“China needs this fight. This is beyond my understanding, but the whole country needs such a sporting event, an evening of professional boxing of this level. My country will be proud of me. China will like it, if, of course, Usyk agrees to fight in China,” Zhilei said in an interview with ProBox TV.
Let us remember that Zhilei last performed in September, knocking out Joe Joyce in the third round. It was later revealed that the 40-year-old veteran would be out until early next year due to injury.
