207 The Oath of Huang Yifei

In the original history, this battle will be a battle between Pacquiao and De La Jolla. Arum and the "Golden Boy" De La Jolla named the event "Dream Battle". This is also the most successful boxing event run by Boss Jin and Arum, and many historical records were created at that time.

At that time, the total prize money of this "dream battle" reached 100 million US dollars, breaking the highest record of 65 million US dollars set by Mike Tyson and Evand Holyfield in 1997, and far exceeded it.

From the perspective of bonuses, it is no exaggeration to call boxing the number one money-making event in the sports world. This is why Huang Yifei did not value money before, because as long as he has fame, no athlete's event bonus income can surpass the boxing superstars, even football superstars who claim to be the world's largest event can do it.

In this "dream battle", Pacquiao, who won the winning game, finally won $65 million in bonus, which was worth Yao Ming's four years of salary, and De La Jolla, who lost, also received a $35 million in bonus.

Although the "battle of honor" between Huang Yifei and Pacquiao did not reach the exaggeration of 100 million US dollars in history. However, 50 million US dollars can be regarded as a record in the entire Asian boxing world. When Huang Yifei heard this number, even though he knew the records in history, he was still shocked.

As for the reason why it is 50 million less than history, it is because the world boxing world is still dominated by white people. And paid on-demand broadcasts are basically dominated by European and American audiences. At that time, De La Joao, even when he was in the late year of the hero, his influence and attention were still stronger than Pacquiao, who was in the rising period.

Now, from the "dream battle" in history to the "battle of honor" of the Asian civil war." Many European and American viewers do not want to buy it. This is a two Asian man fighting. Without us European and American boxers, what else is there to look good? The paid on-demand rate between China and the Philippines is almost negligible.

But even so, if Huang Yifei wins, he will get nearly 25 million US dollars in prize money. If he loses, Huang Yifei will only get about 15 million US dollars in competition money, and Pacquiao will get 35 million US dollars in prize money.

There is no way. Now Huang Yifei's reputation is far less than that of Pacquiao. The price of the sponsorship income of the event is much lower than that of the advertiser. Moreover, in terms of agents, Liu Gang's operation is far worse than that of Arum, so this time the event was led by Arum, rather than the strong teaming of top boxing promotion and Jintong promotion.

Huang Yifei expected the reduction in bonuses, and he didn't care much about these things. After this baptism of the "battle of honor", his fame with Liu Gang will be explosively improved. In the future, when Liu Gang comes to run the event, he will not suffer such a loss. After all, it is not only Chinese boxing, but also Chinese boxing agents and promotion companies are also in a stage of exploration and growth.

Moreover, this bonus can also solve Huang Yifei's urgent need. The creation of this training base in the United States and Mario's coaching expenses almost cost Huang Yifei's previous savings.

When he had no money before, Huang Yifei felt that the prize money of hundreds of thousands seemed to be endless, because the coaching team was all burdened by the country. But now it was his turn to operate, and with the development in the United States, the expenses were much greater. However, everything was enough to win this boxing match, and Huang Yifei was about to officially enter the tyrant class!

Once the honor battle between Huang Yifei and Pacquiao was confirmed, Arum began to prepare for a press conference and began to hype the event. On one hand, there was a Chinese boxing genius, who had broken several world records since the beginning of professional competitions. On the other hand, there was a Philippine national treasure boxer, the number one in Asia, and a man who created many miracles.

Since the news came out, this event has attracted countless people's attention and has made many boxing fans very excited. Some people in China have begun to prepare to form a group to go to New York to cheer for Huang Yifei. This is definitely an important step on the growth path of the Chinese boxing superstars!

The location of the press conference was chosen as the Empire State Building in New York. This was not the location of the press conference designed by Arum, but the location of the press conference that Huang Yifei strongly requested to be changed. For this reason, Huang Yifei paid up to $500,000 and included a full floor of the Empire State Building as the address of his press conference.

Arum expressed his discomfort about Huang Yifei's behavior, but he thought that Huang Yifei had released the money and could also expand the influence of this game. Although Arum did not understand, he was very happy to do so.

In fact, it is not just Arum, but even Liang Boyu, Wang Tao and others who joined the team later did not understand. In their opinion, it was just a press conference. You should know that renting a top-sized press conference venue at the National Convention Center in China is only 400,000 yuan. The 500,000 US dollars has increased several times. Is it necessary?

Wang Tao is old and he doesn't like to ask too much. However, Liang Boyu finally couldn't help asking Huang Yifei when he was free: "Is it a little too extravagant to take over the entire floor of the Empire State Building as the address of the press conference?"

Hearing Liang Boyu's words, Huang Yifei just smiled, then stood by the window, looked at the American street scene outside and said silently:

"Boyu, do you know that when I first came to the United States, I was playing the World Championships. At that time, I was just an unknown amateur boxer. China is also a country with very weak boxing foundations. I was in the center of boxing in the United States, and no one could see me, and no one could see Chinese boxing."

"At that time, I and the national team were full of cold eyes and ridicule, but I had no strength or historical record to fight back in person. At that time, the coach said, remember these eyes until they hit them in the ring and dare not look directly at you!"

"I remembered this sentence, and any opponent standing in front of me. But I was still ridiculed by American boxers because we Chinese do not have professional boxing champions! I said something at that time, do you want to know?"

"What's the matter?"

"There is no professional boxing champion in China now, which does not mean there will be no in the future. One day, your professional boxing in the United States will be conquered by the Chinese!" To be continued.
