Interim WBO World Heavyweight Champion Zhang Zhilei stated that in case of victory in revenge with Joe Joyce wants to fight the WBC title holder Tyson Fury.

“In the last fight, I made history. The best legacy for history is to create a new history. To create a new history of China in the field of boxing is my mission and original plan. People have always thought that Chinese boxing cannot produce heavyweights, that Chinese boxers cannot compete with Europeans and Americans. I don't agree with this. I believe that Chinese boxers will take center stage on the international stage.

At the moment we don't have a long term plan, we are still focused on the fight with Joyce. After him, my next goal will be a fight with Tyson Fury,” Zhilei told Boxing Scene.

Recall that the rematch between Zhilei and Joyce will take place on September 23 in London.
