At the time, you and Lei Lei were arguing online
Was it he that invited you to Sichuan
Or did you yourself decide to go?
Truthfully...
No matter how hard we argued, it wasn't a problem.
The key factor that got me extremely angry was that
Lei Lei took my phone number
And my other personal details and put it all on his Weibo (Chinese version of Twitter)
Public Platform!
I got 200 calls that night.
I'm not the type of person to turn off my cell phone
So I was about to go crazy with anger.
So I made a pledge to make Lei Lei pay for this
So fighting Lei Lei
And where it was going to take place etc.
Involved me asking Lei Lei
And Lei Lei agreeing, and I showed up
Now I know
Um...and then
In the video that was recorded during the match
Was that an MMA gym? What was the setting of the fight?
It was an MMA gym -Oh, it was an MMA gym!
Yep, it was an MMA gym
But Lei Lei required that it couldn't take place in the ropes. It had to be on the ground.
Lei Lei also said we had to wear shoes.
We could only wear shoes
Lei Lei said we could hit the groin and hit the eye
I agreed and I said
"You can even bite me, just don't bring any weapons."
But fight any way you want.
Because online there were creators who said
You guys fought in a basement
But I saw in the video that it wasn't in a basement, that's why I had to ask you specifically
So it was in a gym, an MMA gym.
So for this...
We have clarify -That's right...
And that was a mall in WangFuJing
And it was in the ninth floor of WangFuJing
The gym was in up in the sky
So we fought in the sky, not below the ground.
So it was in the sky!
It definitely is hard in the video to tell
Because the lighting
So if people thought that it was in a basement, I guess it is forgivable.
With the light, it definitely didn't look like it was in the sky.
So you were standing with Lei Lei there.
And the fight was about to happen, did you think that
You'd win easily, or were you really uncertain?
Okay...at that point
I didn't know if I'd win or I'm in limbo.
I'll tell you that at the time
I only felt anger
I didn't care who he was. Even if he were an MMA champion
I will charge in there and start hitting...even if I lose
Because I was just angry. No other feeling.
So the referee says, "Fight."
And I remember a spectator said, "Just go for it."
"Just fight." And you went jab cross on him.
Was that from anger too or
Were you planning the 1 2 1 2 striking on him?
Not at all. I was angry. No plan at all. Just wanted to hit him.
I felt like kicking and throwing were all too much work.
I wanted to bruise up his face completely.
Bruise him up completely
Give him bruises.
Alright
So you KOed him in about 7 seconds
And then right afterwards
I remember the video was quite long
And he spoke to the crowd
And people were saying at least he stepped up to the mat, which is commendable
After this event
It went viral around the entire world
How did you feel then?
Honestly, I didn't feel much
All I felt was no regret
I didn't think it was something amazing.
Not at all
Even more bluntly
It was just something personal
It was me getting revenge on him.
I never thought the event would get shared so much.
At the time you already had the "Brother Xu's Spicy Breakdowns" show?
That's right.
