Joyce: "It's not over yet"

"Don't you want me to shut Fury up?" - shouted Zhang Zhilei (26-1-1, 21 KOs) immediately after a spectacular early victory to the fans in the hall. Second victory over Joe Joyce (15-2, 14 KOs) retained the opportunity for the Chinese to challenge the championship belt in the future. The Chinese challenged Fury, the WBC champion, and by taming Joyce twice, he secured his position as the WBO mandatory challenger.

“I said that I would finish the fight even faster than the first time, and I did it. I have demonstrated Chinese strength again,” Zhilei added.

“It’s not over yet, I still have a lot of fuel left in the tank. I need to take a short break and I’ll be back,” Joyce reassured his fans after the second early defeat in a row.
