2021 is about to pass, for Chinese boxing fighters, the past year is frustrated, whether it is in the boxing arena, the Olympic arena and the professional boxing world, have left regrets, Tokyo Olympics gold rush failure, only in the women's field won two silver medals, Xu Can's defense battle tragically lost the world championship gold belt. In the fighting arena, the fighting queen Zhang Weili was also tragically KO in the defending battle, losing the golden belt, and then the second revenge battle once again lost to the same opponent. At the end of the year, there was a farce that attracted international attention, and the so-called net red boxer who jumped the beam clown hugged and fell the former world boxer of Japan.
As the 2021 sports year, the Tokyo Olympics became the focus of the world's attention, and the Chinese boxing team also targeted the gold medal, but in the end, the 6-man team in Tokyo won the silver medals in the women's 69 kg and women's 75 kg category respectively with the women's Gu Hong and Li Qian. Regardless of whether there is controversy in the course of the game, but the result cannot be changed, the ambitious Chinese boxing team is destined to end the Olympic journey without gold medals once again. In addition, due to the impact of the epidemic, the national team directly gave up all international events except the Olympic Games, which has to be said to be a big regret.
In the professional boxing arena, Xu Can was previously the only world boxing champion gold belt title holder in the country, but in the defending battle to London in the United Kingdom in early August, in the duel with British boxer Leigh Wood, in the fierce battle to the 12th round of the final round, he was defeated by TKO and lost the WBA featherweight world boxing championship gold belt title. This defeat also means that China's professional boxing has once again lost the title of the world boxing champion's golden belt, from Xiong Chaozhong to Zou Shiming to Xu Can, except for the three, there is no one else, which can only be said to be a pity.
In the field of mixed martial arts, the Chinese legion played in the UFC in the camp, especially led by a leader such as Zhang Weili, which attracted more attention from the highlights of the country. But unfortunately, in the first half of the reign, Zhang Weili faced the American star Rose, and finally suffered a KO defeat in the first leg, losing the women's grassweight world championship gold belt. After that, the two agreed to a second battle, and it was a world championship battle, and although Zhang Weili made progress, she still failed to break Rose's rule and decided to lose.
In addition, on the UFC field, the men's leader Lee Jingliang was hit and surrendered by Chimayev in a match in early November, without a single punch. Looking at the record of the Chinese legion in the UFC throughout the year, 20 games, only 5 games were won, 14 games were lost, and 1 was drawn, which can be described as quite tragic.
At the end of the year, the fight circle made another scandal brush a sense of existence, the so-called net red boxer Xuanwu, invited Japan's former world boxing champion Kimura Sho, who was known to Chinese fans for having been the world champion of the world boxing champion Zou Shiming for two Olympic champions in China, and won the title of world boxing king. The two agreed to play an exhibition match with boxing rules, but ended up throwing Kimura Sho in the match because Xuanwu hugged Kimura Sho, who angrily withdrew. The incident quickly exploded on social media and was widely reported in the media, and the only dignity of China's fight was squandered. This is undoubtedly worse for The Chinese fight, which is already in a difficult situation.
