    Comments Thread For: Zhilei Zhang: Joe Joyce Hasn't Fought Anyone Like Me, I Have Power To Hurt Him

    By Manouk Akopyan - Heavyweight contenders Joe Joyce and Zhilei Zhang will square off on April 15 at the Copper Box Arena in London, as Joyce looks to prove himself as a bona fide top-five contender, while Zhang aims to separate himself from the fringe of the top ten.

    I actually like Jimmy Wang Yang. He says all the right things & i believe he should have been awarded the victory in the Hrgovic eliminator. He is getting another big fight. Even if he improves his stamina I’m not sure he can keep up to Joyce for 12 rounds. I’m curious if his power is legit. Joyce is certainly there to be hit. Joyce is nearing 38 & how long can he can he keep taking big punches before his punch resistance fades? Parker landed a lot of huge bombs & that must have taken something out of him. Well you would think that but Oliver McCall took bombs until he was near 50 without going down so who really knows until fight night?

      Zhang is legit, but Joyce is ironclad.

        I like Zheng he beat hrgovic that was a robbery. This will be each other’s biggest test in their careers. That said I think joyce takes this. There could be some rocky moments tho if he falls in love with his chin. He can’t take the punches from Zheng that he took from parker. This is a closer fight then people think and Zheng is a live dog

          I see Zhilei Zhang's nickname reported on Boxrec as "Big ****," but if he wins this fight, I propose that he be from now on known as "ZZ Top."

            I'm not even bs I never knew Zhang lost to Hrgovic on the cards wtf.. I watched that fight and Hrgovic was basically turning his back walking away in certain moments and looking at his corner as if he didn't want to be there and then suddenly in the mid rounds he started fighting back

            Zhang easily did enough to win so I must have skipped the judges results that night thinking it was a forgone conclusion...

                The Juggernaut will keep coming full steam and finish him after round 6 by brutal knockout.
                Yup this is the most likely outcome once Zheng gasses he’s in trouble. He’s got power and some skills for a few rounds tho joe gotta be aware

                  Zhang powr is good but not quite sure how good the little dude kept getting off of floor with him, but Zhang weren't well that might was he? But Zhang is an olympian so that is good, but he's older than Joyce even.
                  But will be good

                    Joyce has faced far better opposition than Zhang, hasn't he?
