Sino-Japanese confrontation, is the most concerned competition in China's fighting industry, Japan as the birthplace of free fighting, the level of fighting has been in the forefront of the world, although China's fighting started late, but after more than ten years of rapid development, has cultivated a large number of world-class masters, initially have the strength to compete with the world's top masters, especially at the level of featherweight, a large number of famous players have emerged in China, such as Qiu Jianliang, Tie Yinghua, Wei Rui, Yang Zhuo, Wei Ninghui, Zhang Chenglong and so on.
At the level of featherweight, the author believes that Qiu Jianliang and Zhang Chenglong are the two most representative players. Zhang Chenglong and Qiu Jianliang have different growth experiences, Zhang Chenglong first practiced Muay Thai in Thailand, during his time in Thailand, he participated in many Muay Thai competitions, and later began to participate in the Emei Legend competition in China, in the 2017 Emei Legend 65KG World King Competition, Zhang Chenglong was even more passed all the way, reached the top four, eliminated the top Muay Thai master Xinmani in the semi-finals, but unfortunately lost the final to Mangxing, did not win the championship.
In addition to participating in the Emei Legend competition, Zhang Chenglong competed in foreign competitions, winning the featherweight four-man championship at GLORY, defeating the martial arts world champion Adrian Maxim in the glory competition, and then KOing the martial arts world champion Nafi Bilarossky in the glory competition. After the expiration of his contract with GLORY, Zhang Chenglong was signed by the ONE Championship and has played many games so far, it can be said that in Zhang Chenglong's career, the number of away games is more than the home game, and mainly competes in foreign competitions, which is the Chinese player who participates in the most foreign events.
Qiu Jianliang is a player who grew up in domestic competitions, Qiu Jianliang has competed in two domestic competitions of wulinfeng and warrior glory, and has won two world championships, in Qiu Jianliang's career, he has defeated many world famous players, and is a representative figure of China's featherweight, and in 2021, Qiu Jianliang was signed by the ONE Championship.
In the ONE Championship, Zhang Chenglong and Qiu Jianliang encountered the same opponent, Akimoto Haogui from Japan, who was born in a martial arts family and began practicing karate at the age of 8, and then practiced Muay Thai and kick boxing. He has won the WFKO Karate World Championship, the WBC Muay Thai Japanese Featherweight Champion, the MA Kickboxing Japanese Featherweight Champion, the 2009 All Japan Welterweight Tour Championship and the 2010 K-1 Koshien Championship.
When he first participated in the ONE Championship, Akimoto Haogui was fighting in the flyweight level, that is, the 61.5KG level, and later participated in the featherweight competition, which was an upgrade battle. Although it is a weightlift, but Akimoto Haogui in the featherweight level has left a very deep impression on Chinese boxing fans, and Zhang Chenglong twice clashed, the first competition controversy won, soon in the second battle, Akimoto Haogui progress is very obvious, once again defeated Zhang Chenglong.
After two victories over Zhang Chenglong, Qiuyuan Haogui became Qiu Jianliang's debut opponent in the ONE Championship, the two technical flow of the master duel, this game Qiuyuan Haogui once again left a deep impression on the majority of boxing fans, perhaps for a long time did not play the game, in the game with Qiuyuan Haogui, Qiu Jianliang did not behave very well, the previous Shenlong swing tail, combination fist and other killer skills were not used, but Qiuyuan Haogui, constantly taking an oppressive attack, sweeping legs is uninterrupted, in contrast, Qiu Jianliang in the active offensive, Both the effective attack and the number of heavy hits were at a disadvantage, and in the end Akimoto won the game.
Two victories over Zhang Chenglong and the defeat of Qiu Jianliang, the Japanese player who was originally unknown in China, suddenly became a household name in the fighting world, and it is difficult to imagine that Akimoto Haogui was still upgraded from the flyweight to fight. Is Akimoto Haogui really invincible? The author believes that against Akimoto Haogui, a master of the karate genre, it is not easy to win, if you do not have rich combat experience with Japanese players, it is very difficult to defeat Akimoto Haogui, in the author's opinion, if you want to end Akimoto Haogui's undefeated against China, the X-Men Shere is the best choice.
As a veteran of the boxing ring, Xie Lei has gnawed a lot of hard bones in his career, but the most enjoyable thing about Xie Lei's career is his experience with Japanese players, in his career, he has played with Japanese players eight times, defeating Keita Yamaguchi, Shota Shirai, Akio Kashima, Mitsushi Yoshimoto, Takehiko Saito, Uma, Kubo Jews and Yamato Yuya, so far, the Chinese players who have defeated the most Japanese masters.
Shelley is a technical flow master, comprehensive technology, strong ability to resist blows, physical perversion, no matter what kind of opponents are encountered, Shelley can fight hard with the opponent, so far, Shelley has never been KO, the opponents encountered are not lacking in Pepanon, Ilias Bled, Jiang Tongchai, Gula and other world famous players, in Shelley's career has also defeated Durban Joan, Yi Xiu, Dennis Worthch and other masters. Xie Lei's playing style is very restrained by the Japanese assassin-type players, if Xie Lei and Akimoto Haogui play a game, I believe it will be a very exciting game.
Xie Lei vs Akimoto Haogui, the Sino-Japanese war, if there is a showdown, who are you optimistic about?
