According to Sky Sports, the rematch between Joe Joyce (15-1, 14 KOs) and Zhang Zhilei (25-1-1, 20 KOs) may take place in China. Negotiations are said to be ongoing.
In April, Zhilei sensationally stopped Joyce, who was considered the undisputed favorite before the fight, and entered the ring as a mandatory contender for the WBO belt. Last week, the Briton officially announced that he wants to take advantage of the rematch clause that was included in the fight contract and enter the ring with his offender for the second time.
Meanwhile, the name of Zhang Zhilei appeared in the media in the context of a possible fight with Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs).
