This star is too fierce

"Second brother, come on!"

"Second brother is so handsome!"

"Second brother, I love you!"

Familiar scenes, familiar lines.

Lu Bu's current popularity belongs to the first echelon among domestic celebrities. Not to mention 1.8 tickets, even 18 are not enough, so a large number of fans cannot go to the venue to watch Dana White's challenge. Race.

As a result, many of them chose to come outside the stadium to cheer for their idols, causing congestion on the three floors inside and outside the Magic City Stadium.

"Lu Bu, can you tell me what your original intention was in participating in the UFC? Is it to build hype for the next two parts of the Three Kingdoms trilogy?"

"Lu Bu, in the upcoming match, how long do you plan to defeat your opponent? The Internet says that your bragging ability is greater than your actual combat ability. Do you have anything to say about this?"

"Lu Bu, can you talk about your current relationship status? Someone photographed you and Yu Feihong traveling together. Are you together?"

In addition to fans, there are also passers-by and media reporters.

Media reporters loved this occasion the most. It was also a rare opportunity to face Lu Bu face to face. Sharp questions, trapping questions, and gossipy questions were all thrown out.

But how can these questions be answered?

"Thank you everyone for your support, please stay safe."

Lu Bu said a word of thanks and, escorted by security personnel, passed through the crowd and entered the venue.

"Brother, this is the arrangement before the game."

After Liu Liang contacted the staff, he brought out a form with detailed arrangements for the hour before the game.

1. Exclusive interview with Modu Sports Channel;
Although the UFC has gone to talk to CCTV, it is not an ordinary matter to broadcast mixed martial arts matches on CCTV5. It has to face numerous reviews. The results can take as little as one and a half years, and as long as three to five years. In the end, they can only Choose a local station with relatively loose audits.

Lu Bu participates in the UFC competition out of interest and to increase his popularity, so being interviewed is inevitable.

2. Shoot promotional videos for Samsung mobile phones;

If it was unprofitable, why would Samsung Mobile spend so much money to sponsor this competition? They will release their first smartphone running the Android operating system this year. The series name is Galaxy and the model is i7500. So I borrowed this Opportunity to spread the word.

Lu Bu's endorsement contract with Samsung mobile phones is still for three years, and the latest contract has more than a year left. As a spokesperson, he naturally has to stand up for the brand.

3. Wait for the game to start.

This time is for players to warm up and adjust their condition.

Lu Bu planned to go backstage to meet his friends and chat, which was also a way to relax.

As for the weighing, it was completed the day before yesterday and yesterday.

UFC weigh-ins are usually divided into Official Weigh-In official weigh-in and Ceremonial Weigh-In weigh-in ceremony.

Official Weigh-In is usually about 36 hours before the competition. It is supervised by the local sports committee and faced with the actual weigh-in of the major MMA media. Each participating boxer cannot exceed the upper limit of his or her weight class for the competition. This weighing process is a strict process in which contestants usually run hard, use saunas, and then even have to go on the scale in order to reach the weight standard. Therefore, during this weighing process, you will see all kinds of shriveled skeletons.

The Ceremonial Weigh-In ceremony is usually 5 to 8 hours after the official weigh-in. The players have gone through the difficult Official Weigh-In process. They eat and drink to restore a certain weight. They appear in full condition and look at each other before facing the media. and fans. At this time, they are just broadcasting the Official Weigh-In value to create an atmosphere for the official competition warm-up the next day.

Someone may ask here, there is a period of time between the weigh-in and the official competition, and there is no rule during this period that stipulates that players cannot gain weight?If some players take the opportunity to gain weight at will, what is the point of weighing in?
In fact, this issue has been debated endlessly.

Most players will choose to dehydrate and lose weight before the weigh-in, and then rehydrate and gain weight after passing the weigh-in. In other words, the weight during the competition is not the weight at the weigh-in, or even reaches a higher level. .

This is a question of trade-offs. After all, this is a competition that focuses on spectatorship. In order to expand resources, if the weigh-in is just completed and the fight begins, then half the number of people in a weight class will be reduced.

In fact, dehydration ability is also a reflection of a player's strength. In modern mixed martial arts competitions, two players on the field compete not only in skills, but also in physical hardware and team tactics.

Why do players do this?
It can be simply understood that weight determines attack power and defense power.

