Kobe was frustrated with his performance in the third game, but he didn't think Gan Guoyang's advice was correct.
Muay Thai? Wrestling? Fighting Skills? Kobe wasn't interested; he firmly believed he was a basketball player, and nothing else.
Even though he was a fan of Ah Gan and got excited whenever he saw Ah Gan strike opponents in games, he still had his own persistence.
Of course, there was another possibility, which was that Kobe had no talent for fighting, and he didn't like engaging in things he wasn't good at.
This probably had to do with his upbringing; his life conditions were relatively privileged, and he rarely had physical confrontations with those around him.
He could retreat into his basketball world, using the means he excelled at to defeat himself; basketball was his weapon, the court was his battlefield.
And in more primitive violent scenes, Kobe was a complete novice.
