    Random thought, what is so wrong but at the same time so right about this rematch halfway into 2023. Just two top ten guys who already had many doubters watching other "top" guys with another eye. They took the headlines no one intended for them, game tough scrap and then are running it back immediately.

    Look...right now this division is a stagnant joke. Champs in name only barking about fighting mma guys, circus bears or God knows what at this point, former champs talking their way out of mutual and needed top contender match ups and other former champs sitting on the sideline content to wait on some "magical Christmas lottery in Dubai" . It's really quite sad. So glass up for Zhang and Joyce I say. I honestly have more anticipation and respect for the two of them mid 2023 than the rest of the CF of a division.

    A lot of good points above. But it comes to something when we feel we have to praise 2 fringe fighters for actually doing what they’re paid to do.
    Not just this fight , but it is a perfect example, neither of them is a champion, and there was no controversy, so what the fuck need is there for a rematch ?
    The real problem is the governing bodies are weak as piss and are only interested in their commissions.
    I watched Carl Froch on YouTube yesterday and although he’s full of self righteous bullshit, every now and again he makes a decent point. He had a list of the top 25 HW’s in the world , and not one of them had a fight scheduled! He acknowledged Jared Anderson fighting Charles Martin this weekend , but Anderson wasn’t on this list.
    How the fuck can the division go forward if nobody fights ffs? It’s a fucking disgrace and guess who suffers from it? Yep, the fans.
    We’re left to debate whether Fury is better than Usyk or if AJ could beat him blah blah blah.
    Total bullshit.
    Former Undisputed 4 belt Prediction champion. Still P4P and People’s Champion.

    Man, this is gonna be a good one! Joyce is out for redemption and ready to give it his all. Zhang obviously put on a stunning performance last time, so we'll see if he can take him the distance this time. Can't wait to see how it all plays out. Ready for September 23!

    Zhang says he wants a shot at Fury should he inflict another defeat upon Joyce.

    “After Joyce, fighting with Tyson Fury would be my next target,” he told CGTN Europe.

    “Last time I made history, the best inheritance of history is to create new history. Creating a new history of the Chinese in the field of boxing is my mission and my original intention.

    “People always think Chinese boxing can’t produce heavyweight boxers, and Chinese boxing can’t compete with European and American boxing. I don’t agree. I believe Chinese boxing will definitely occupy the most central position on the international stage.”

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
