      if Zhang had all these fans, he would be having huge fights in places like Macau and boxers would be in a queue for a payday. Not to mention the Chinese are the most widespread nationality across the globe, he would be attracting good audiences wherever he fights if his popularity was as they say it is.

      so basically don't listen to the nonsense, the proof is in the facts and he barely sells a ticket, which is why he has been hanging around on under cards until age 40.



      East Asian men have massive penis envy.

      they don’t like Asian men who are big and robust. They like the small Asian guys. Their entire kung fu mythology is based on some midget beating up giants like Ip Man


      they would flock to see female sized zoumin and inoue over normal sizes ishida and giant elite heavyweight like Zhang. They don’t even bankroll his training camps

      prob watched his fights on illegal streams

        I started following him on Insta after the first fight. I just made two alternate accounts on Insta to follow him some more.

        WAR BIG **** ZANGH!

            He only had 23k after the first fight. I'll check a week from now. I bet it skyrockets to 60-70k!

              That’s not skyrocketing


              skyrocketing is at least 10X

              once again Chinese people prefer skinny female sized man like shiming


              they can identify with shiming zou


              a 6’6. 280 lb man to them is psychologically crushing when they are all 5’5

                It sounds great on the surface but then when you look at it relative to the size of the population its not so impressive.

                  Where did they watched? On their little illegal streams? Clips on china's version of tiktok? Boxing is not even big over there.

                    thats only because culturally they don’t follow boxing.


                    China is a Pacifist nation. They have absolute control of what their boys seee growing up. They don’t want them to be robust alpha male fighting men


                    they want them to be brain washed beta males who follow orders. Men that would stay in their spot and work for 15 hours a day, 6 days a week


                    ZZ didn’t even understand basic nutrition all the way up to his late 30’s in the forest fight. Dude had to do everything his own way. There’s no state sponsored doping program for him like in Russia.


                    russia and the west revere big robust fighters.

                    China shames them as animals. So kids don’t want to be fighters or athletes.

                      Zhang stopping Usyk in china would be epic.
