Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion-Chapter 783 - 565: Heavyweight Boxing Champion (Thanks to the book friend Scholar Grade’s Rice Worm for the reward to the Alliance Master)_3
But as he moved up to heavyweight, with opponents having increased resistance to blows and a larger height difference, he could no longer rely on the advantage of heavy punches to knock out opponents.
During the matches, he needed to hit the opponent's head more often to cause injury, weaken their combat ability, and then find a way to finish the match.
Just like the last match with Deontay, he repeatedly hit the opponent's chin, causing the opponent to be injured and fall unconscious. This time facing Povetkin, the opponent's resistance to blows was even stronger, possessing a fearless and valiant spirit.
Facing such opponents, Link had to clash head-on, showing greater courage and boldness, technique, and boxing ring tactics to gradually extend his victory and then defeat the opponent.
If he harbored any fear in his heart, afraid of getting injured and being hit in the face, lacking the courage to snatch victory from the jaws of risk, even if he could win this match, he wouldn't win it cleanly.
Also, because he was not afraid of being hit, his head and face were struck several times by the opponent earlier, causing him serious injuries, and because the fight was too fierce, both sides flared up, and by the end of the match, he almost couldn't hold back his punches and nearly caused severe injuries to the opponent.
This feeling of losing control, he had not experienced it for many years.
"I declare, the victor of this WBA heavyweight championship challenge is... Link Baker!"
The referee raised Link's fist.
The song "Legends Never Die," Link's battle anthem, played energetically and echoed throughout the venue. Fireworks lit up the sky above Berlin Olympic Stadium, making the night sky dazzle brilliantly.
"Link, the Boxing King!"
Many boxing fans in the audience shouted loudly.
Link raised his fist and waved to the crowd. The Mayor of Berlin City, Klaus Wolveilet, and the President of the World Boxing Association, Gilberto Mendoza ascended to the boxing ring to congratulate Link on his victory and presented the WBA heavyweight Golden Belt to him.
Link shook hands with both of them and again raised the heavyweight Golden Belt. He also became the first boxer in the history of world boxing to successively own the WBA super middleweight, light heavyweight, and heavyweight Golden Belts.
His professional record stands at 38 fights, 38 wins, with 38 KOs.
This time the match was stopped by the referee, termed as a technical TKO victory in boxing, also falling under the category of KO.
After the match, Link held a press conference at the venue, answering questions from journalists around the world, and announced he would relinquish all the light heavyweight Golden Belts to focus all his time and energy on obtaining the remaining three heavyweight Golden Belts.
After defeating Deontay and Povetkin, there were still many strong contenders in the heavyweight category, including two whom he could not avoid.
Namely, the current WBC heavyweight champion, Vitali Klitschko, also known as Big Klitschko.
Since becoming WBC heavyweight champion in 2004, he has successfully defended the title eight times, with formidable fighting power, and he knows five languages, holds a PhD in sports science, with an IQ of 160, nicknamed 'Iron Fist Doctor'.
And his brother, Vladimir Klitschko, the current WBO-IBF World Boxing Champion.
He has held the WBO heavyweight title since 2002, and subsequently obtained WBA- IBF world champion titles. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Since he is five years younger than Big Klitschko, many believe he is currently stronger than Big Klitschko.
The two brothers have defeated many heavyweight champions, like Chris Byrd, Samuel Pitt, Tony Thompson, Hasim Rahman David Haye, Chagaev, Shannon Briggs, and others.
Both have also been defeated.
Big Klitschko was beaten by Chris Byrd and Lennox Lewis.
Little Klitschko has not been beaten by top-tier boxers, but he has been KO'd three times by second or third-rate boxers, including Sanders, Brewster, Purity.
But to this day, no one has been able to defeat both brothers.
They often train and study opponents together. Whenever Little Klitschko is defeated, he consults with Big Klitschko on the opponent, and Big Klitschko takes revenge in the next match; when Big Klitschko loses, he consults with Little Klitschko, who then seeks revenge.
They are a very formidable pair of brothers, even more troublesome than Povetkin.
Link needs to continue to work hard if he wants to defeat them.
