Zhang Zhilei (25-1-1, 20 KOs) made a lot of noise in the heavyweight division by defeating Joe Joyce (15-1, 14 KOs). Now the Chinese challenge Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs), although first he will have to give revenge to the Olympic medalist from Rio.

There is no official information yet, but the rematch between Zhilei and Joyce will almost certainly take place on September 2 in London. This information was recently confirmed by the Chinese himself. And if he wins for the second time in a row, Fury, the reigning WBC world champion, could be next in line.

"King of the Gypsies? More like a gypsy queen. I am ready for Fury and I can fight him at any time. I will destroy this guy,” Zhilei announced.