Generally speaking, arm span and height are strongly related. A longer arm span means a greater attack distance. On the basis of the same pace flexibility, a longer range means a higher attack efficiency.

What weight brings is a simple and crude offensive and defensive bonus. You must know that the correct way to exert force for punching and kicking is to transform body weight into fists and legs. Amateur boxers do not know how to twist the waist to exert force, and only rely on When swinging the arm, the conversion rate is low. The standard movements of professional players have a high conversion rate. So on the basis of the same fighting skills of both parties, the heavier person will naturally punch harder.

The defensive bonus is better understood. The greater the weight, the more fat or muscle, both of which are the basis of the ability to withstand hits.

However, Lu Bu is an exception.

First, his weight has remained stable and he does not need to dehydrate before weighing in. At most, he needs to skip two meals.

Secondly, he doesn’t need to gain weight after weighing in, and that little bit of weight will have minimal impact on his overall strength.

In the end, he doesn't care about how other players lose or gain weight, because in the face of absolute strength, all the bells and whistles are in vain.

At this time, Lu Bu glanced at the form, nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then go directly to the interview."

Liu Liang responded with a "hmm" and then found the staff member who had just interacted with him to lead the way.

Soon, they arrived at a temporarily arranged room for interviews in the Magic City Stadium.

The person responsible for the exclusive interview this time is Cao Kefan, a famous host of Modou Channel and Oriental Channel. He has hosted many classic programs, including "Kefan Listens", "Come on, Good Man", etc.

His interviewing skills are pretty good among his peers, and he has interviewed big stars such as Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, and Zhou Suichi.

"Hello."

"Hello."

After a few simple polite words, the formal interview began.

Cao Kefan faced the camera and said: "Nowadays, combat sports account for an increasing proportion in sports competitions, and young people are becoming more and more interested in watching fighting competitions. The guest we invited today is the hottest Asian athlete. Superstar——Lu Bu." He made an introduction, then looked at Lu Bu and said with a smile: "I really want to know, you have been so successful in movies, TV series, music, and archery, why did you choose to join the UFC? Contest?"

Lu Bu smiled lightly and said concisely: "Interest."

Cao Kefan continued: "Can it be understood that martial arts practitioners have a pursuit of fighting in their bones?"

Lu Bu shrugged and said, "That's understandable."

Cao Kefan continued: "There are many voices outside discussing whether traditional martial arts can be fought. At the same time, some people pointed out that the reason why you participated in the UFC competition is to rectify the name of traditional martial arts. Is this correct?"

Lu Bu smiled and said: "Yes, but not completely right. In fact, the type and level of traditional martial arts I know are not high, so to say that I am trying to rectify the name of traditional martial arts is too flattering to me, but I have always had Integrating traditional martial arts into actual combat."

Cao Kefan's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean, traditional martial arts can be used in actual combat?"

Lu Bu said calmly: "Yes, and no... I think what most people think of actual combat actually refers to fighting in the ring, that is, a competition, to knock down the opponent or score points to win, and there are rules. There are certain restrictions. In my opinion, this is not actual combat. What is actual combat? Either you die or I die. There are no restrictions on the action. There is only one purpose, killing the opponent. The difference between the two is still very big, and this As a result, some of the most critical methods in traditional martial arts cannot be used."

Cao Kefan asked: "So, are you better at competitions? Or actual combat?"

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Now is a society governed by law. Where can there be fighting and killing? I am just an ordinary person who likes to tinker with traditional martial arts and various fighting in my free time..."

Facing the camera and Cao Kefan, Lu Bu was calm and composed, as steady as a rock.

After a few questions, Cao Kefan also realized that it would be difficult to dig out explosive news from Lu Bu's mouth.

In this way, a normal interview ended.

This interview will be edited immediately and broadcast shortly.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Bu and Liu Liang were led by the staff to another room.

"Oh, I didn't expect that a small commercial shoot would have you, the CEO, come in person." Lu Bu joked when he saw Li Hanzhen there. "You are the noble person of our Samsung mobile phone, so naturally we cannot neglect you." Li Hanzhen heard the words and smiled softly.

When friends meet, greetings are inevitable.

However, because there were too many people around, we couldn't talk too much.

After a while, the filming started.

Lu Bu is already familiar with shooting advertisements.

What's more, this small advertisement is not particularly formal, it is equivalent to a promotional video, used to warm up.

