Zhang Weili demonstrates Chinese women's power

Chinese athlete Zhang Weili made history with a record-high striking differential in the women's Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday.

Upon winning, she introduced herself to spectators as Zhang Weili from China, drawing loud cheers. The world will not forget her victory or her nationality in a hurry now.

Zhang is already a legend, not just because she won, but also because of her hard work and her fighting spirit. Unlike other contests, the UFC allows the player to choose his/her favored form of martial arts, and Zhang chose different methods against different competitors, including boxing and wrestling, among others.

Along the way, Zhang has been growing and gaining new abilities. Her fighting spirit is commendable, the reason why some are already calling Zhang a legend.

However, it will be more appropriate to say that she is a legendary Chinese female athlete who has impressed the world with her performances.

At the International University Sports Federation World University Games 2023 held in Chengdu, Sichuan province, from July 28 to Aug 8, several Chinese female athletes won applause, such as Wu Yanni with her performance in the women's 100-meter hurdles competition.

In the Tokyo 2021 Olympics and Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, too, there were many female Chinese athletes who became stars in the public field. The success of these female athletes is direct evidence of women's growing power in China. Unlike in the West where women players have to struggle to find a place and get noticed, Chinese women are competing equally in all sectors.

With hard training and ample support, they can make miracles and show the world that they are not inferior to men in any field.
