Chapter 368 The smell of gunpowder at the press conference
William arranged for Wang Hao's first defending match to be played in Germany. The stadium was at the famous Berlin Olympic Stadium in Germany, also known as WernerMarch Stadium.
WernerMarch Stadium is world-famous and is ranked among the top ten stadiums in the world.
WernerMarch Stadium was built in the early twentieth century. It hosted the famous 1936 Olympic Games and was designed by the Maher family.
This stadium can accommodate 98,000 spectators. It is a great honor for any boxer to compete in such a stadium.
When Wang Hao played the World Amateur Boxing Championships in Hamburg, he visited WernerMarch Stadium to watch Vitali Klitschko and Herbie Hyde WBO World Heavyweight Championship.
It was Vitali Klitschko's first World Championship title challenge after entering professional boxing. Herbie Hyde was the WBO World Heavyweight Champion at the time.
Vitaly Klitschko played very well in that game, knocking down Herbie Hyde to win the WBO World Heavyweight Championship.
That match was also the beginning of the Klinchenko brothers' dominance of the world's heavyweight professional boxing arena.
Wang Hao had not entered the professional boxing world at that time. To see Vitali Klitschko playing in a world-famous stadium like WernerMarch Stadium, Wang Hao was also very envious.
However, within a few years, Wang Hao can also play a professional boxing match at WernerMarch Stadium, and this time, Wang Hao is still the protagonist of the WernerMarch Stadium boxing match.
After William and Wang Hao determined the time to play against Hernandez, he immediately began to prepare intensively, because the time was too tight. One month, for any agent or boxer, prepares for a grand event. The boxing matches are all too tense.
However, William deserves to be the best agent in Europe. He completed the task brilliantly and quickly planned the game for Wang Hao.
Because Wang Hao had not acted as the number one boxer in a boxing match before, at most he only participated in the boxing competition with other boxers as the main boxer, so although Wang Hao already has considerable fame and market appeal, William is still a little worried. These fame and appeal will not necessarily be implemented on the actual tickets and match broadcasts.
So William originally wanted to put Wang Hao's match with other boxing champions together, so as to gather more spectators, but after doing a small survey, William was surprised to find that there are already quite a lot of spectators in Europe, willing Spend money to buy tickets to watch Wang Hao's game.
While this surprised William a bit, he also knew that Wang Hao's current fame could already be converted into real game income. There were quite a lot of spectators who spent money to watch Wang Hao's game.
Finally, William took Wang Hao's match as the main match, and it was the only world boxing title match that night. The venue for the match was WernerMarch Stadium, which can accommodate 98,000 people.
A stadium with a capacity of nearly 100,000 spectators is a top-level arrangement for a boxing match. Generally, only a boxing champion with a world-class reputation can dare to fight in a stadium of this size.
However, the sale of tickets for the final match was better than William expected. The match between Wang Hao and Hernández sold half of the seats in the WernerMarch Stadium, that is, nearly 50,000 tickets were sold.
This is already a very impressive result. After all, on the night of the boxing match, only Wang Hao and Hernandez had the title of world boxing champion.
In contrast, when Wang Hao played the Amateur Boxing World Championships in Hamburg before, he watched Vitali Klitschko and Herbie Hyde in the WBO World Heavyweight Championship and only sold half of the tickets for the WernerMarch Stadium. , And there was a match between Nasim Hamed and Kevin Kelly for the title of featherweight champion.
Wang Hao's market appeal is equivalent to that of a star boxer. This is naturally because there are too many auras in Wang Hao's body.
Olympic boxing champion! World Championship boxing champion! WBA super lightweight world professional champion! WBO super lightweight world professional champion! Boxing magazine's best newcomer of the year!
100% winning rate, 100% KO rate, plus the identity of an Asian boxer.
These have become the help of Wang Hao's strong market appeal.
William also defined this night's match as an "Asian Storm", meaning that Wang Hao is a boxer who has set off an Asian storm in the professional boxing world.
After learning that William had arranged the match with Hernandez in Berlin, Germany, Wang Hao also departed from the United States and returned to the Rhine Boxing Club to continue training. Paul and Sanchez naturally accompanied Wang Hao.
Wang Hao is also very satisfied with William's arrangement. After all, for Wang Hao, who signed with the Rhine Boxing Club, Berlin is also the home court.
One week before the game, William was also at the Berlin Convention and Exhibition Center, planning a pre-match press conference for the match between Wang Hao and Hernandez.
This press conference attracted more than 20 media to participate, most of which are sports media from the European continent and the UK, and some media from the Americas and Asia.
In addition to participating in the pre-match press conference, these participating media will also report and broadcast the "Asian Storm" boxing night on the spot.
The pre-match press conference site, including the media and some boxing fans who bought tickets, gathered nearly three hundred people. This is not a small scale for the pre-match press conference of a boxing match.
The reporter from the German National Television Sports Channel in Germany first asked the question.
The first question of the tall male reporter was to Wang Hao, "Mr. Wang Hao! This is your first title defending match. Hernandez was also a boxing champion at the Olympic and World Championships. What are your expectations for the game?"
Wang Hao replied: "Yes! Hernandez is not only the Olympic and World Championship boxing champion, but also my old opponent. The first time we met was in the final of the 64kg Olympic Games. I knocked down Hernandez! I want to tell everyone that there will be no difference in this game. I will knock down Hernandez so that he will never dare to meet me in the ring again! "
Because of the unpleasant events in the game schedule, Wang Hao does not have a good impression of Hernández, and naturally he will not be polite at this time.
Following the question from the German national television sports channel reporter was a British Sky Sports female reporter. Her question was addressed to the challenger Hernandez. She asked: "I want to ask, as a challenger, how do you What are your expectations for this time?"
Because he lost to Wang Hao in the Olympic finals before, that was Hernández's most tragic failure. Hernandez couldn't let go for a long time. He was depressed a lot and prepared to vent from this game. Although the press conference was not the scene of the match, it was also an opportunity to vent, so Hernandez said viciously: "My goal is to beat Wang Hao to death in the ring!"
