British heavyweight Joe Joyce said that in the upcoming rematch with the interim WBO champion, the Chinese Zhang Zhilei he will be harder than in the first fight, which took place on April 15 and ended with a technical knockout defeat for him.
“Yes, I will definitely be heavier. I always try to watch my weight to stay a little lighter, but I didn't expect to be so light in my first fight with Zhilei. It was difficult to keep the weight off. Something in my diet didn't work for me. I'll eliminate that and the weight won't be a problem. I will go into this fight stronger and tougher, ”Boxing Social quotes Joyce.
Recall that the Zhilei-Joyce 2 fight will be held on September 23 in London.
