Round 10: Williams has been the gamest fighter of the night. Unloading in desperation and looking to turn the tide. Sheeraz is just too big and defensively sound right now. BIG RIGHT HAND COUNTR DECKS WILLIAMS. Bell saves Ammo, who staggers back to his corner with the blood flowing from his mouth.
“It’s a plant that makes you happy and hungry,” he says, admitting that it’s hard to give up and that he was not his best self around his family in the first week of training for the fight when he stopped using. “The family wasn’t friendly with me. I did not behave well.”
Picking up where he left off in their first fight, a confident Zhang flattened Joyce with a right hand toward the end of the round in front of the Londoner’s home crowd. The win and the manner in which he delivered it might earn Zhang a world title shot in 2024.

Zhang considered turning professional at 25 years of age after the 2008 Olympics, but could not until 2014. Dino Duva and Don King were the first promoters to approach Zhang. In August 2009, Duva and King arranged for Zhang to train at the Poconos. In September 2010, Duva arranged for Zhang to train in the Poconos to prepare him for the 2010 Asian Games. The highlight of that training were 11 bouts between the Chinese and American national boxing teams in Manhattan promoted as “Empires Collide”, which Zhang defeated Danny Kelly Jr 16:8 in the main fight. Zhang dominated in all domestic amateur heavyweight competitions from 2005 until 2013. He was finally released by the Henan Provincial Combat and Weightlifting Center after he competed in the 2012 Olympics and won the gold medal for 2013 National Games of China.

A youtuberből lett bokszoló, Jake Paul 2018-ban szállt ringbe először, eddig tíz meccséből kilencet megnyert, igaz jobbára korábbi ketrecharcosok ellen. Egyetlen vereségét tavaly februárban szenvedte el, amikor a brit bokszoló, Tommy Fury kiütötte.
The home fighter was stunned, looking helplessly at his team. He once again came unstuck against the hard-hitting southpaw, and looked a shadow of the fighter who knocked out 14 of his first 15 opponents.
Mike Tyson awed the world with his boxing skills in the ring in the 1980s. But in the 1990s, he started making headlines for the wrong reasons. On Feb. 10, 1992, he was convicted of raping Desiree Washington, an 18-year-old beauty pageant contestant.
While this sort of flash snowstorm would encourage some to opt for an easier day on the treadmill, Zhang had no issues making the 20-minute drive from his home in Bloomfield to get in his work with head trainer Shaun George.
“For my last fight, 60 million people in China tuned in to watch that, I believe we’ll make more history this time, I’m expecting 100 million, I have 1.4billion people behind me and supporting me, let’s make it happen. I’m fighting for my country.”
In a video, boxing fans can witness Paul getting a face tattoo, and he rises to reveal it’s the same one that Tyson has donned for years. “You heard it right, motherf*cker. I’m fighting Mike Tyson, b*tch,” Paul declared as he showed off his new tattoo. However, it might be a fake and only for promotion. That’s what fans believe.

You’ll also see in bing.com its icon fill up over on the right side of the screen, and you’ll get a helpful tooltip on the left side.
Zhang was scheduled to fight Filip Hrgović in an IBF title eliminator on 7 May 2022. However, Hrgović pulled out of the fight on 2 May, after his father died and his training suffered. Scott Alexander was chosen as the replacement on the Canelo Álvarez vs. Dmitry Bivol undercard, with the fight being dropped from the co-main to the undercard. Zhang won the bout via first-round knockout. His fight against Hrgović was rescheduled for 20 August 2022, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on the undercard of Oleksandr Usyk vs Anthony Joshua II. On that night, Zhang knocked Hrgović down in the first round with a big right. After a close-fought battle over twelve rounds, the judges awarded the fight to Hrgović with two scores of 115–112 and one of 114–113, in what was described as a “generous” decision by broadcaster Sky Sports after a “bizarre” performance by Hrgović.
