Chapter 363 Coward, come out and fight!
Don King was not surprised and said:
"I plan to add fuel to the fire and invite a reporter to do an interview later?"

Du Sheng is determined to fight against the top ten middleweight boxers in the world. His record of one-round KO in K1 is a bit scary. In addition, he has never participated in a UFC match, which has led to his failure to find an opponent.

But more than a month later, he actually had some problems.

The biggest reason is that they don't have any good boxers to show for exchange matches, otherwise it would have been organized anyway.

Not long ago, he finally waited for Chuck Liddell, the world's third-ranked middleweight, to jump out and mock him, so he naturally didn't want to miss it again.

Be prepared to increase firepower and add fuel to the flames.

Du Sheng thought about his recent lack of money and said:

"That's fine. You arrange it."

To be honest, with his current strength, there are few people who can be his opponent.

Even the currently famous UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva, or boxing champions De La Hoya and Mayweather, are not taken seriously.

The reason why I came to North America to play games is very clear:

That's making money from Westerners!
If you can earn tens of millions of US dollars by fighting a game, who wouldn't want such an easy job?

At nine o'clock that evening, Chester showed up with a Los Angeles Times interview team.

After the greetings, Chester found a well-lit corner, set up the microphone, put up the fill light, and spoke curiously:
"Mr. Du, please allow me to ask you something off-topic that the public would like to know."

Du Sheng looked at this shrewd man and smiled:
"You said."

"Yesterday Nicky Hilton said that you are the man she recognizes and admires, and that you are super good in that aspect. Is that true?"

Tang Jin and the others wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. Anika even looked at Du Sheng's muscular figure strangely...

Du Sheng knew that the ideas here were more open, so he ignored them and said:

"Thank her for me, but no comment."

The other person is not a beauty, so what is there to talk about?

Chester shrugged and said:
"Universal screenwriter Michael Bradt launched an attack online, saying that you stole his script "Wanted". Is this true?"

Du Sheng had anticipated this, and sentenced Bradt to death in his heart. He said calmly:
“Of course not, I paid $40 for it.

The preparations for the production have not been finalized yet, and there may be some misunderstandings, but I believe he will understand sooner or later."

If he has both fame and money by then, and the other party still doesn't understand, then he can only "try his best" to make them understand.

Chester also asked a few entertainment-related questions, such as Du Sheng's popularity in Asia and his new English song ranking 88th on the Billboard chart.

This is when the conversation turned and we got back to the point:

"Did you say in an interview when you won the K1 title that if 'Tyson's successor' De La Hoya accepted the challenge, you would give him one round?"

Although the opponent did not mention that it was K1, Du Sheng was too lazy to correct him and said casually:
"It is still valid now, and we welcome him to come and challenge us at any time."

Chester smiled. Du Sheng was not famous in boxing/UFC. He knew that De La Hoya would never accept such an invitation, so he changed his words:
"'Iceman' Chuck Liddell once insinuated that you are crazy about being famous and are simply overestimating your own capabilities.

Many North American boxing fans even accused you of having your K1 record brushed up by the Bureau of Affairs, and they do not quite agree with this kind of data.

What do you have to say about this? "

As we all know, K1 GP was founded by Japan. In the past 10 years, not only has a Japanese made it to the finals, but not even an Asian.

Who wouldn’t get angry if this happened to them?

It was previously reported that the K1 Affairs Bureau had repeatedly favored and supported Japanese people such as Masato and Matsuda Masayoshi to get to the top, but it was a pity that they were unable to help the situation.

Last year was the special tenth anniversary of K1. Seeing that Du Sheng, an Asian, made it to the quarterfinals and was eyeing the huge Eastern market, it was not impossible for the Bureau to help him win the championship.

This is also the mainstream voice of North American boxing fans, and it feels too fake.

Many people also mocked the K1 Affairs Bureau for not being able to even commit fraud. Are they trying to fool fools?

Even Chester himself, who had not seen or felt it with his own eyes, remained somewhat skeptical about the value of Du Sheng's victory.

Despite being crushed by his height, weight and punching power, he was able to knock out many heavyweight favorites in succession.

This is really against science!
Facing everyone's curious looks, Du Sheng knew that the lottery skill was something he couldn't explain, so he just said calmly:

"If anyone thinks my record is fake, he can just come down and try it himself."

At this point, he suddenly smiled:

“By the way, I also invited Chuck Liddell, the man you mentioned.

It's a pity that he is just a coward and doesn't dare to accept the challenge, but it's true that he is arrogant. "

Chester's eyes lit up slightly and asked:

"The Iceman was the UFC middleweight champion last year. Are you sure you want to fight him?"

Du Sheng stretched out two fingers and said:

"As long as he dares to accept the challenge, I guarantee he won't last more than two rounds!"

"what?"

Chester was a little surprised.

He didn't expect that this Oriental man would suddenly say such a powerful statement.

Chuck Liddell is a well-known figure in the UFC middleweight division, second only to 'The Spider'. He can't last more than two rounds in your hands?

"Don't North American boxing fans say that my record is fake? Didn't Chuck say that I overestimate my abilities? I'm putting my words here!"

Du Sheng knew Tang Jin's intention of calling the reporters, and said coldly:
“I think his record is fake. He only dares to pick on trash. He is a disgrace to the boxing world in the Lighthouse Country.

Of course, if he really wants to lose, he can give up the UFC and go into boxing, so he won’t have to worry about running into me.”

Not only were his words full of confidence, they also drew ridicule from the entire boxing world of the Lighthouse Country.

Even Chuck Liddell was trampled into a clown.

This shows that they are not afraid of offending anyone at all!
"Du, what you said will completely piss off Chuck Liddell. Have you thought it through?"

