Chapter 1146 Unstoppable Momentum Part 2

Suddenly, the American boxer lunged forward, launching a rapid jab toward Su Jing's face, displaying surprising speed. At that moment, almost everyone believed that Su Jing, who didn't even assume a defensive stance, would be unable to dodge and would be finished, right?

To everyone's astonishment, Su Jing didn't even bother evading. With lightning-fast reflexes, his fist struck the American boxer's face just before the latter's jab could connect. 

The American boxer's charging posture immediately transformed into a recoil, and his fist, which was about to land on Su Jing's face, had to be hastily retracted.

Before the American boxer could regain his balance from the backward step or recover from the punch, Su Jing's second blow landed on the left temple of his opponent. With a resounding "bang," the American boxer collapsed to the ground, his eyes dazed and vacant.

Once again, the entire audience was left dumbfounded.

"What the hell just happened?"

"The referee immediately began the count. In Olympic boxing, the outcome is determined by two factors. First, scoring punches. In each round, the judges assign points to each athlete based on the number of clean punches they land on the opponent. A scoring hit must be a direct punch with the knuckle part of a closed fist, striking the front or side of the opponent's head or above the waist without any block, obstruction, or defense. Scoring hits from a jab also counts. In close-range exchanges, the scores are assessed at the end of the exchange by considering the degree of advantage one athlete has over the other.

"Second, knockdowns. When a fighter is struck and any part of their body, except their feet, touches the canvas, it is considered a knockdown. If any part of the body falls outside the ring ropes, relies on or hangs from the ropes, or even if the fighter can stand, but the ring referee judges them unable to continue the fight, it is considered a knockdown. Once a fighter is knocked down, the ring referee must immediately halt the fight. The referee begins counting to ten while the fallen fighter must stand up. If they fail to rise by the count of ten, the other fighter wins. If an athlete receives a count of eight seconds three times in a round, or four times in a match, the ring referee can stop the fight and declare the opponent as the winner."

In the case of the American boxer, it was evident that he had been knocked down. The referee initiated the count: "1, 2, 3..." until he reached ten, and the American boxer hadn't managed to rise. In other words, he was knocked out, and Su Jing emerged as the victor.

The audience at the arena and in front of their screens erupted in astonishment.

"Wow, a knockout with just two punches."

"The entire match lasted only a few seconds."

"This Su Jing is incredibly strong!"

"They're not even in the same league."

Chinese fans were filled with excitement and exhilaration.

"Brother Jing truly is the strongest."

"I told you so! Even though boxing rules limit the full expression of martial arts essence, Brother Jing's strength surpasses ordinary people by far. He completely dominates his opponents," Exclaimed someone in the crowd.

"I knew Brother Jing would win, but I didn't expect him to knock out his opponent with punches. Hahaha, he really doesn't give anyone a chance," Commented another person, filled with amusement.

With just two matches, Su Jing's name continued to reverberate throughout the world. His phenomenal performance of scoring 102 points in a single basketball game had already left people in awe, becoming the topic of discussion for many, even those who were not avid basketball fans. 

After all, it was a new world record. And now, within a day, he transitioned from basketball to boxing, delivering a knockout in a matter of seconds. The magnitude of this accomplishment and its impact on public discourse was enormous.

The following day, Su Jing had another competition— Karate. Karate was not originally a part of the Tokyo Olympics' program, but it had been recently added. As the host city for the Olympics, it was only natural for Japan, with its national martial art of karate, to include it.

This time, as Su Jing entered the competition arena, there weren't many people supporting him. The audience consisted mostly of Japanese spectators, who naturally rooted for their own athletes. 

Japanese spectators and athletes tended to be emotionally charged and filled with confidence. On their home turf, engaging in their national martial art, how could they lack confidence?

Even though they had witnessed Su Jing's boxing prowess the day before, the Japanese athletes and spectators didn't pay much attention to it. After all, boxing and karate were different. 

For a simple example, boxing didn't allow the use of kicks, whereas kicking techniques were crucial in karate.

"He's the same Su Jing who defeated you?" The Japanese karate referee asked, sitting next to Kimurai (Mu Cunjing), who had traveled to China and had a conflict with Su Jing at his karate dojo.

"Yes, it's him. But he didn't just defeat me; he single-handedly dueled and defeated the entire 30-40 members of my dojo," Kimurai (Mu Cunjing) replied, recalling the situation with a hint of lingering fear. He added, "This person is simply not human."

"I already know that he's strong, but let's not boost his morale while demeaning our own prestige. This is a karate competition, and he can only use karate. Whether he can handle it remains to be seen. Even if he can, it would be a last-minute attempt to catch up, not something impressive. And in this competition, it's about skill, and various techniques to score points— not brawling. He can't compare to our professional athletes," The referee analyzed.

"You're right," Kimurai (Mu Cunjing) nodded. If it were an unrestricted brawl, he believed that even if all the Japanese karate athletes teamed up, they would still be no match for Su Jing. But if the competition was limited to karate rules, the Japanese athletes had a good chance of winning.

As they spoke, Su Jing and a Japanese karate athlete had already stepped onto the platform. After a simple opening ceremony, the match began.
