Boxing in the world is currently divided into "professional boxing" and "amateur boxing".

Let’s talk about amateur boxing first. The Olympics is the most influential event in amateur boxing. Most professional boxing champions have competed in the Olympics before changing careers, but they are basically around 20 years old. To put it bluntly, they used the Olympics to become famous when they first debuted.

, use it as a springboard to a career.

This means that in Olympic boxing competitions, the level of contestants must be much worse than that of professional boxing, and the excitement must be compromised.

Then its influence is definitely much worse than the current two major professional boxing organizations WBA and WBC, which can be seen from the ratings and attention.

Therefore, in the system evaluation, the influence of an Olympic boxing gold medal is far less than that of winning the gold belts of the two major professional boxing organizations, and the benefits of winning the Olympic gold medal are naturally not as high as those of the gold belts of these two major events.

As for professional boxing matches, to put it bluntly, it is commercial boxing - boxers earn appearance fees and fame through matches, organizers use profitability as the criterion for the success of an event, and the audience enjoys the passion brought by boxing.

, you can also play betting like watching the Football World Cup, then there will naturally be a betting group with huge interests behind the event, and such a complete ecological chain will appear.

At this stage, there are only two professional boxing organizations, namely WBA and WBC. In 1983, the third largest boxing organization IBF would be established. At that time, there were three major boxing organizations.

These three boxing organizations all have their own certification systems, and each level has its own "golden belt" boxer, which is often referred to as the "boxing champion."

The rules of the three major professional boxing organizations are similar. If a boxer wants to become a professional boxer, he must first be over 18 years old, and then obtain a professional boxing license recognized by the three major boxing organizations. After success, he can participate in the three major events.

It's a professional game.

At this time, professional boxers will arrange matches through brokerage companies or promoters, starting with the lowest level matches. The more wins they get, the more points they can get, and the more points they can get, they can compete with high-level opponents.

Competition qualifications and appearance fees will also become higher and higher with results.

This upgrade will continue until the points rise to the top fifteen in the boxing organization, and then you will be qualified to challenge the boxing champion.

The three major boxing organizations have similar challenge rules in this area, and each boxing organization has a gold belt champion.

Generally speaking, the boxing champion needs to defend his title in a freely selected fight every three months.

However, in order to prevent the boxing champion from only picking weak persimmons, his boxing organization will also arrange a mandatory title defense every six months. In this game, the top-ranked boxer designated by the organization will usually challenge the active boxing champion.

If the boxing champion wishes to postpone the challenge, the boxing organization will also postpone it to a certain extent based on the reasons.

But if you refuse challenges one after another, you will be stripped of the gold belt by the boxing organization, and then the top players in the organization will compete for it.

Now counting the soon-to-be-established ibf, there will be three major professional boxing organizations in the world.

A professional boxer is not limited to competing in one boxing organization. If his strength permits, he can compete in three organizations at the same time.

Future super boxing champions such as Tyson, Holyfield, Riddick Bowe, Lewis, and Klitschko have all become "world boxing champions" in two or more organizations. Middleweight Hope

Kings even controlled the boxing champions of the four major organizations of WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO at the same time.

At this time, I would also like to mention the boxing promoter. This is an indispensable part of the professional boxing arena. It is mainly responsible for helping boxers contact matches that are beneficial to them, as well as promoting the match, expanding the influence of the players and the match, thereby obtaining high benefits for both parties.

Benefit.

This benefit is not a small amount. In boxing, the annual income of those boxing champion-level players has always been among the best among all sports. This has a lot to do with the promotion of promoters.

In 1974, Ali and Foreman each received US$5 million in appearance fees, setting a new record for appearance fees in a single game.

In 1988, Tyson set a record of US$22 million in appearance fees, becoming the first boxer to earn more than US$20 million in a single game.

After that, there were more and more games with appearance fees of more than 20 million U.S. dollars. At the end of the 1990s, the appearance fees had reached 50 million U.S. dollars. After the turn of the millennium, appearance fees began to reach 100 million U.S. dollars.

Of course, only the top boxing champions can get this kind of appearance fee. In fact, about half of the tens of thousands of professional boxers in the United States are facing the situation of having no matches to fight, and most of the rest can only get a few hundred dollars.

Appearance fees, and even promoters have to be paid to fight.

This industry has a typical pyramid structure. About 90% of the benefits that all boxers can obtain are taken away by the top nearly 100 boxers, and most of these 90% benefits are taken away by boxing champions at various levels.

