    Joyce has always been praised for his chin, but Zhang also has a helluva chin... I was impressed how he just shrugged off the Juggernaut's attacks and made him pay for it over and over again. Not somebody who Fury wants to exchange with... here I see him reverting to the herky-jerky style he used on Wladimir. Curious to see how Zhang will react to the feints, angles, and movements of Fury. I gotta give Fury the advantage when it comes to stamina. His strategy could be to box safely for the first half of the fight, conserve his energy, wait for Zhang to punch himself out, and then launch a full-scale assault when he begins to show signs of fatigue.

      Zhang is undefeated with wins over Hrgovic(who is going to beat Usyk easy) and Joe Joyce. he has the best recent resume in HW.
      Hrgovic sucks and you're also forgetting Zhang's pathetic draw against Jerry Forrest.

        Zang's problem is he's not one punch knocking out these guy's. He relies on accumulation and he has just enough power to hurt them but not knock them out.

        Fury might get wobbled early, but Zhang won't put him away. Then what will he do when Fury makes adjustments?

          To be honest, is Fury even proven the best?

          I mean, saying he is better than guys like Hrgovic, Zhang, Makhmudov, whoever is pure theory.

          I am pretty sure all these guys beat Whyte and Chisora.

          Wilder is a bum that can land.

          Outside Klitschko fight more than 7 years ago nothing separates Fury from other guys.

          Not to mention his pathetic fights with Schwarz and Seferi.

            You are full of pathetic triangle theories.

            Yes in theory Fury beats everybody, but his last good win is Klitschko in 2015.

              I have a feeling if Joyce fights to his capacity, he wins the rematch. I think Joyce fought sub-par. Fury absolutely destroys Zhang.

                While this is true, I think this is an indictment on the actual talent of the HW division.

                  Just because you don't lead with a right hand, does not necessarily mean your right hand is exceptionally slow. The key to throwing a lead right isn't even speed; It's the ability to throw it without telegraph. A great example of this is Bernard Hopkins. I don't recall anyone ever saying Bernard Hopkins exceptional handspeed. Yet, he had an excellent lead right hand. Why? Because it was "sneaky".

                  Bottom line; I will never say that Fury is an exceptionally slow heavyweight. He's not the fastest, but he has great reflexes and coordination for a man his size. And I'm not a Fury fan.

                  Comparing Joe Joyce's handspeed to Tyson Fury's handspeed......well there is no comparison. Fury is easily 2-3 levels ahead of Joyce in both speed and timing. And again, I am FAR from a Fury supporter.

                    Enough to stop juggernaut Joe Joyce. Who has a better beard than Fury

                      But that's what it takes to KO Fury.

                      Cunningham and Wilder both dropped him but couldn't put him away.

                      I think Zhang can hurt him but that's as far as it goes. And he's definitely not winning a 12 round decision

                      His only bet is to put him away
