Chinese heavyweight Zhang on Deontay Wilder power after stepping in the ring with one of the biggest punchers ever.
Many thought that Wilder hurt Zhang early in the fight at the weekend just gone.
Not the case apparently.
When asked if he was the biggest puncher he ever faced after the fight, he had a surprising answer on Wilder’s power.
Speaking to Michelle Joy Phelps of Title Sports Network, Zhang said:
“Not as hard as I thought (Wilder’s punch) but it possibly was because he didn’t unleash the power because I didn’t feel it. It is what it is.”
Many think Wilder is now coming to the end of his career.
That will be up to Wilder of course.
What a career from starting boxing as a way to provide for his daughter to hitting boxing’s pinnacle.
To travelling the world as a world champion.
To being in some of the biggest heavyweight fights of this era.
