Zhilei Zhang Offers To Treat Anthony Joshua To The Big Bang!


In his latest tour of duty, heavyweight contender Zhilei “Big Bang” Zhang (27-2-1, 22 KO’s) jumped back in the win column in stunning style. Following his majority decision loss to Joseph Parker three months previously, Zhang obliterated one-time heavyweight goliath Deontay Wilder. Armed with this win, Big Bang would most like to face two-time heavyweight champion Anthony “AJ” Joshua (28-3, 25 KO’s).

This is what Zhang laid out in a brief Q&A with Fight Hub TV:

“I have options – Joe Parker rematch; AJ doesn’t have an opponent yet, so I’ll bang him.”

UK VS CHINA?

For his part, Joshua is on a two-year, four-fight win streak since losing back-to-back bouts to now undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk. Interestingly enough, on the same card that Zhang was defeated by Parker, Joshua snagged a sensational second round knockout of MMA superstar Francis Ngannou. With both heavy-hitters both back in the win column, a clash does make a great deal of sense.

Big Bang versus AJ also almost guarantees an exciting concussive battle that will almost certainly end in another thrilling knockout. For these reasons, there is little reason for anyone not to want to see this competitive, high stakes duel. So, let’s hope that AJ shares mutual feelings about a potentially devastating collision!
