Won the gold belt prize of 5000 yuan and became the Olympic disposable boxing champion title
Two sessions in 2013 Olympic Games Boxing The champion Zou Shiming changed his career. At that time, many domestic boxing fans praised him. They said that with his level, he could have been popular in the professional boxing arena in the past four years, but he earned four more years of dead wages for Chinese boxing to make a difference in the London Olympic Games. Now, three years later, Zou Shiming has been doing well in the professional boxing arena, and since the Olympic Games this year, the International Olympic Committee has also allowed professional boxers to participate in the Olympic Games. From this point of view, the Olympic Games and professional double handedness are a way out for boxers, especially women's boxing, which is just starting now. In fact, the promotion and development of women's boxing is far from being comparable to men's boxing.
In the past 100 years, women's boxing has been banned in various countries in the world. A few years ago, women entered the Olympic Games for the reason of "not letting men's boxing limp". It can be seen that the boxing ring is still the world of men. Women's boxing has low attention and low income. The professionalization of female boxing in China is low, and the boxers are often in a dilemma between professional competition and Olympic qualification. The way out after retirement is also very narrow.
The income of professional competitions is higher than that of amateurs, but it is not much higher in women's boxing. Xu Chunyan, a Ningbo boxer who once won the 57KG national elite championship, was transformed from "within the system" to a professional in 2013. The professional competition is more free and free from all the constraints of large-scale events. Xu Chunyan likes it very much. She has won the gold belt of the "Happy New Year Cup" WBC champion competition for 14 years, and the gold belt of the "China Thailand Cup" WBA champion competition for 15 years. What's the result? The appearance fee of a game is only 5000 dollars at most. After deducting the fees of agents and coaches, only half of the players can get it. Until now, Xu Chunyan has often asked her family for money, and she also wanted to return to the system. After all, she managed to pay her salary. "There is nothing you need to worry about." Xu Chunyan said, but the Olympic women's boxing group does not have 57KG. If you want to go up or down, it is too difficult to go back.
Before her, Zhang Xiyan, the lightweight champion of the Women's Boxing Association in 2006. She was the first world champion of professional women's boxing in China. The reason why she turned to her profession at the beginning was that she could not see the hope of women's boxing entering the Olympic Games. A few years later, women's boxing successfully entered the Olympic Games. Zhang Xiyan returned to amateur boxing. As a result, the International Amateur Boxing Federation of London Olympic Games in 2012 did not allow boxers who had played professional boxing to participate in the Olympic Games, In addition to personal status, group competition and other reasons, the trip failed.
Zhang Xiyan's professional competition income is higher than Xu Chunyan's, and the appearance fee can be up to 20000 dollars, but she is not at the peak after all. The professionalization of women's boxing has a long way to go Ren Cancan Tian Dong said, "Professional boxing has its own way of playing. A successful athlete needs not only strength, but also someone to run competition promotion and packaging." Of course, the best way is to get support from the government and enterprises. But it seems unrealistic now, and what can be achieved through commercial promotion alone, including brokers, coaches and boxers themselves, I don't know. At present, Cai Zongju, a sister from Yantai, has the best record in professional boxing. She has four-star strength (Zou Shiming, by contrast, has only two and a half stars). At the beginning, she turned to professional boxing because she could not play in a professional team. It is strange. From her future development, we may see the future direction of women's boxing.
These are the most successful female boxers who have retired from the system. Being a fitness coach is a better way for them. However, the salary of thousands of yuan a month is better than staying in the system. With the return of women's boxing to the Olympic arena, the Olympic champion is certainly a good promotion channel, but as long as you join the Olympic preparation team, you are doomed to be out of luck with professional boxers. The case of Zou Shiming is ahead. The monthly salary of 2000 yuan is very different from the appearance fee of 700000 dollars, because the leader of the Sports Bureau said that he waited until he was 31 years old to embark on a career path. The problem is that the current women's boxing, within and outside the system, is at most the difference between the appearance fee of thousands of yuan and thousands of dollars.
Conclusion: The election to the Olympic Games on the basis of equality between men and women reflects the weak foundation of the project. Without a mass base, there is no way out for any movement. It is not helpful for the promotion of these sports to dominate the Olympic Games by cultivating world champions in weightlifting and gymnastics. Since returning to the Olympic Games in 2012, women's boxing in China is still rootless.
