The internationally renowned sports IP-ONE Championships will be broadcast live on Saturday, March 26 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, where the 10th anniversary of "ONE:X" will be broadcast live, and featherweight mixed martial artist Tang Kai, as the only Chinese player to land in this fighting feast, has also received widespread attention. On the morning of March 18, the ONE Championship held an online media conference for Tang Kai and Kim Jae Woong, and the two players also confronted each other and gave their own answers to many questions.
First of all, in response to Jin's evaluation of Tang Kai's "too dependent on boxing and not rich enough technology", Tang Kai responded, saying: "I am from wrestling, so it is not that I can't wrestle and fight on the ground, but I don't want to." Because I think boxing looks better, I prefer the feeling of KO opponents, wrestling is too ugly for the audience. ”
In this regard, Jin Zhixiong said: "I agree that we have a stand-up confrontation, and I will also fight with you, but you must not say that you are a wrestler, you just don't want to fall." When we are playing, if you feel that you are not able to stand up, you are welcome to fall, I also have very good wrestling and wrestling skills, but every time before I can show it, my opponent falls. ”
Prior to this, Tang Kai had KO Yoon Chang Min and Sung Jong Lee, two South Korean players, and a reporter asked Kim How to evaluate the level of these two Korean players. In response, Jin Saidxiong said: "I don't want to say what the level of the other two players is, but Tang Kai, you don't know that they and I are not at all a grade? ”
However, Tang Kai's response was also very simple and direct: "I don't think you are much better than them." ”
As the two of them came and went, the verbal confrontation became more and more intense, and Kim Also proposed: "On the 26th game, as soon as the bell rings, we will stand in the middle of the cage and fight, no one should retreat, do you have the courage to do this with me?" Tang Kai responded directly to this and said, "Isn't this nonsense? If you enter the cage, you will definitely be beaten to death! ”
In addition, Tang Kai also said more than once that he was eager to start a war with Jin Tailor xiong immediately, because he felt that Jin Tailor Xiong had always looked down on him, he said: "I don't want him to believe, I want him to obey!" ”
Although they are tit-for-tat, Tang Kai and Jin Juxiong are clear that they are facing a powerful opponent. The two sides also objectively analyzed each other's strengths, and Jin Jiexiong believed that Tang Kai felt very good on the field, could feel the subtle changes well, and quickly captured the opportunity. But Kim also believes that this advantage may also become a weakness for Tang Kai, such as Martin Nguyen, who was KO by himself in the last game, his advantage is very calm, but it is precisely because he is too calm and leads to defeat.
Tang Kai, on the other hand, admired Jin's fighting style very much, commenting: "Jin's boxing skills are very good, very fast, like to fight, and never back down. ”
The two-man match has been put on the agenda many times in the past and has been cancelled due to various factors of force majeure. Now that the competition has finally been finalized, both sides are holding a fire, and this battle for the right to challenge the championship will also be an important node in their careers. This will surely be a bloody battle of "no KO" and one of the most anticipated duels in "ONE:X".
