I am most curious to see how Zhang handles Kabayel's body work.

it would be more encouraging seeing Zhang do some road work and cardio, we all know he's got skills and power but his lack of stamina is his huge weakness.

And that will be his downfall

Duggum and the gimp have no problem singing the praises of such a modern marvel as the Han giant.

2 rounds and two punches and then it's a real gas if you know what I mean.

They can marvel as much as they want but the Big B ANG has a horrible engine and at this point of his career, he ain’t able to fix that

While there is no denying Zhang's power, size and technique, his stamina and age are about to be exposed. I've been very impressed with the smarts and technique of Kabayel, who at his best is an extremely measured, calculating tiger.

Zhang will definitely land on Kabayel with something heavy, because he always does. The question is how good is Agit's chin? Can he take the heat in the first six rounds or not? If he can take the heavy shots upstairs, Zhang is going to be in trouble from Kabayel's heavy shots downstairs.

If Kabayel's corner called me and asked me to come up with a fight plan (and they never, ever do, go figure), I would tell them to use Agit's handspeed to pepper Zhang's body from the opening bell. Forget the head. All bodywork, quick jabs, hooks, combinations to the body, and keep moving. Lots of chipping away with the occasional heavy blow. Pull that plug and drain the tub as fast as possible, and make Zhang walk him down non-stop. Maybe by round 5 or 6 Zhang's chin will be exposed and we can find out what kind of beard he has.
If Zhang's consensus perceived weakness is his gas tank, apply maximum pressure on the body and make him do roadwork around the ring.
