Kim, Yong-bi

金 竜飛

OPBF bantamweight champion. Former Lieutenant of the Korean Army. Turned professional at the age of 33.
He has maintained a strict diet for more than 20 years, consisting of three biscuits, a soft-boiled egg, and some fresh fruit in the morning. He might occasionally have a cup of lemon tea in the afternoon. But after that, he won't eat anything else until he gets his three biscuits again the next morning. He stated that his stomach is about as big as that of a 5-6 year old.
Kim is still traumatized by the Korean War, which he experienced at the age of 5. He committed his first murder when he was trying to get some food from a wounded soldier, but unknowingly, the soldier he killed was his own father. The soldiers who found out about it pitied the child and let him join the army. After that incident, he never ate until he was full and lost the instinct to eat. After the war, Kim also snaps at the sight of blood. After every boxing match, he washes his hands for longer than an hour. He does this to wash away the blood on his hands, which only he sees.
His boxing style is cold and very prudent, unlike Joe's.