.

This means that you cannot become a boxing champion. Even if you can become a top 15 fighter in the three major organizations, the appearance fee for each game is tens of thousands of dollars, which is why so many people are forced to box underground.

Wu Jie's current plan for Qin Jian is to first strive for the gold medal in the 1984 Olympics, and then turn into a professional boxer with the Olympic halo.

At that time, Qin Jian had the dual halo of being a Chinese boxer and an Olympic champion, and could easily win the favor of top American agencies and promoters. The three major boxing organizations, including TV stations, would also regard his participation as a promotional focus.

At that time, no matter which organization Qin Jian chose to start his career, he would only need five or six games to be qualified to challenge for the boxing championship, and he would not have to worry about having no games at all.

He hoped that Qin Jian could win the gold belts of the three major boxing organizations one by one. At that time, each organization only had to defend its title two or three times a year. As long as it was undefeated, it could hold the three gold belts for a long time and create an era of its own.

After Wu Jie made Qin Jian's plan for the next two years, his wallet became empty again.

But instead of consuming a lot of points, the two most valuable five-star physical talents and special talents were used.

Now all he has left in his family is a few hundred thousand Olympic points, which is no longer enough to become a track and field toolman.

So next, he has to earn points with the tools again.

This season, Chen Haonan is in La Liga and Lin Yaodong is in Serie A. They can just get the championship and cup rewards of these two leagues. The points obtained by these tools will also be collected in his wallet.

This year the five major leagues start at about the same time, basically around mid-August.

Wu Jie began to focus on the game. Of course, he would also be interviewed by Isabella in away games from time to time.

Bayern had to accept Wu Jie's request to live in a single room during away games, and Han Qing would not travel with him during away games. This was a good opportunity for him to steal some food!

Next, the first thing he gained again was the men's basketball team.

At the end of August, the second Basketball Club World Cup ended. The Bayi team defeated the host Italian Cantu Club in the final and successfully defended the Club World Cup championship.

Ruda averaged 33 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 4 blocks in 6 games. He once again won the MVP of the Club World Cup and was selected to the best team of this year's Club World Cup.

This achievement has made him famous all over the world, but unfortunately the influence of basketball and football is still incomparable. Ruda's influence around the world is still far lower than that of Wu Jie, including his domestic influence.

Yu Chen Haonan is even on the verge of being overtaken by Lin Yaodong.

This is indeed too difficult, but the hardest thing is volleyball.

This time, the Chinese men's volleyball team achieved fourth place in the World Championships, but the domestic media reported it in less than a hundred words, making it almost nonexistent.

The women's volleyball team was not much better. The girls defeated the host country Peru in straight games in the final and won the World Women's Volleyball Championship for the first time. However, they received only a little more coverage than the Bayi Men's Basketball Team.

The focus of most of the country's attention now is football. CCTV still has not purchased live broadcast rights this season, but has purchased delayed broadcast rights for three leagues.

This is happy enough for domestic viewers. CCTV is already preparing to set up a sports channel before the Olympic Games. It is said that most of the cost will come from sponsorship by the "China Sports Foundation".

This is ten years earlier than the original plane. The main reason is naturally the rise of football and basketball.

Now that the three major sports have obviously become world-class, CCTV cannot always use comprehensive channels to broadcast sports games. It can only establish a professional sports TV channel as soon as possible that mainly broadcasts sports events and sports reports.

And in September, the Chinese men's basketball team finally had a chance to show itself in front of the people across the country.

CCTV has decided to broadcast this Men's Basketball World Championship live, and Chinese fans will be able to see the Chinese Men's Basketball Team compete with the world's top teams for the first time.

Wu Jie attaches great importance to this competition because he has long been given a main task related to it - "unveil the mystery!"

"Task requirement (1): Please help the Chinese men's basketball team enter the quarterfinals!"

"Task reward: 20,000 Olympic coins, any diamond-level card!"

"Task requirement (2): Please help the Chinese men's basketball team enter the semi-finals!"

"Task reward: 50,000 Olympic coins, any four-star physical talent, any four-star special talent!"

"Task requirement (3): Please help the Chinese men's basketball team win the championship!"

"Task reward: 100,000 Olympic coins, any legendary card!"

Although the rewards for such tasks are worse than those of the Football World Cup, they are still an income not to be missed.

"We only finished 11th last time. This is definitely not a ranking that matches our strength. This time we hope to show our best side to the world!"
