Chapitre 63: Chapter 63: Mindset
"Aragon must win!"
The Cuban audience at the game continued to shout loudly.
Someone in the audience played the blue, white and red Cuban flag and waved it vigorously.
Some people put several crocodile skin drums on the second floor and beat them vigorously, and there was also a group of Cuban dancers who brought unique singing and dancing performances to the audience in the open space in the middle.
Especially when a group of scantily clad Cuban girls took to the ring and twisted their waists vigorously to perform Cuban tropical dances, the cheers from the scene almost lifted the roof off.
"Aragon, don't be nervous, relax in the game, we have already got the Olympic qualification, even if we lose, it doesn't matter, understand?"
In the rest area of the ring, Felix Saron was doing pre-match psychological counseling with Aragon.
For an elite boxer, strong physical fitness and superb boxing skills are far from enough.
There is also a more important boxing quality - mentality, also known as psychological quality, which can often become the key to winning a game.
Boxers with good psychological quality can display 100%, 120% of their strength in the competition, while boxers with poor psychological quality will be very anxious before the competition, and they will often have abnormal performance after taking the stage.
For example, Tyson, although Tyson has a strong body and violent fists, people in the industry generally believe that his psychological quality has limited his development in boxing.
In Tyson's professional career, he was defeated by James Douglas, Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Danny Williams, and Kevin McBride successively, and he never succeeded in revenge once afterwards.
In addition, in boxing matches, every time a match exceeds five rounds, Tyson will start to become impatient, and his state will also decline, which has a lot to do with his psychological quality.
Compared with Tyson, Muhammad Ali's psychological quality is amazing. Ali was defeated by Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Leon Spinks and others, but soon after, Ali defeated these opponents again in the second round.
Ali's never-say-die spirit is also one of the reasons why he is praised.
According to the research of "Boxing" magazine, boxers like Ali who have strong psychological qualities are not only related to their personal growth environment, but also related to their experience in participating in competitions. People who have participated in many large-scale competitions often have a good psychological quality. This is called competition experience in the boxing world.
For example, boxing champions such as Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Holyfield, and Lennox Lewis have all participated in the Olympic Games. Tyson has participated in the Olympic trials and is a two-time American Youth Olympic Games boxing champion and the 1984 Golden Gloves Championship heavyweight champion.
These are the experience of the competition.
If a person without experience in competitions is suddenly asked to compete in a boxing ring surrounded by tens of thousands of people, his performance will definitely not be very good.
Lorenzo Aragon has participated in many large-scale boxing competitions such as the Olympic Games, World Championships, and Pan American Games, so his psychological quality will naturally not be bad.
But the problem is that this is the first time Aragon has participated in a large-scale boxing match in Cuba.
Out of this consideration, Felix Saron decided to do more psychological counseling for his disciples before the game to prevent him from having "competition anxiety".
"Felix, don't worry, I will definitely beat that guy and win the American championship."
Lorenzo Aragon wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel.
"Stop! Please stop thinking like this, Lorenzo!"
Saron pressed Aragon's shoulders with both hands, staring into his dark eyes and said, "Remember my request, I'm not asking you to win the American championship, my request is not to get hurt, protect yourself, understand?"
"I understand, but I will definitely win."
Aragon said firmly.
Saron patted him on the shoulder, silently encouraging him.
"Come on Aragon!"
"Aragon must win!"
The surrounding Cuban boxers shouted while waving their fists.
â€"â€"
"Link, don't be too nervous, you really don't need to be too nervous, we have already got the Olympic spot, this game is optional, what you need to do is to complete this game, no matter whether you win or lose."
In the red rest area, coach Ed is doing ideological work for Link again, and there is nothing new in his words, it's all the same old stuff.
Link glanced at Ed who was sweating profusely, and said with a smile: "Ed, I understand, it's you who don't need to be nervous. This game is only 8 minutes. Maybe you can go to the toilet and you'll know the result when you come back. Of course, you don't need to go. You can also know, because there is only one result, I am the champion."
Coach Ed laughed.
Having been a boxing coach for decades, and having more than ten years of experience as a national team boxing coach, Link is the strangest boxer he has ever seen. This guy has debuted for less than two months and has only experienced more than a dozen games before the qualifiers. Amateur competition.
But in the competition, he showed a psychological quality that was surprisingly strong. No matter how large the competition was, no matter how strong the opponent was, he was always so confident, always so relaxed and comfortable, and always so arrogant.
Ed has studied for several days, but he still hasn't figured out how a rookie boxer like him can have such a good, even abnormal, psychological quality.
After analysis by colleagues, everyone thinks that he should belong to the kind of performance personality, the bigger the scene, the more relaxed he can be, and he is a material for a star.
"Okay, since you're not nervous, I won't say much, come on!"
Coach Ed patted him on the shoulder.
"Come on Link!"
"Link will win!"
Morales, Andrzej and several others clenched their fists and shouted at him.
噹噹噹!
The opening bell rang, Link put on his braces, took off the thermal blanket on his body, moved his arms a few times in the posture of pushing a cart, and jumped onto the boxing ring.
"Aragon must win!"
"Aragon Champion!"
When I stepped onto the boxing ring, the shouts of the audience at the scene became clearer and louder, deafening, but Link was not timid at all. A truly strong person is from the inside out, even if one person faces the enemy's army, when the heart is strong enough , thousands of troops are like grass and mustard.
"Link!!!"
Suddenly there was a sharp, high-pitched, even broken shout from the stands.
"champion!!"
A group of people followed and shouted.
Link turned his head, and saw Fatty James in the middle of the second floor of the auditorium, waving a red flag vigorously in the air. There were hundreds of people in red T-shirts sitting beside him, Daniel, Michael, Leisas, and Franco Duva, and many familiar faces.
They stood among the Cubans, waving their arms, shaking like waves, their movements very exaggerated.
"Link!!"
Fatty James shouted, waving his flag.
"champion!!!"
The group raised their arms again and shook them exaggeratedly.
Link laughed, raised his fist and waved at them.
"Aragon! Champion!!"
The Cuban audience was very dissatisfied that their voices were suppressed by a small group of Americans, and they also shouted in unison.
Link smiled lightly, and turned to look at his opponent Lorenzo Aragon who was walking towards him.