Chester has been a journalist for many years and is no fool.

No matter what Du Sheng's purpose was, no one could tolerate such ridicule and insult.

Next, they will most likely become mortal enemies. Chuck Liddell is a real world champion and one of the top three middleweights in the UFC. This is recognized by the Beacon Country.

If you offend him, you will either die or be injured if you meet him in the future.

"You should ask Chuck this. Either he gets on stage and fights, or he shuts his fucking mouth!"

Du Sheng's words were not only arrogant, but he also showed that he did not take the "Iceman" seriously at all.

Chester chuckled and thought that he would have the content for tomorrow.

"OK, I'll find a way to tell Chuck Liddell."

News is all about popularity.

Once Du Sheng's "arrogant" interview comes out, it will definitely attract a lot of attention.

Regardless of whether these two will fight, the loser will definitely become a joke.

Fame and appearance fees will plummet, and even the image will be damaged.

But none of this has anything to do with Chester.

This interview went surprisingly smoothly.

Tang Jin watched them leave and sighed silently in his heart.

To be honest, if the top eleven UFC middleweights were not all cowards, he really wouldn't want to use such a high-profile approach.

After all, Du Sheng is considered a semi-famous figure in the Lighthouse Country.

But now we can only break the conventional way.

But there are pros and cons.

Although the consequences of losing are serious, the fight is full of hype and is guaranteed to attract a large number of boxing fans to watch.

And even if the 'Iceman' is scared and refuses to accept, it will be much easier for Du Sheng to challenge other top-ranked boxers in the future.

After all, in the eyes of North American boxing fans and boxers, Du Sheng is just a boxing champion who will do anything to become famous.

Fighting these minions is easy and can increase exposure, so why not do it?
Sure enough, Chester's interview became the headline of Los Angeles newspapers the next day.

The title is scary, "Eastern boxing star Du Sheng bluntly said that 'Iceman' is a coward if he doesn't dare to fight!"

The content is even more exaggerated.

Not only did Du Sheng say what he said, but Chester also added fuel to the fire as usual, making his words sound even more explosive.

"Yesterday our reporter interviewed the first Chinese world boxing champion Du Sheng and learned that his boxing agent had contacted Anderson Silva, Chuck Liddell and others, but was rejected by all of them...

Du Sheng responded to the rumors of inflating his performance and made a statement to the top ten UFC middleweight boxers in the world, saying that if they have the guts, they can challenge him to a fight, otherwise they can shut up.

He also claimed that he could knock out a weakling like Chuck Liddell in less than two rounds.

We don’t know where Du Sheng got the courage from, but we can see that he is not afraid of challenges…”

Chester used a lot of space to report Du Sheng's bold words, and also subtly hinted at his contempt for the entire Lighthouse boxing world.

As expected, this report immediately caused a huge stir in the Lighthouse fighting circle.

Nowadays, what the spectators like most is to watch the fun.

The first oriental boxer who dared to speak wildly in the Lighthouse Country.

Or look down on others with a contemptuous attitude.

Aren’t you really afraid of being beaten to death?
Soon, all major fighting forums and websites were abuzz with discussion.

Apart from some people who questioned Du Sheng's data manipulation and began to waver, most of them were furious.

Because Du Sheng’s map cannon is so hateful!
In addition to their foul language, some fanatical boxing fans also display undisguised racism.

Faced with such a provocation, even if the 'Iceman' didn't want to fight anymore, he had to respond.

Otherwise, you will be labeled a coward.

In an interview that day, he bluntly stated that Du Sheng was just a clown who was trying to show off his achievements and who could only attract attention with all kinds of sensationalism. He had no right to fight him at all.

Although his words were quite angry and sharp, he did not reveal that he intended to engage in battle.

Because in his heart, he looked down upon Du Sheng's casualness.

Putting aside whether he is just trying to inflate his statistics, Du Sheng has never played in a UFC match, but he wants to skip the rules and challenge himself?
Does this guy really think he is a soft persimmon?
"Du, do you want to respond again?"

Du Sheng is currently in Nashville, the mecca of country music, preparing to meet with the head of Big Machine Corporation.

After receiving a phone call from Don King, I briefly learned about it and said:

"You can tell everyone that as long as the 'Iceman' dares to step onto the ring, if I can't knock him out within one round, I lose."

Tang Jin was startled, but when he thought of Du Sheng's past brutal record, he said in a deep voice:
"Okay, I'll respond now!"

If we talk about the whole of North America today, apart from Wang Yaoyang who still has confidence in Du Sheng, he is probably the only one left.

Whether Du Sheng has achieved good results or not, he is definitely the one with the most say.

But now he and Du Sheng are on the same side. In order to make Du Sheng as famous and profitable as possible, what he has to do is to conceal and deceive North American boxing fans.

As for doing this, will your conscience hurt?

Will do.

So he personally went down to the ring, not hesitating to sacrifice the last bit of his status as the godfather of boxing, and mocked and provoked the ten UFC boxers.

It’s almost like pointing at their noses and saying, you shameless cowards, continue to bring shame to the North American boxing world!
Hilton's daughter was not willing to be left out and posted a message to add fuel to the fire.

The general idea is to accuse the boxers from the Lighthouse Country of being afraid of death. Didn't they question Du Sheng's record of bragging about his fighting ability? Why doesn't he even dare to accept a challenge?

After this series of actions, Du Sheng completely ignited the anger of the North American boxing world.

Not only in Los Angeles, but anyone who pays attention to the boxing world knows that Asia has produced a rebellious boxer like Du Sheng.

Moreover, this incident completely overturned the low-key and introverted image of Oriental people, especially Chinese.
