Comments Thread For: Zhang: If Hearn is Really Interested in Joshua Fight - Send Over a Contract!

[daggum]

I'm liking Zhang a lot these days. He's like a less shop-worn version of Luis Ortiz. They both want the smoke but few are brave enough to fight them. I think he stops Joshua if they ever fight.

that was just marketing by ortiz and pbc. ortiz had many chances to fight guys and he didnt take them. he only did in house fights

I think Zhang wins pretty easy. Depends if AJ is on his bike all night

If he does what he did in Ruiz 2 I could see Joshua winning a boring UD he would be heavily criticized for. This fight is about waiting for whether Zhang can land the big shot and hurt Joshua to a point where he doesn't want it and quits again.

lol that's like comparing GGG with Charlo. they are nothing alike.


Zhang is way more accomplished as an amateur and Pro.

Zhang is also a lot bigger and hits harder with a stronger chin.

There's always that person. Who do boxers have to beat to get any respect?

Dudes 40 years and bodied JJ twice.

The man who destroyed Parker and Dubois.

Even the top guys dont want to see this man in the ring as they respect his power and chin. So if top 10s respect him.

A scrub like you throwing salt must show his due.

Yeah he's beatable, but at what cost? He made that Croatian dude look basic.

And who do you think should fight him?

style make fight though... ruiz is a way better boxer than zhang!! zhang will have problems with "boxers".. he will do well against come forward brawler, but soon as he gets in with someone with movements, he's done!

ok.. i thought this dude had like a few losses already? turns out he only took 1 L so far...

Another hole for the boys to dig themselves out of or avoid. Joshua's 'legacy' will be wining the world title twice and if they can swerve the real threats , another title if they again go fragmented and there's another easy option like Charles Martin or an obese Andy Ruiz.It's impossible to support Hearn and Joshua , this could be a big money and interesting fight in multiple locations and as Zhang says there's history there two .It's just trying to get this pair out from behind the sofa....! When Hearn said that Joshua was going 'his own route' around Fury I'll bet even Joshua's deluded diehards didn't expect the Franklin and Helenis route and back to the ducking....truley embarrassing.

I just want someone to fight him. I think we all know Joshua likely will not as he doesn't need that level of risk with no reward. We can criticize him, but he is where he is in his career and Zhang offers nothing to AJ.

Sanchez, Jared Anderson, Wallin, DuBois, or maybe Arslanbek Makhmudov are fighters with a need to get get big wins to get in that "next man up" after Usyk-Fury is settled and the dust has settled on the Joshua, Wilder, and Filip Hrgovic fights in pole position. Those may be realistic and sensible fights for the 40 year old Zhang who cannot afford to sit idle.
