Chapter 365 Two Defending Matches Confirmed and New Game Revenue
"Do not agree?" Wang Hao frowned.
Wang Hao is not afraid of any opponent. Even if the opponent is a fighter of the level like De La Hoya or Mosley, Wang Hao will not avoid the fight. For another fight against Hernandez, against Wang Hao. There is nothing wrong with it, but it will soon be the Chinese New Year. After training and playing in Europe and America for a year, Wang Hao still wants to return to his hometown and have a comfortable holiday.
But now Hernández himself and the team are holding the WBA management requirements, forcing Wang Hao to fight against Hernández within two months. If he does not fight, he will ask the WBA to deprive Wang Hao of his title. And more than a month later, it will be the Chinese New Year. If he wants to play against Hernandez, Wang Hao will definitely not be able to return to China for the Spring Festival.
"Really an annoying guy!" Wang Hao couldn't help but cursed. Wang Hao didn't have a bad impression of Hernández, the boxer before, but it is completely different now.
"Obviously we just finished the WBO title game, so we won't let us get enough rest!" Paul was also angrily at this time, "Hernandez and his team are very sinister, this is a villain!"
Generally speaking, a boxer plays about three matches a year, that is, about one match in four months.
Because every boxing match, including training and the competition itself, will bring a lot of consumption to the fighters, especially the high-level and high-intensity matches like the title fight or the defending match, because the fighters are very strong. After a game, the physical consumption and damage to the fighters are very great. Generally, it takes at least three months of rest time before the next game can be played.
And Wang Hao just finished the WBO title fight with Camacho. Hernandez and his team must ask Wang Hao to play the WBA defending match within two months. Obviously, they don't want Wang Hao to get enough rest. This way Hernández can take advantage of the game before the start of the game.
Sanchez also frowned and shook his head. He also felt that Hernández's approach was too unorthodox. As a challenger, he could reach a compromise with the defender and postpone the game a bit, but Hernández and his team would be a little bit behind. He didn't give in, obviously thinking that Wang Hao had just finished the WBO title match, and he hadn't had time to recover, so he planned to settle Wang Hao.
At this time, William was also standing opposite Wang Hao, Paul and others, observing the expressions of several people.
Wang Hao had already told William before the game with Camacho that he would return to China for the Spring Festival, and William naturally agreed.
Professional boxers usually take a vacation and rest for a while after a major match. Wang Hao's rest time is already very small. After successfully challenging Chavez's WBA title, Wang Hao only took a one-week rest. Of the time, he devoted himself to training again.
Therefore, William also intends to let Wang Hao have a good Spring Festival. After all, the Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival for the Chinese. William gave Wang Hao a month's rest.
However, I did not expect that the situation is better than others, and the WBA's title defense will be fought within two months.
William has tried his best to negotiate with Hernández's team, and is even willing to pay Hernández's seven-figure fee, which is far beyond the appearance fee that Hernandez can get in the game. But Hernández and his team are reluctant, which makes William very angry and headache.
Because the defending boxing champion and the challenger encounter some special circumstances, it is also common to negotiate and adjust the statutory match time. Generally, everyone can be considerate of each other, as long as the reason is reasonable and there is appropriate compensation. It is just Hull Nandez is too obsessed to get in.
Finally, after there was no other way, William could only tell Wang Hao, Paul, Sanchez and others the news.
WBA's title defense is definitely going to be played, and Wang Hao will not give up the WBA gold belt just obtained just because of the Spring Festival. Naturally, William and Paul and others did not give up the idea of a gold belt.
William said: "In two months, I arranged the game at the end, stuck in the two-month deadline!"
It's only two months before the first WBA title defense game. William's arrangement is undoubtedly to maximize Wang Hao's pre-match rest and preparation time, and William has checked it, and the Chinese New Year has also passed at that time. , It's just that Wang Hao's vacation will be more hasty, and he may come back to prepare for the game just after the Spring Festival.
However, this is also the best plan William can come up with. Paul and Sanchez nodded as William said. Without giving up the title of boxing champion, the only arrangement is the best!
"No!" Wang Hao shook his head.
This is obviously the best arrangement. When Wang Hao said "No", William, Paul and Sanchez all looked at Wang Hao nervously.
"I will call Hernandez in a month!" Wang Hao said, "and then go back to China for the Spring Festival!"
Play Hernandez in a month!
Hearing Wang Hao's decision, William, Paul and Sanchez were stunned. Hernández was the former World Amateur Boxing Olympic and World Championships double champion, the longest dominance of the 64 kg class, and now he has come to the professional world. In the field of boxing, there is also the strength of a general world boxing champion. Wang Hao has just finished his match with Camacho and actually plans to face Hernandez in a month.
Even though William, Paul, and Sanchez all believed in Wang Hao's strength, they were stunned by Wang Hao's decision.
Hernandez is by no means an easy opponent to deal with. The preparation time of one month is too short, and Wang Hao has just finished a very expensive title match.
"Want to think about it again?" Paul said.
Sánchez also said: “It takes a month to prepare for a match with a boxer of Hernández's level. The time is a bit short!”
"It's okay!"Wang Hao is very determined,"Let's arrange it like this, and fight Hernandez in a month!"
William read resolutely from Wang Hao's eyes and words. He did not dissuade Wang Hao any more, but nodded and said, "No problem! I will arrange this game right away!"
Paul and Sanchez glanced at each other. They both felt that Wang Hao's playing Hernandez in a month's time was too dangerous, but since the decision was made, they had no choice but to help Wang Hao to prepare for the game as much as possible.
"The WBO defending match, I have arranged it in four months!" William continued.
WBO's top challenger is U.S. boxer Silku, currently ranked sixth in the WBO super lightweight class. According to WBO regulations, as the defending champion, Wang Hao can choose to accept Silku's at any time within five months. challenge.
