New Jersey roots here! Zhang is apparently boxing out of Bloomfield--closer to Newark--not Paterson. Unless the broadcast had the wrong town. It was odd to see. Zhang has thudding power. I’d like to see Ruiz-Zhang!

Great win for Zhang who showed his excellent pedigree. You don't medals in the Olympics and 2 World Championships if you don't possess good fundamentals and skill. Add to that Zhang was an awkward southpaw who had a big punch. I found it quite funny that at the last moment they struggled to find a pair of gloves large enough to fit his fists.

I remember my gushing how Joyce was going to be a problem for anyone in the heavyweights. Funny, how quickly that invincibility fades away after one bad performance. That’s boxing baby. I missed the whole damn fight and was looking for a replay last night, but made across the results before I had a chance to watch it.

It was always going to be a stand and bang fight. Fair play to Joyce he'll fight anyone - if only all the heavy weights had his attitude. I would still take Joyce to smoke AJ and Whyte, but whereas before I thought he had a 40% chance of beating Wilder, I'd now say its more like 20%.
