90 percent sure joe will just walk through the fires and use his flames to beat up zhang easily, but watching some of zhang's stuff back, that early power is serious. guys reacting with shocked faces like they've never been hit like it before. hrg and forrest did the same thing, before zz gassed

so there is some early intrigue here, though i think jj should get through it and then bust up an increasingly tired zhang

Yes, I noticed this.
Zhang has surprisingly fast hands and really hits. JJ is slow and gets hit.
Still a big obvious favourite, but not the total mismatch I originally thought.
Especially early on.

I'm really looking forward to it.
JJJ is the obvious favourite for obvious reasons but as you say Zhang is tough, fast handed and a banger.
Guaranteed to be a good fight, there will be big props for JJJ if he gets it done convincingly and early, but certainly don't rule out a surprise..

Joyce has a granite chin in contrast to those guys.

Really looking forward to this. Can Joe get to Zhang without eating too much leather early?

Would not be surprised with any outcome.

Seems a lot here have Zhang as a real live underdog.

He’s 6/1 with Paddy Power! (Joyce 1/10).

I bet on Zhang to win in rounds 1-6 at 20/1. Zhang is an upset waiting to happen and I will bet on him causing that upset until it does happen :lol:

I think Linardatou is a live underdog at around 5/1 also.

Nice 100-1 double there. I’ll have a pound on it just in case!

Zhang will start off strong and win a few of the early rounds, then he'll gas and Joyce will stop him round 9.

Quite simply because she won a split decision over Baumgardner who just won a split decision over Karen. Whether either were robberies I wouldn't try to argue but she was able to be atleast competitive with someone who was competitive with Mayer. It's not that I think she should be favourite, it's that I don't think the betting odds reflect the actual odds. I've not put a lot on it :lol:
