The Bullied One Is Too Good at Fighting - Chapter 175
Bullying is too good at martial arts (175)
Come up, won’t it be okay to stick together? etc.
As soon as the news of the flawless heavyweight month became known, challenges from heavyweight players lined up.
Unlike the light heavyweights, the heavyweights had absolute confidence even against the unmatched.
Pride in being on the battlefield of some of the strongest humans on Earth.
It was because he was full of confidence that he had strong fighting power compared to any other weight class.
Mugyeol also wanted to go up to the octagon and compete with heavyweights, but he couldn’t.
Because in order to compete in a heavyweight fight, you have to build a physique worthy of a heavyweight.
In order for Mugyeol to advance to the heavyweight division, he had to complete this assignment perfectly.
Until now, he has continued his career by moving forward in a lower weight class, but the heavyweight division is a different case.
So far, if you have been losing weight to run in a lower weight class than usual, this time, on the contrary, you must succeed in increasing your weight beyond your usual weight.
The current average weight of Mugyeol is around 100 kg.
100kg was by no means a light weight, but most heavyweight fighters average over 110kg.
In the case of current heavyweight No. 1 Wilfred Nkulu, his usual weight is about 132kg.
He is a crazy physical owner who has to lose a whopping 12kg to compete in the heavyweight division.
No matter how excellent Mugyeol’s physical strength was, it was difficult to deal with a monster that weighed more than 30 kg with just the strength he had now.
Juvis, who has now become an exclusive trainer of Absolute, revealed his opinion on weight gain.
“I will be honest. If you want to gain weight properly, you will have to take a year off from racing.”
“One year?”
“But you would never want that kind of void, right?”
Mugyeol nodded his head as if it were natural.
“Then, if you do an ultra-intensive program for 6 months, you will be able to gain about 6kg of muscle. If you can use a supplement that works well, it will take less time, but you have to avoid what WFC says not to eat.”
“Does it take six months?”
“This is also possible because Cha Moo-gyeol’s neuromuscular system is so morally developed. If you add some fat here, it will be easier to gain weight, but that is the choice of Cha Moo-gyeol.”
However, Moogyeol shook his head at the word fat increase.
Mugyeol himself knew the body better than anyone else.
If you make a body with fat attached to the weight, you will lose one of the best advantages, a light step.
If so, your speed will drop as well and you may lose your competitive edge at heavyweight.
Even if the weight itself drops a little, you have to make a body that makes use of your strengths properly.
What he wanted was simple.
“Can you build a body that does not lose speed while increasing muscle mass?”
“You have a knack for making difficult words very easy.”
“No one would say such a thing. But Coach Juvis is a talented person.”
Coach Juvis twitched his lips as if he was embarrassed by the praise.
“It’s not okay to praise it like that.”
“Ah Coach.”
“But if I had only said no, I wouldn’t have signed an exclusive contract with this big money.”
“Great, too!”
“This is probably the hardest time in training so far.”
“I am confident.”
“great. Let’s die together for six months.”
That’s how the hellish increase training began.
The training routine at the Taereung National Athlete’s Village was also complete without whistling, but this training was really to die for.
It was a series of screams every day, but Coach Juvis never cared about it.
“Keah-.”
“You said you were confident! Where is the person who said that!?”
“But this isn’t it, Coach!”
“No, what’s wrong? One more!”
“Kwaaaaagh-!”
At the personal training center of the flawless, the screams didn’t stop every day.
The basic process of bulking up through nutritional intake and converting it into muscle gain through heavy exercise was the same.
However, what Juvis and Mugyeol focused on was to increase their power and not lose their speed during this process.
For him, he continuously trained his fast muscles through high-density powerlifting training.
From the tip of the big toe to the cervical vertebrae, the core muscles that hold the center of the body were strengthened from the beginning.
“The life of speed in combat sports is not linear movement. Speed of direction change by securing joint mobility! That’s the point!”
“Yes I know!”
“If you know, let’s do one more set. I still have the energy to answer!”
“Oh really-!”
It was a body that I thought had already been trained to the limit, but surprisingly, the flawless body continued to grow beyond its limits.
Thanks to repeated high-weight powerlifting training, she now has enough skills to compete in powerlifting competitions.
It was phenomenal for him to handle such heavy weights, as he had longer limbs than most powerlifters.
In June 2029, after 3 months of starting the increase, Mugyeol began to show tangible results.
The muscle gain was successful, and above all, explosive power and coordination improved remarkably.
“I’m really not crazy. If aliens invade Earth, they will probably want to take your DNA as a sample.”
Even Juvis was surprised by Mugyeol’s speed of development, but Mugyeol wasn’t satisfied with it.
“Coach, you can still roll more.”
“….”
“Roll more, please.”
“I’ve felt this before, but even Cha Moo-gyeol has a secretly perverted side.”
If enjoying growth through pain is a pervert, Cha Moo-gyeol would be the best pervert in the world.
Although he had already risen to the top of the fight sports industry, he worked hard like a rookie at a draft combine.
Sweat soaked his training center every day.
The physical level that develops day by day surprised even trainer Juvis.
After focusing on weight gain for a full six months.
Mugyeol’s usual weight has successfully increased to 107kg, and his power naturally increased as his weight and muscle mass increased.
A notable achievement is that the speed has hardly decreased in the meantime.
Mugyeol called on his hitting sparring partner, Ryan Van Klassen, for light mass sparring.
Despite his growing physique, Mugyeol pressed Van Classen with unchanging speed.
After the sparring, Van Classen threw off his kick guard and stuck out his tongue.
“The bigger the size, the more the pressure. Besides, the step speed seems to be almost the same.”
Joel Khalid nodded with a satisfied expression and showed Mugyeol a video analyzing the sparring between the two.
