Heavyweight Zhilei Zhang for many is China’s biggest boxing star and he’s impressed in many of his wins lately.
He beat American Deontay Wilder last time out back in June of last year and returns this weekend on the big card in Saudi Arabia against Agit Kabayel.
Speaking ahead of the fight Zhang told Ring Magazine on X his training consists of:
“This week I’m planning on just training, eating and sleeping. Of course we are going to have some media workout and press conference, but other than that my whole plan is to eat, rest and train.”
It isn’t an easy fight this weekend against a dangerous undefeated German.
If he were to win, Zhang will be in the running for some very big fights later in the year.
As China is the biggest country in the world for population, getting a major fight for him potentially in China later in the year will be huge for boxing and the entire East, too.
Let the best man win however this weekend in a solid heavyweight fight on a brilliant card.
