Well he has Fury. Maybe is Arum telling us between the lines he wants Fury - Zhang in China.

Zhang V Zhang in China

[Willow The Wisp]

I want Zhang to win but I doubt hes gonna get given a really big fight against one of the top names whatever happens in the Parker fight or whatever he does after that.

But....This IS a really big fight, involving two top ten names. Huge fight. And the Chinese will be watching in incredible numbers.

People who think Parker doesn't have a chance need to watch video of both fighters. I'm picking Parker to win. Parker is a busy fighter. Zhang is a good fighter, but he can't go 12 hard fought rounds. Joyce stood right in front of Zhang with no movement at all. that's fighting Zhang fight. Parker is way too smart for the that.

Parker is a busy fighter with relatively slow feet. which is why slow ass Joe Joyce landed 40% on him. LMFAO


imagine Zhang landing on Parker

Eh I dunno about that. A "huge" fight is when you're up against AJ, Fury, to an extent Usyk. I have no idea about China and what they're watching but on an international level Zhang/Parker sure as **** isnt all that big. Parker is not a big name and nor is Zhang really.

Zhang is even slower. Zhang was able to beat Joyce easily, because Joyce is also slow and doesn`t move his head at all.

It took Joyce 11 rounds to beat Parker. Zhang must do it much faster, or he likely loses the fight. Zhang sucks going distance.

It will be a good fight really. I expect Parker to go survival mode in first rounds and tire Zhang. If the fight goes past 8-9 I believe Parker wins.

Joshua -Zhang is a big fight. I can see it happen in near future.

Do you know if he has achieved state sponsorship yet? Those state buys are big money.



I too would love to see China in the mix. One selfish element of the Russo war that is frustrating for me is the lack of Russian hosting. Russian pageantry was top notch. Bet if given the situation China would throw some hella cool red and gold dragon **** pageantry.



Also, I wish boxers were a little more colorful with their nationalism. I mean like Apollo Creed kind of colorful. ****. y'all racist ... that word play kinda funny that way too though so I'll leave it but point of fact I meant idiosyncratic.




Edit- I had forgotten this was quoting Willow. My first question was for him, the rest was just open ended rambling. the "y'all racist" was meant rhetorically, not directed at Willow. Willow is not racist at all. Willow is a top notch researcher who is very knowledgeable, fair and even tempered.
