Comments Thread For: Zhilei Zhang Shocks Joe Joyce, Pounds Him For TKO in Sixth Round

[VislorTurlough]

Even if you are a Juggernaut fan - no other way to see that than Zhang winning even before stoppage. Zhang had a plan and executed it. And his beard is for real. Good for him. Has a life changing payday or 2 in his future

Matter of time before someone who doesn't have the defense of a statue in cement came along and used Joyce as a punching bag. And who doesn't punch like he is under water.

big fan of joyce, nice dude but with that defense it was kinda obvious that this would happen eventually, just like fundora last week. your face can't be your defense.

What a surprise, i suspected joyce’s slow and way of fighting was make zhang zhilei comfortable with that staright left, but forgot that eye is more crackable than achin, shouldve betted on thoes odds, but whatever ,cong**** to zhilei.
thoes fliud rotated thus extremely powerful lefts from a 270plus terracotta soilder alike would put the likes of glass chins like joshua wilder or hittable prospects like anderson and makhmudov to sleep in less than three rounds , get on the fury fight if hes not scared, and i bet he knocks fury tf out.

It just means all three of these guys suck. Zhang didn't even look ShoBox level against Jerry Forrest.

Before the Parker fight I said Joyce's come forward and block punches with his face style would catch up to him. It certainly didn't in that fight, but did it ever tonight.

Yep

he has a good chin and he took some solid shots in there and it took an injury to stop him...but he's been stopped in the amateurs a couple of times and people are only human, if you can be stopped once, you can be stopped agai, whether it's because you get chinned or because of injuries.

But you can't really afford to fight face first as a heavyweight because they can all crack enough to cause some damage if you're a static target.

Right? I had a feeling this would be the result with the sheer size of the Chinaman and the way he sits down on his punches. A good beard is an asset but not a game plan to be relied on.

Cong**** Zhang!

Kind of sucks right now that Usyk and Fury are holding all the belts

Zhang has no chance vs them, but vs Joshua and Wilder he would...but they won't fight him with no belts on the line...

MAYBE Joshua. Big maybe. But Joyce has a rematch clause and Joshua is fighting in December so...

As for Wilder... No chance Haymon lets him

Can't wait to see the IFL interview with old fish eyes on this.

Juggernaut's armor has been broken

Massive win for Zhang
