On Saturday, two weeks before my fortieth birthday, Zhang Zhilei (24-1-1, 19 KOs) will fight against Joe Joyce (15-0, 14 KOs). In case of victory, a boxer from China may become a mandatory contender for the WBO belt.

“My goal is to open up the market for other Chinese boxers. This fight can bring me closer to my dream of winning the heavyweight championship. We are both Olympic medalists, about the same age, almost the same weight and about the same size. We both hit hard too, so it's going to be a good fight. One second, one hit can change everything,” Zhilei said.
