!
"Coach, why did you change your temper today? This is not like your style." Huang Yifei asked while gnawing on the lamb chops.
"Since you kid talk too much, I'll go back." After saying that, he made an action to take away the lamb chops.
Huang Yifei stopped doing it and even held up the plate. Seeing Huang Yifei's action, Liang Feng just smiled, then took two cups and sat opposite Huang Yifei, poured two glasses of beer out.
"You haven't always wanted to know what I've experienced before, why I'm working as a boxing coach in the dilapidated training room in the sports hall. I said that when you win this championship, I'll tell you that it's time for me to fulfill my promise."
Hearing Liang Feng say this, Huang Yifei understood why Liang Feng did this. These questions have been buried in Huang Yifei's heart for a year, and now it's finally time to wait for Liang Feng to take the initiative to raise them.
"Coach, tell me."
After hearing this, Liang Feng picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said lightly: "I was also a professional boxer before. I have trained in the national team with Lao Zhou."
"I have guessed this." Huang Yifei replied casually. Liang Feng was a boxer and he had already felt it. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Liang Feng knew so many retired boxers.
Hearing Huang Yifei say this, Liang Feng took another sip of wine and continued, "I was a little older than you back then. At that time, I won the national 71kg championship and then prepared to play in the Asian Games."
"In that era, Chinese boxing was quite weak. I could almost say that it was the hope of Chinese boxing. It was the most likely player to strive for the intercontinental championship or even the world champion. At that time, many media interviewed me, and I was as young and frivolous as you, and I made a lot of bold statements."
"But later, I played a domestic cup game, and this cup game completely rewritten my destiny. At that time, it was already in the 1990s, and gambling things became popular, and gambling things began to rise. Moreover, due to the lagging development of the official organization, the monitoring is far less stringent than it is today."
"My father was critically ill that year, and the prize money back then was far less expensive than it is now, let alone commercial promotion. He could only get a little bit of the dead salary of the boxing team. Faced with the expensive medical expenses, I had no way to bear it, so I was found by the gambling boxing organization and played a fake game on the ring."
After Liang Feng said this, he picked up the wine glass on the table and drank another glass of wine. It can be seen that even if the matter has passed, it may be an indelible scar in Liang Feng's heart.
When Huang Yifei heard this, he didn't know what to say. No wonder he always felt that Liang Feng had a strange feeling when he got along with those old acquaintances. Just like when he first met Xie Tao, the deputy director of the boxing department, he was not as enthusiastic as an ordinary old acquaintance, but was filled with a faint embarrassment.
"I don't know how this incident happened to the media later. I was once a popular star in the media and became infamous in an instant. If I were like a rat crossing the street, this kind of transformation from heaven to hell, and this kind of experience of being disgraced, came so suddenly."
After saying this, Liang Feng took his hand to the wine glass and planned to continue taking a sip. However, at this time, Huang Yifei pressed his hand on Liang Feng's hand and said to him: "Coach, the past is over. Everyone's life experience is different. You are another starting point in your life, just like me."
Liang Feng may never understand Huang Yifei's Chinese words. Compared with Huang Yifei's otaku in another world, he became a boxer in this world, which is also a starting point in his life.
Liang Feng took this sentence as Huang Yifei's comfort. He let go of his hand holding the wine glass, and then continued: "This kind of counterfeit boxing incident broke out, so I naturally had no face to stay in the boxing team. I had to leave. Because of the influence of this incident, my father didn't hold on, and finally went, and I fell from the peak of my life to the bottom."
"During that time, I was very confused. Many former teammates and colleagues came to encourage me, but my self-esteem regarded this as a kind of sympathy and a kind of charity. I was very resistant to their encouragement and guidance from me, which eventually led to my alienation from many people. That day, you saw Xie Tao, the deputy director of the boxing department, who was actually my senior brother in the boxing team back then. He was very smart and was the best one in our generation. He entered the Sports Bureau early and became an official, and finally took the position of deputy minister."
"Coach, then how did you become a boxing coach later?" Huang Yifei asked.
When he heard this, Liang Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Do you kid remember that I told you that you should have the heart of a boxing champion? In fact, in my heart, I have never given up on the heart of becoming a boxing champion!"
