probably wont happen, usyk was already a high risk lower reward, if he beat usyk everyone would have just said he was too small.
If he beats Zhang, everyone will just say he was old, but Zhang will always have a punchers chance at minimum and even better than that with AJ on the decline.
Ruiz has been pricing himself out lately, hell he should go fight zhang but ruiz only sells 70k ppv and wants way too much moneyh
If Fury-Usyk gets cancelled for some reason, this iconic picture of Fat Andy looking down victoriously against his conquered foe (Joshua's hype at this point was through the roof with Brits) should define this HW era lol
Don't see Ruiz stepping up to fight Zhang either. Or anyone, for that matter. Most overrated "champ" in the division. He's scrappy and clearly has power, but no discipline out of the ring. He'd be much more worth a big paycheck if he'd fought and won against Wilder and AJ both, but he's busy pricing himself out of every fight.
IMO Zhang could potentially be the best current heavyweight - we saw how Fury struggled in parts with pillow fisted southpaw wallin, I think Zhang would push Fury to the limits, especially considering he is a power puncher and the fact that he gets his shots of quickly when in range. Hrgovic had to get off the canvas and Joyce got KO'd twice... Fury has a good defence but I'd imagine he'd have to get off the canvas a few times if Zhang connected flush in a hypothetical fight. Zhang also has a solid chin. Yes his stamina is suspect but he is usually able to critically hurt his opponent by then.