I only had to do it a few times, touch up my makeup, do my hair, adjust the lighting, etc., and the photo was taken in about ten minutes.

After it was done, Lu Bu came to Li Hanzhen and said, "It's almost time. I'm going to get ready to play. We'll talk in the evening."

Li Hanzhen nodded slightly and said, "Well, come on."

After leaving the room, Lu Bu followed Liu Liang and went straight to his preparation area.

And Yu Feihong and others are all here. After all, it is not an event of the Olympics, and the management is not that strict.

"Second brother!"

Everyone stood up from their stools to greet him.

"I'm going to change clothes first."

Lu Bu left a few words and entered the changing room.

After waiting for a few minutes, when he came out again, he was so surprised that everyone said "Wow".

It’s possible to liven up your appearance at UFC matches, but most of them involve dancing.

This time, he's going for a big one.

"Second brother, with your outfit, the screams coming from the scene will probably knock off the roof of the gymnasium."

"Absolutely, really."

"Very personal."

Everyone praised him.

Lu Bu smiled slightly and said, "It's almost done. I'm embarrassed to say it."

Seeing that he was very relaxed and in good condition, no one mentioned the competition or put pressure on him.

After chatting for a while, the staff came to inform that it was time to play.

"Second brother, come on!"

Everyone did not hesitate, they all sent this sentence to encourage him.

"rest assured."

Lu Bu blinked at them and gave a confident look in return.

Then, he followed the staff to the left channel, where he will appear.

In the right channel on the other side, Nakamura Taro is already in place.

He faced the camera and shook his body, looking very excited. He was dressed very Japanese, in a traditional black kimono, with a white strip of cloth with the word "Must Win" tied on his forehead.

This strip of cloth is called "Baki" in Japanese and is a costume worn by Japanese samurai and ronin in the old days.

"The first player to appear is Taro Nakamura from Japan..."

Amid the host's introduction, Nakamura Taro walked out of the aisle.

"what!!!"

There were many Japanese spectators at the scene who screamed to show their support for their country's players.

Taro Nakamura's expression was very arrogant, and he looked disdainful in the face of the boos from some Chinese audiences.

Arriving in front of the Octagon, under the watchful eye of the referee, he took off his coat, underwear, shoes, and strips of cloth, leaving only a pair of shorts on his body.

After the referee checked for compliance, he put on a mouthguard and applied Vaseline on his face.

Before a UFC match, Vaseline is applied to the face of a fighter. This can smooth the surface of the skin, prevent the gloves from scratching the skin, and slide away the opponent's attacks to reduce damage.

In addition, if an athlete's skin is broken, band-aids cannot be used during the game. Vaseline mixed with epinephrine ointment can only be used to seal the wound, so Vaseline is also one of the tools to stop bleeding.

Finally, Taro Nakamura entered the octagonal cage to warm up.

"The next person on the stage is Lu Bu, a player from China..."

When the host's introduction sounded, countless pairs of eyes looked to the left channel.

After waiting for a moment, Lu Bu appeared dressed in white, holding a folding fan and riding a black horse.

"Fuck!"

"Second brother is awesome!"

"My 24K titanium alloy dog ​​eyes are so handsome!"

"Haha, it must be the second brother himself, the king of the whole thing!"

"The momentum has already overwhelmed more than one person."

"Book your best UFC appearance."

……

Lu Bu's clothes were custom-made by Jinxiu Hanfu, so the dark horse was naturally Black Wind.

Fanning himself and looking leisurely, this appearance made Taro Nakamura's lips twitch.

snort!
You like to play, right?
The fight will start later and see if you can play again!
Lu Bu arrived in front of the octagonal cage, dismounted, and handed the reins and fan to Liu Liang.

Then, in front of everyone, he took off his clothes.

When I saw that iconic figure, the sounds of "Wow" and swallowing came from the audience.

Although the way to build a body is to build muscle, the resulting figure is different. There are muscle giants on the bodybuilding stage, pursuing exaggerated muscle circumference and great visual effects, and there are also exquisite and well-proportioned figures, skin colors, and body proportions. The muscle proportions are perfect.

Lu Bu belongs to the latter.

Every inch of his muscle is added in just the right place, creating a sense of coordination and just the right amount of beauty.

And he waved his hand facing the audience, causing a deafening scream, and then turned around and entered the Octagon. (End of chapter)