“Now, the pace has slowed down a little bit. yes?”
“…I guess so.”
“But the important thing is that I didn’t ‘very much’ lose speed with the weight gain.”
“Hmm.”
“Speed is always a relative concept. Even if your absolute speed has dropped, in relative terms, that much is almost a weapon for heavyweights.”
“Hmm-.”
“Absolutely, this is something to be proud of. Weight gain is a success! Achieved maximum gains with minimal losses. Why don’t you be a little happy?”
Khalid said that and stopped the video.
The innocent expression looked uncomfortable.
“Show me one more time.”
“A video? why?”
“I want to see if it really slowed down.”
“Haha flawless! don’t mind too much It is unavoidable that the speed has slowed down because I have increased the amount. The important thing is relative speed, relative speed!”
“Anyway, it’s a fact that the absolute speed has decreased, right?”
“?”
Unlike Khalid, Mugyeol was not at all satisfied with his expression.
“Innocence?”
“Sorry, I’ll see you one more time.”
“No, I didn’t show you this…”
Khalid scratched his head in embarrassment.
I wanted to say that I didn’t lose ‘only a little bit’ of speed.
No matter what, the only thing that could be heard was that he had ‘lost’ his speed.
“I think I need to increase the training intensity a bit more.”
“I’m going to get tired of that!”
“No, seeing this video just got me motivated.”
“Perfect!”
“I’m going to kick some kicks.”
Mugyeol ran out of the video analysis room and started training again.
Joel Khalid, the head of ‘Stinger’, said to himself as he ended the video with a puzzled expression.
“…Should I consider this a good thing?”
* * *
Finally, after all the weight-enhancing process was over, Mugyeol reopened his SNS account, which had been closed.
It means that he will now accept the challenge of heavyweight players.
As soon as his communication window opened, numerous heavyweight fighters began to attack him as if they had waited.
[I waited for the tea. I’ve heard rumors that you’re getting fat these days. Did you eat a lot of muffins? I’ll brush off the bread crumbs from your mouth. Let’s compete at WFC 516 in October. Welcome to the heavyweight division.]
First, Lucho Pellegri, ranked 19th in the heavyweight division, opened the door.
[Right now, the opponent I want the most is Cha Moo Gyeol. I want to test my strength against him. Everyone says that Cha Moo-gyeol is the best on this floor, but if you’re a real man, of course you want to fight someone like that. Of course you will also make money. I work while being beaten up, but I have to earn money to make ends meet. let’s fight with me Your fist won’t be able to break my earthen pot?]
Sean Carter, who usually doesn’t trash talk at the 16th place in the heavyweight division, also attacked Mugyeol with provocative remarks.
[I heard that Mugyeol Cha spoke badly about Chechnya in Korea. Did you soak the salted fish with the brain? As a fighter representing Chechnya, I want to put my fist in that crow’s jaw for daring to insult our country. If you are confident, come in.]
Yury Kuzaev of Chechnya, ranked 11th in the heavyweight division, tried to create a conflict with no results by mentioning what happened a few years ago.
A situation where everyone is impatient because they want to stick to the zero result.
Mugyeol was contemplating with Lim Jin-soo as they lined up their challenges.
Im Jin-soo’s recommendation is Carlton McCain, ranked 18th in the heavyweight division.
“Why don’t you fight Carlton McCain? Even though he’s a heavyweight, he’s 188cm tall, and his usual weight is around 110kg, so he’s not much different from you.”
“Hmm-.”
“He’s a guy whose strength is explosive blows, but he’s a good match for you. It probably won’t be too different from the light heavyweight fight.”
However, Mugyeol had an expression of dissatisfaction.
“Carlton McCain is a bit…”
“Why? Shelby won’t stick with McCain?”
“No, it’s the other way around. Both Shelby and Chairman Dave said what it would be like to fight McCain. It would be suitable for rowing.”
“Look, this hyung has eyes to see even if he sees this.”
“I know. WFC coach is done.”
It wasn’t just Shelby and White chairman Lim Jin-soo who recommended Carlton McCain.
‘Who would be the most suitable for Cha Mu-gyeol’s first heavyweight match?’
In a poll conducted on this topic, Carlton McCain took first place with 21% of the vote.
However, that was the reason Mugyeol was reluctant to McCain.
“I don’t like playing against opponents who are within everyone’s expectations.”
“No, why?”
“Because it will be evaluated as ‘a rowing match to win comfortably’. I don’t want to build a career that way.”
“Then why don’t you call the players in the top 10 of Assari?”
“I hate that too. You’ll hear that I’m trying to eat it raw after not playing a few games.”
“What is it, your style of caring about people’s reputation?”
At Im Jin-soo’s words, Mu-gyeol refuted with a straight face.
“It is not.”
“okay? But you say you don’t like it when people say, ‘It goes easy’?”
“yes.”
“Then don’t you care about reputation?”
“…Anyways not.”
What the hell isn’t it?
Im Jin-soo burst out laughing, and Moo-gyeol was silent for a while as if he had fallen into a self-inflicted attack.
However, Im Jin-soo understood.
Even the most mature men can sometimes become surprisingly childish.
Especially in front of a place to prove ‘strength’.
Just looking at grown-up men risking their lives for just one arm wrestling, it’s like that.
Nothing is more important than ‘gao’ to a martial artist who has to prove that he is strong throughout his life.
“You don’t want to lose face, right?”
“Something similar.”
“So who do you want to meet?”
Mugyeol confidently chose one of the many challengers.
Im Jin-soo’s mouth dropped open when he saw that name.
“…really?”
“Yeah.”
The opponent Moogyeol chose was the player who took the last place in the ‘Next Opponent of Cha Moogyeol’ vote.
