Just when you thought Zhang (26-2-1, 21 KOs) could be a contender to take over the division at the advanced age of 41, he put out an inconsistent performance in a loss to Parker three months ago. You just don’t know what you’re going to get out of Zhang: his two strong performances vs. Joe Joyce or the kind of mediocrity he displayed in his draw with Jerry Forrest.
In September 2006, a year after his retirement, Tyson announced that he would embark on a world tour of exhibition fights billed as “Mike Tyson’s World Tour” in a bid to overcome the debt he was in at the time. His first bout lasted for four rounds and took place at the Chevrolet Centre in Youngstown, Ohio, on October 20, 2006, against former professional boxer and Tyson’s sparring partner Corey Sanders. With 6,000 fans in attendance, the fight failed to live up to expectations and saw the crowd often booing with displeasure. This would be the only exhibition fight of the tour to take place.
Zhang’s focus is firmly on proving that his one-sided victory over Joyce, which ended via a technical knockout in the sixth round of April’s contest, was more than just a one-off. If he’s successful on Saturday night, he says he wants to test himself against the division’s elite fighters.
They appeared to be in different weight classes Saturday, too, as Zhang outweighed Wilder by 68.2 pounds — at 282.8 compared with Wilder’s 214.6. There is no weight limit in boxing’s heavyweight division.

“This fight was easier than I had expected,” said Zhang who travelled from his US basecamp to challenge the 37-year-old Joyce with a stunning pro record of 15-win clean sweep. “I have been working so hard and now I get the reward.”
YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is set to face heavyweight legend Mike Tyson in an exhibition 168 boxing division match on July 20. The event will be broadcast exclusively on Netflix and held at the 80,000-seat capacity AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys.
George saw something different. Back in Jersey, George worked to fine-tune Zhang’s skills. Chin tucked lower. Hands held higher. “At the same time, not change him so much where he doesn’t know how to use his feet,” says George. “Because he’s actually really quick on his feet. But you guys don’t know yet. He has pretty good hand speed, but you guys are actually just noticing now.”
Paul, whose second pro fight was on the undercard of Tyson’s exhibition clash with Roy Jones Jr in 2020, has now fought twice this year already having also beaten Ryan Bourland with a first-round stoppage in March.

The 26,000 seat soccer stadium played host to the undisputed heavyweight championship fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk on May 18. It was also the location of Anthony Joshua’s fight against Francis Ngannou in March.
Throughout the 4th and 5th rounds, it seemed as though every left hand that Zhilei threw landed o Joe’s head. The Brit even wobbled for a few seconds. However, the ‘Juggernaut’ surprisingly managed to secure the 5th round in his favor.
“We definitely expect more views this time,” says Lane. “But the timing of the fight doesn’t help us, it’s 5-6am in China. We really hope that moving forward we can have a big fight that’s shown at a better time for Chinese fans, but we’re very happy with how many people are watching him, he’s become a big star.”
Tyson’s face tattoo has sparked countless conversations, debates, and even controversy. It challenges the status quo and invites people to question their own perceptions of beauty and self-expression.
Two months after his victory over Kartozia, Hrgović was scheduled to fight Rydell Booker for the vacant IBF International Heavyweight title o November 7, 2020, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, in Hollywood, Florida, in his return to the United States. Hrgović entered the bout as a -10000 betting favorite, while most odds-makers had Booker at +1400. He justified his role as the betting favorite, stopping Booker with a flurry of punches in the fifth round.

Round 10: TWO BIG RIGHTS from Richards. Instead of boxing and preserving his lead, Hutchinson is trading with him. It looks like he’s fading—another right from Richards.