William arranged the time of the defending match four months later. By then, more than three months had passed since Wang Hao played the WBA champion in Hernandez. The Spring Festival had already passed, and Wang Hao had at least two of them. Within months to prepare for the game, this arrangement naturally has no problems for Wang Hao and the coaching team.
"Yes!" Wang Hao replied, "Let's arrange it like this!"
"No problem!" Paul and Sanchez also replied.
After talking about the two title defense games, William chatted with Wang Hao separately. This time the chat was about Wang Hao's income from the previous game against Camacho, and the appearance fees of the next two championship games. matter.
"In this game with Camacho, all of your income exceeded US$10 million!" William said and handed Wang Hao a statement." The television broadcast of the ultrlightweight Dream Night game was very profitable. !"
Wang Hao looked at the settlement statement in his hand. The game income includes several pieces, including appearance fee income, ticket income share, and TV broadcast cost share.
The appearance fee has been determined before the game. The appearance fee of US$2 million is the basic income that Wang Hao can receive from droughts and floods. This is also Wang Hao's highest appearance fee so far. This appearance fee is also significantly higher than that of the average boxing champion. fee.
Ticket revenue is divided into nearly one million, including on-site advertising revenue.
This time, the share of TV broadcasting expenses accounted for the bulk, and the entire income exceeded 7 million U.S. dollars, which far exceeded the TV broadcasting income of Wang Hao's previous games, and was even higher than that of the TV games in Mexico City and Chavez. Broadcasting revenue has more than doubled.
This is because Wang Hao was already the world champion in the match between Super Lightweight Dream Night and Camacho. He was the protagonist in the game, and the super lightweight Dream Night was involved because of the super light weight. With three heavyweight gold belts, four boxing champions, old and new, all appeared on the stage, so there are a lot of TV stations all over the world broadcasting this game, which makes Wang Hao's TV broadcasting revenue far exceed the previous game.
Relying on the huge TV broadcast income, Wang Hao's total income in this game reached 10.90 million U.S. dollars.
This is the first time that Wang Hao has earned more than ten million dollars in a single game.
William continued: "I will try my best to arrange for the next two title matches and try to put it together with other levels of boxing champions, and try to promote them, but the time is tight, and the opponent's market appeal is limited, and the final total income may be. There is not necessarily a high income for the super lightweight Dream Night. But your appearance fee for these two games will be three million dollars, and it will only increase and not decrease!"
Wang Hao nodded. After all, like Super Lightweight Dream Night, there are very few tournaments that gather almost all the top boxing champions and almost all boxing champion titles in a single level, not even once a year, so it is unlikely. The income of each defending game will be higher than the income of the super lightweight Dream Night.
Wang Hao is quite clear on this point. However, the appearance fee of 3 million US dollars is 50% higher than the previous highest appearance fee. This is also in line with Wang Hao's current two super lightweight boxing organizations. Wang Hao is still satisfied with Wang's identity.
"If Costa Zu can play well in the next few months of defending the title and continue to maintain the super lightweight gold belts of WBC and IBF, then next year's super lightweight united battle between the two of you is likely to be staged!" William continued, "I am already coordinating with Costa Zu's agent and the four major boxing organizations in advance. Your match with Costa Zu is at least one of the most important boxing matches next year, and it is very likely. It is the most important match! This match will receive a lot of attention, and it must be a PPV fee-level boxing match. By then, your income will have a big breakthrough!"
Wang Hao nodded. The income of a boxer in the boxing world is determined by his own appeal and the appeal of his opponent. It is generally difficult for a well-known boxer to beat a lesser-known challenger. If it is a star boxing champion, it can often exceed one million dollars. If both fighters in a boxing match are star boxing champions, then the income will at least double again.
Wang Hao is now a star boxer, and his appearance fee has stabilized at more than two million US dollars. Costa Zu is also a star boxer now. The match between Wang Hao and Costa Zu can give two fighters. And the two teams have brought very generous income.
In boxing matches, most boxers' matches are broadcast live on TV for free. Although the organizer and boxers of the event will charge a TV broadcast fee, the audience does not need to spend money to watch these matches on TV.
The most important boxing match may become a PPV boxing match. These boxing matches, even if they are watched in front of the TV, are costly and are expensive. At least thirty to fifty dollars can be used to watch a PPV level match.
Hot-selling PPV fee-based competitions can easily earn tens of millions of dollars in income. Although these incomes are collected by TV broadcast companies, fighters and brokerage companies will participate in the sharing.
Wang Hao and Costa Zu's match will be broadcast live on PPV for a fee, which will bring Wang Hao huge additional income.
William introduced the information to Wang Hao, chatted for a while, and left.
Wang Hao naturally quickly got into the preparation for the match against Hernandez.
The time of this game is too tight, and it will start in one month. Wang Hao must fully prepare.
Fortunately, Wang Hao did not consume a lot in the game against Camacho, and he was basically not injured. This allowed Wang Hao to recover in a week of low-intensity training.
For the remaining three weeks, Wang Hao increased his intensity again and began to train as he did when preparing for Chavez and Camacho.
And Wang Hao's two head coaches, Paul and Sanchez, were also fully active. They gave up all other matters and tried their best to assist Wang Hao in preparing for the game. They carefully studied the video of Hernandez's previous matches and quickly gave Wang Hao's suggestion for the game. Analysis of strategies and technical details.
These tasks, coupled with Wang Hao's knowledge of Hernandez before, and also played official games, so Wang Hao's preparations for the game are tense, but they are considered adequate.
During preparations for the competition, Wang Hao also went to New York to participate in the boxing magazine's annual event and receive the boxing magazine's annual best cutting-edge award.
