    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (Mandarin): Zou Shiming
    'Freddie has taught me a lot, including how to launch my power from my leg, how I can give my opponent body shots, a lot of things. It makes me more skilled.'

    SOUNDBITE (Mandarin): Zou Shiming
    'I think this is very important to train through sparring. I remind myself to avoid all the power punches from my opponent and I also remind myself that this is not the Olympic Games, this is real, this is the professional boxing game here.'

    SOUNDBITE (English) Freddie Roach, Zou Shiming's Trainer
    'He learns quickly, he's learning all the time. He's a great student and, you know, anyone that is a two-time gold medalist you know he has to have talent and he picks things up very quickly and I think he'll be champion in a short time. I told Bob (Arum), I said within a year this guy will be world champion. And I know that's a fast track but I think with his amateur experience we can go that way."
