Chapter 639: .Boxing Video (5/5)


July 20th, Rhode Island, USA.
This island is the largest island in Rhodes, and has always been regarded as a wealthy American resort, gathering the mansions of the most famous people in American history.
Mandoza-Lewis was riding in Cadillac President One. The spacious space in the back seat was not enough to soothe his anxiety. He looked at a luxury villa outside and couldn't help shaking his head.
The outer villa area is called Yunshi Villa, which used to be the summer vacation villa of the American railway tycoon Vanderborg family.
For a while, the Vanderbilt family had a wealth of wealth that, for a time, even exceeded the wealth of the entire United States. Therefore, the natural construction of the Marble Villa is extremely luxurious. All the materials inside and outside use Greek imported marble. After its completion, it is known as "the most luxurious building in American history" and was one of the most striking buildings in the United States.
The car was moving smoothly and quickly, and suddenly the speed slowed down.
Mandoza frowned, and asked in a smoother voice than the previous car, "Ali, what's the matter?"
The black driver explained, "Sir, it seems that the crew is filming here and the road is blocked. Please let me get off and ask what is going on."
A few minutes later, the driver came back and said, "Sorry Mr. Chairman, we may have to take a detour. There is a movie set here called" The Great Gatsby. "
Mandoza shook his head and said, "Let's take a detour. Fortunately, I don't have any work arrangements this morning, otherwise my work will be delayed, and I won't let go of these sisses in Angel City."
The City of Angels is another name for Los Angeles, where Hollywood is located.
He said this is not a bluff, and he is also qualified to call Hollywood stars a sissy. Even the toughest tough guy among the actors is not as good as the casual boxer he manages.
Mandoza-Lewis, president of the World Boxing Association, has been the old man for fifty years since the department was founded in 1967.
The predecessor of this association is the National Boxing Association, which is mainly an American institution that basically controls boxing competitions throughout the United States. Ali, Fraser, Foreman, and other well-deserved boxers all come from this association, and the gold belts they got are all engraved with the word WBA of the World Boxing Association.
But those good days are gone forever. Since partly went out to set up the World Boxing Council in 1963, partly to set up the International Boxing Federation in 1984, and partly to set up the World Boxing Organization in 1988. Strength is not as good as before.
And this is not the most terrible. The most terrible thing is that the association has not had a pillar for supporting the facade for a long time. With the final super boxer Tyson withdrew from the arena for nearly two decades, there has never been a superstar in the world ’s arena .
Thinking of this, Mandoza squeezed his forehead with a headache, at this time he realized that his skin was so slack and his age was already so old.
Is this the world of boxing? The old chairman looked at Yunshi Shanzhuang, which was fading away. Is boxing just like Yunshi Shanzhuang? Can only be abandoned by history?
He was unwilling to do so, thinking about ten years ago, how popular was boxing and boxers?
In the 90's, boxing was the dominant player in the high-income sports star list. Evand Holyfield and Mike Tyson were the first runner-up in the 1991 athlete income list. Other boxing champions Forman and Razor Radok Separate fourth and seventh. A few years ago, in 1990, the top three on this list were all boxers, namely Tyson, "Destroyer" Douglas, and "Honey" Ray Leonard.
But now, judging by Forbes ’s athlete income last year, boxing has only entered four of the top 100 highest paid athletes in the world. This is thanks to Mayweather and Pacquiao ’s battle of the century. Won the list of champions and runners-up.
In addition, the boxer's income has been broken, Vladimir Klitschko, the third highest income in the industry, is only 24th in the overall list, while Miguel Cotto, the fourth highest in the industry, has fallen behind. Shabby 75th place!
These things really can't be thought. As long as the old chairman wants to die, what kind of world is it? Why is there no boxing genius born?
No, there used to be a boxing genius. The gentleman's face appeared in the mind of the old chairman. What's the name of the boy? v-Oakley, yes, that's the name. He also went to watch his game in person, and praised him at that time.
Unfortunately, the genius was destroyed by injuries, and the boxer whose left lung was abolished is like a phoenix plucked out of hair, not even a second-class boxer.
His thoughts flickered, and Mandoza did not have time to think about these irrelevant matters. The association needed reforms, including re-election of presidents and changes to boxing regulations and laws. These are major issues and require him to worry about.
The car drove into the office building of the World Boxing Association. The three letters wba were inlaid on the roof, and still domineering.
The old man walked to the office, and a middle-aged woman came over holding a box: "Mr. Lewis, some people sent some videotapes and newspaper clippings from New Zealand. They were about a game video of a boxer named v- Oakley and the like. You see? "
Mandoza waved and said, "New Zealand? The express delivery may be wrong. Their star should not come to wba, but to nfl."
nfl is the abbreviation of American Football League. Now the world's athletes are on the income list. The number of athletes in this league dominates the list. Rugby is also the most popular sport in New Zealand.
The middle-aged woman said, "Okay, but unfortunately, those who posted these videos should be very attentive. They used video tapes instead of the popular CD-ROMs or USB flash drives, and did not send emails ..."
"Wait, who do you say these videotapes are? V-Oakley?"
"Yes."
"Then give it to me. I'll go back and see. I like to watch the video, don't I?" The old man finally returned to God. The name reported by the assistant just came to mind in the morning. Anyway, there was nothing to do in the morning. Why not watch these videos?
Two minutes later, everyone passing by the door of the chairman's office heard the classic roar of the old man:
"Fack! It's a good punch to step on the horse! Damn, is this step on skates? Hou Leixuete! This guy is a killer!"
Several employees casually discussed as they passed: "Hey, is the chairman watching Tyson's boxing again? I think it should be Ali's, haven't you heard him keep saying the pace? It may also be Holly, Hell killer is not a name for everyone ... "
They didn't finish talking, the office door was pushed open, and the old chairman flushed and gasped: "Quick! Quick! Quick! Call me all the directors above to the conference room and let them hurry over!"
