He was up at 8 and ready to fight.
He was up, he definitely wasn't ready to fight.
We only saw it from the back. I'd like to see a replay from the front angle
Did you see his head and eyes as he was bouncing off the canvas? I'm so glad he wasn't allowed to carry on

Such a terrible thing we never saw AJ v Wilder. For the fans and for AJ. Wilder would have been his marquee win.

Zhang is such a dangerous dude. Looks awful then bang. Wilder hasn’t looked good since leaving Breland. Malik Scott is his pal not a trainer. His style has been changed so much.

I've seen the KO on Twitter. That first punch didn't land fully, it didn't look like a massive shot.
The second one was brutal.
Wilder's legs were all over.

That's surely it from Wilder now.

They're not that bothered about boxing I don't think.
I read he gets around 20m views
It's not much in a country this size and for what he is - a top ten heavyweight contender - silly tiktok videos of cats dancing gets hundreds of millions of views here - nobody really cares about Zhang though a fight with Joshua or Fury would sell out a stadium in Beijing.
Who was that olympian with the movie star girlfriend? He had a massive following until he was found wanting a few times

I like Dave Allen’s call on who should fight who next…

Parker vs Aj 2 for the interim (or real) WBO

Zhang vs DDD for the interim (or real) ibf.

I do think that’s the best way to slice it.

They have a few 'big stars' badminton, table tennis, the swimmer Sun Yang, Yao Ming of course and that sprinter who was the first Asian to run a 100 meters in ten seconds, what is popular here is 'esports' those nerdy little fuckers sell out stadiums here. :lol:

Don’t know why he started dancing
His balance is awful generally but the punch did graze the chin and those ones can have a big effect.

Any southpaw who is well schooled and has power is dangerous. Andy Lee made a career out of having a right hook counter.

Hrgovic has TERRIBLE stamina.
Dubois will get smashed by AJ.
Brief but accurate. :salut:
At least we are finding out these guys. In the recent past they wouldn't even be fighting each other. Hrg, a guy close to prime has 4 busy rounds in him and he's gasping.
Wonder who gets to find out Jared Anderson now?

That was zou shiming, Olympic hero who turned pro late with Freddie roach and had arum salivating at conquering the Chinese market. He fought in macsu on Pacquiao undercards but just didn't punch hard enough at elite level and came undone.

The huge zhang is surely more marketable but he's an old man who has only just come good so not sure what traction he has overseas.
